Selections from Ven. Da Yu's "Songs of Emancipation"

Edited by Upasaka Chou
Translated by Yutang Lin

無性無相不著空，即是如來真實性。

Neither concerned with essence nor form,
Nor grasping to the notion of blank essence,
That is true essence of Tathagata.

直截根源當下了，摘葉尋枝漸教人。

Directly cut off the root and source and end all suffering at once.
Picking leaves and finding branches are people of gradual teaching.

自從踏遍涅槃路，了知生死本來空。

Since the road to Nirvana has been traversed,
Thoroughly know that life and death are originally vacuous.

夢裏明明有六趣，覺後空空無聖凡。

In dreams the Six Realms are vividly present;
After awakening all are vacuous, even saints and worldlings.

不變隨緣行無礙，自在隨心大安樂。

Unchanged yet following conditions, thus activities are without obstacles;
At ease and behaving as one feels like, therein is great peace and pleasure.

百千三昧無量義，只在尋常日用中。

Immeasurable meanings of hundreds and thousands kinds of Samadhi,
All are only to be found in ordinary daily-life usages.

無縛無脫無遮障，迷時自礙悟自通。

Without bondage and without escape, also without hindrance,
When deluded, it was self-hindered, and upon awakening, naturally dissolved.

我聞恰是空中風，何礙甚深大三昧！

What one hears is just wind in the sky;
How could it hinder the profound great Samadhi!

不因謗讚別冤親，方契本心平等相。

Not distinguishing enemy or friend by slander or praise,
Only then matches the equanimity of one's original mind.

痕垢盡淨光始現，心境雙亡性乃真。

Only after scars and dirt are all cleaned up will brightness appear;
Both mind and its objects have all become absent, only then the essence is genuine.
