1. "Niushou Mountain"
Li Guosong
Going up to the Hidden Dragon Cave alone, you can see the tiger country from a distance.
Surrounding Bizhang for four days, the cold river is rolling.
The Jingbei is peaceful with Zen joy, and the incense lamp cools the Dharma pillar.
My thoughts are all gone, and I lean high against the white cloud window.
The first two couplets of this five-character poem describe the magnificent landscape that the poet saw from a high position on Niushou Mountain, which makes him appear broad-minded; the last two couplets describe the scenery of Hongjue Temple on Niushou Mountain, which contains Buddhist philosophy. meaning.
2. "A Narrative of Traveling to Niushou Mountain"
Chiang Zhuxiao
In the past, I traveled around the mountains and rivers with a strange spirit.
The mountains and rivers are not good, and the heart is full of sorrow.
Now that I am old, my travels are endless.
The blue sky leans against the cliff, and the solitary tung tree hangs from the white stone.
I took a little red car and headed west and back to the east at dusk.
Climbing to Niutou Ridge, floating clouds surround the sky.
The clear snow falls on the willows, and the spring breeze blows on the peaches and plums.
Translation: In the past, I traveled around the mountains and rivers with strange energy. Isn't the landscape good? I am worried about myself. From now until old age, travel is endless. The blue sky leans against the cliff, and the white tung trees are with me. Take a red car at night and head west again at night. Climbing to Niutou Ridge, floating clouds surround the sky. The clear snow falls on the willows, and the peaches and plums blow in the spring breeze.
3. "Niushou Mountain"
Wang Chong
Looking south to Xianyang, the young man's house is near Jingluo.
Shenyu Zhuangweifan, full of good energy.
What mountains are there? The mountains and rivers are beautifully embroidered.
There are thousands of rocks and thousands of valleys.
The stars turn over each other, and thunderstorms may occur.
The valleys are cooler and warmer, and the peaks are different from today to yesterday.
Translation:
Looking south to Xianyang, Shaoshi Mountain is close to Jingluo.
The temple of Zhuangwei Fan is surrounded by beautiful scenery.
What kind of dangerous place is this? Chuanlingli is embroidered wrongly.
It shrinks across thousands of rocks, and my mind is full of valleys.
The stars turn over each other, and thunderstorms may occur.
The valleys have different cool temperatures, and the peak shapes are different now and yesterday.
