待悟_Waiting for Awakening

深陷世間人我是非見解中
處處偏差　不及一一指出
只能繼續覺道的行持
等待這些見解的幻滅
執消後的醒悟

勸醒的話早已說盡　一次又一次
依舊不醒
無謂的勸告應當停止
默默中守著慈悲
轉為向佛菩薩的代禱

Waiting for Awakening　Yutang Lin

Deeply entrapped within worldly views of persons and affairs
Here and there, infested with biases, impossible to pinpoint them all
One can only continue with enlightening activities
To wait for the disillusion of all such wrong views
And the awakening that arises after the cessation of grasping

Words of advice to wake up had long since been exhausted
Again and again
Unawakened remains the same
Pointless advices should just stop
In silence compassion sustained
And turned to praying to Buddha and Bodhisattva for universal awakening
