FOR NIRVANA 108 ZEN SIJO POEMS CHO OH-HYUN
introductory by KWON YOUNGMIN
Associate professor of English and Asian studies at SUNY New Paltz.
21 WAVES Regarding the sutras deep into the night, I look up at the dark night sky, Listen, all alone, to the cry of the distant sea- The 1,000 sutras, the 10,000 treatise, All just waves blown in the wind. 22 WHAT THE NORTHEAST WIND SAID-1 They¡¯re hauling it away, they¡¯re hauling it away The ocean¡¯s untimely red tide, it¡¯s bubbling froths, The mounted bandits of this winter night are hauling it all way 23 WHAT THE NORTHEAST WIND SAID-2 At an intersection in Seoul¡¯s Insadong a tall, shadowless tree Roots in the night sky branches in the ground With a single sprouting leaf it covers the whole of the cosmos 24 WHAT THE SOUTHEAST WIND SAID Someone is keeping a cocky silence, and this suffocation, shaking the parched sky, this whole body, is disrupting the depth of my mid-day nap. 25 AMDU-DROWNED MAN Ancient Rules for Everyman 3 Pull him out and pull him out- the net is still empty; in the ocean of Tripitaka, where countless sentient beings have drowned, A boatman sits asleep at the prow with the sail furled down! 26 JOJU¡¯S GREAT DEATH Ancient Rules for Everyman 4 The Buddha-I should have sought him out earlier- is nowhere to be seen The executioner¡¯s blade-that life-giving sword- falls from an empty sky! 10,000 men have died- while one goes on living! 27 GAESA ENTERING THE BATH Ancient Rules for Everyman 11 Stop crying, stop crying, stop crying, you mourning woman. Life is the wind outside. And death? It is a bend in the river. This family¡¯s news, too- that inevitable parting at the end of life. 28 CHUIMI¡¯S ZEN GONG Ancient Rules for Everyman 13 Ask, and the askers of the questions will all die(if they ask in words). Far, and again near, in the broken house that cast away the sky; How many tens of thousands of people did you kill, sitting there with a single sharp word of the Buddha? 29 BUDDHA having let it flow-the water of the waterless river having let it flood- the water of the waterless river in the water of the waterless river, a log bridge floats away 30 CHILDREN OF NAMSAN VALLEY When the white snow-covered winter passes The children of Namsan Valley Go up into the mountain Where even ten li is unimaginably far And carrying a meadow bunting¡¯s egg nest They return Having eaten moonlight. |
