Deer Enclosure -Wang Wei (王維)

鹿柴

空山不见人
但闻人语响
返景入深林
复照青苔上

Lù chái

kōng shān bú jiàn rén
dàn wén rén yǔ xiǎng
fǎn jǐng rù shēn lín
fù zhào qīng tái shàng

Empty hill not see person
Yet hear person voice sound
Return scene enter deep forest
Duplicate light green moss on

Hills are empty, no man is seen,
Yet the sound of people’s voices is heard.
Light is cast into the deep forest,
And shines again on green moss.
