The small stream in our courtyard isn't flowing with babbling water, but rather a dry stream.
Small bridges and charming houses
It's the yearning of countless people
The courtyard has its own
How can we miss the stream
Without the allure of water
Yet it possesses a more profound charm
Winding and twisting streams above
Covered with a thick layer of sand
Seen from afar
The sand is the flowing stream
Rushing towards the distance
Scattered pebbles
Like rocks from the riverbed
Enhancing the rapid flow of the stream
A stone bridge spans the Han River
Yet it brings peace of mind
At least no need to wade through the water
Some large stones stand in the dry stream
The stream is like a sea of clouds
The stones are the towering peaks reaching the clouds
Immerse your mind in it
Almost like ascending to a higher realm
A feeling of drifting in illusion
Whether there is water or not is unimportant
As long as she is there
The stream remains the stream
Quietly flowing in my courtyard
Even in my heart
Filled with ancient Zen
Forever flowing without cease
