Morning mists of abiding trees rise through the valley
As heavy stone clouds walk and weep
This is the way of trees, clouds and stones
A chirp pierces the silence
A spring frog announces an awakening
This is the way of ascending rivers
One is upright, giving full attention
As this is the only possession
This is the way of unfailing love
