大云寺赞公房 (一) by 杜甫

心在水精域，衣沾春雨时。 洞门尽徐步，深院果幽期。 到扉开复闭，撞钟斋及兹。 醍醐长发性，饮食过扶衰。 把臂有多日，开怀无愧辞。 黄鹂度结构，紫鸽下罘罳。 愚意会所适，花边行自迟。 汤休起我病，微笑索题诗。

In praise of the public room in Dayun Temple (I) (literal translation of Du Fu’s poem)

My heart is in the crystal water, my clothes are wet with spring rain. I walk slowly through the cave gate, and the deep courtyard is indeed quiet. I open and close the door, and the bell rings. The wisdom of the wise awakens the nature, and the food and drink are too much to help the weak. We have held hands for many days, and we are happy and have no regrets. The oriole flies through the net, and the purple pigeon descends on the net. I am foolish and I am slow to walk along the lace. Tang Xiu rests my illness and asked me to write a poem with a smile.
