from all your cares.
What is the difference between yes and no?
What is the difference between good and evil?
Must I fear what others fear?
Should I fear desolation
When there is abundance?
Should I fear darkness
When the light is shining everywhere?
In spring, some go to the park
and climb the terrace,
but I alone am drifting,not knowing where I am.
Like a newborn baby before it learns to smile,
I am alone without a place to go.
Most people have too much;
I alone seem to be missing something.
Mine is indeed the mind of an ignoramus
in its unadulterated simplicity.
I am but a guest in this world.
While others rush about to get things done,
I accept what is offered.
I alone seem foolish,
earning little, spending less.
other people strive for fame,
I avoid the limelight
preferring to be left alone.
indeed I seem like an idiot;
No mind, no worries.
I drift like a wave on the ocean
I blow as aimless as the wind.
All men settle down in their grooves,
i alone am stubborn and remain outside.
But wherein I am most different from others is
in knowing to take sustenance from the great universe.
