Beneath high cliffs - Han Shan

Beneath high cliffs I live alone
The clouds and mist last all day
Inside my hut it might be dim
But my mind is free of noise
I passed through a golden gate in a dream
My spirit returned when I crossed a stone bridge
I left behind what weighed my down
My dipper on a branch click clack

	- Han Shan
		(translation by Red Pine)
