1.
In the rains, there is torrential rain,
Which makes muddy
road.
There are a number
of travelers
to be bored by
this.
2.
In the same road, a Buddhist monk begs
for food.
His legs are
naked, cleaned, and strong.
But he does not
mumble like the rest of him.
Instead, laymen
feel boring, so the monk doesn’t get the food.
3.
Though laymen [have shoes], they do not
want to be dirty by mud.
Yet by discrimination
The monk leaves the crowd
like the full moon among the stars.
