《菩提》惠能(638-713) 《Bodhi》Hui Neng, Sixth Chan Patriarch
菩提本無樹 Bodhi dwells not on trees
明鏡亦非台 Mirror reflections not illusion free
本來無一物 Buddha is serene always
何處惹塵埃 Dusts gather in no place Continue reading

《秋夜醉歸有感》牟融 (唐) 江紹倫英譯
《秋夜醉歸有感》《Returning Home Drunk in an Autumn Night》Mao Rong (Tang Dynasty)
銜杯誰道易更闌 Who says drinking hard can quell sadness in an autumn night
沈醉歸來不自歡 I return from the tavern drunk my sorrow still in bind
惆悵後時孤劍冷 Feeling helpless I stare at my sword idly hung on wall
寂寥無寐一燈殘 Sleepless I sit keeping company with my lamp fire in stall Continue reading

《萬丈》白雲守端 (1025-1072)
《Ten Thousand Feet》Bai Yun Souduan
萬丈寒潭澈底清 The ten thousand feet deep pool cool and pristine
錦鱗夜靜向光行 In the quiet night a colourful fish swims to pursue lighting
和竿一掣隨鉤上 With a swing of rod the fisherman catches a fish ending its life
水面茫茫散月明 The water calm when moonlight dances sending ripples wide Continue reading
《奧運狂人–中国农民》__陳柏齡(71)
今早打完球，見完浴足师傅（link) 東北佬彼得。徙步到對面「丁胖子」商場的「人人」酒家斬半隻鹽水雞，准備與老婆晚上浸条菜，吃雞。
這「丁胖子」商場我曾經描述過，在「刁民糸列之八 – 葡京教仔」。這裡是新移民聚集之地。奇人奇事時有發生。
今天我在商場，有幸再見「古怪人」。並且有照片為證。
一老者如白眉道人，老神在在，坐在他的黃包車前看世界日報，我走近一看，老者正在讀「南海之龍」奪冠新聞，我立刻對他萬分尊敬。 Continue reading

名山南峙此登臨 To the south side of this famous mount here I arrive
絕頂融峰敢摘星 On the summit I dare to pick a star raising hands high
眼底奔流湘水碧 Below my eyes the blue River Xian swiftly flows
巒巔追逐白雲深 To the depths of white clouds mountain ranges follow Continue reading
Near and Along River Danube __ Daniel Ho (67)
Europe is the favorite tourism destination for my wife and me. In Europe, the sceneries are beautiful or charming, the cultures and tastes are long-established, and the architecture of ancient buildings is civilized and exquisite. During our latest trip to Europe, we visited the Czech Republic and took a river cruise on the River Danube. What we saw during the trip is eye-opening. I also picked up a few timbits of European history (at least legends if not bona fide history) from the local tour guides. Continue reading
《數學詩詞人生的對話》江紹倫
蘇步青(1902-2003)是二十世紀的大數學家，專門微分幾何。在日本留學時期，他發現四次（三階）代數錐面，被稱為「蘇錐面」，影響深遠。
他生於淅江省平陽縣的一個農村，家貧，於放牛時站在私塾窗前聽書，很快便背誦《三字經》和《百家姓》。九歲那年，他父親揭盡全力送他上學以後，每一階段都受到恩師幫忙。1919年，他中學畢業，獲校長出資送他往日本留學。他用了三個月的時間掌握好日文，考入大學。這一份語文的天賦才能，讓他日後精通八種外文。
