前行法本裡面的，詩是我老人家譯的：

唐知玄禪師：

花開滿樹紅，花落萬枝空，唯餘一孕在，明日定隨風

A blooming tree appears beautifully red with all the flowers

Yet all the branches will be bare once the blossoms fall

A tiny floweret attempts to stay

With a gust of wind tomorrow, there will be just no way

隋靈裕禪師：

今日坐高堂，明朝臥長棘，一生聊已竟，來報將何息？

Sitting on an eminent seat in a grand hall today, 

Lying among the long thorns tomorrow.  

This life passes away so fast to the end

where will the karma take me next and where am I sent?
