紫 阁 东 林 居 士 叔 缄 赐 松 英 丸 捧 对 欣 喜 盖 非 尘 侣 之 所 当 服 辄 献 诗 代 启
碧 涧 苍 松 五 粒 稀
侵 云 采 去 露 沾 衣。
夜 启 群 仙 合 灵 药
朝 思 俗 侣 寄 将 归。
道 场 斋 戒 今 初 服
人 事 荤 膻 已 觉 非。
一 望 岚 峰 拜 还 使
腰 间 铜 印 与 心 违。
Zi Ge Dong Lin Ju Shi Shu Jian Ci Song Ying Wan Peng Dui Xin Xi Gai Fei Chen Lu Zhi Suo Dang Fu Zhe Xian Shi Dai Qi
Bi jian cang song wu li xi
Qin yun cai qu lu zhan yi.
Ye qi qun xian he ling yao
Zhao si su lu ji jiang gui.
Dao chang zhai jie jin chu fu
Ren shi hun shan yi jue fei.
Yi wang lan feng bai huan shi
Yao jian tong yin yu xin wei.

Bluish-green canyons with green pine trees possessing their five-part, pollen-laden twigs
One can collect the pollen only with approaching clouds and dew moistened clothes
In the evening a group of immortals gather to make their deity medicine
At dawn I think that some of my ground-based companions could use
some of these pills too.
A Daoist vegetarian regimen and preparations before taking the first pill
Already cannot feel the weight of human affairs and the smells of mutton and fish.
One gaze into the distance, mountain mists around peaks, I send this appreciation to you
Carrying a government issued copper seal goes against my heart-mind.
