Spring comes without sound
clouds drift in no direction
the moon knows its place

Clap with just one hand
imagine you hear a sound
this is classic Zen

You seek certainty
then uncertainty appears
mind should be neutral.

Z is for zero
E is  for enlightenment
N is for 'no-mind'

Z is for zero
E is  for enlightenment
N is for 'no-mind'

Everyone is a wanderer
so few find their hearts' desire
the winds their fury unleash
the sun burns like wild fire.

There's no resting place
only slippery rocks, sharp ascents and mire
but there's no turning back
though the prospect is dire.

There's no food or water
for the hungry and thirsty wanderer
the night sky palely looks from asunder
the stars are weary and lose their glitter.

Everyone is a wanderer
destiny is the driver
but none wants to be a loser
this defines him in his perilous splendour.

Reason confuses
its foundations are shaky
intuition rules
