Come to Hakubai
Where the air is fragrant
The water pure
And flowers bloom in the clear sky.
Come to Hakubai
The Way is hard to find.
The more you seek it, the more it will elude you
If you don’t try with your whole being
You’ll never find it.
Come to Hakubai
Where the stones talk
The trees walk,
And flowers bloom in the clear sky.
