Muso Soseki (1275-1351)The third one crooked,
The second one leaning
Bamboos have grown
By the stone steps of the garden.
Every year
There are more of them
Until now they are a forest.
At the clack of a stone on bamboo,
Hsiang-yen shattered
The uncountable worlds,
But this garden
Continues in its green shade
Just as before
