watching the sun set...

結盧在人境, 而無車馬喧。
問君何能爾, 心遠地自偏。
採菊東籬下, 悠然見南山;
山氣日夕佳, 飛鳥相與還。
此中有真意, 欲辨已忘言。

【飲酒詩 (二十首)之五】晉·陶淵明


I have my cottage built in the human realm;
Yet noises of carriages and horses never bother me.
"How can this be possible?" If you ask me,
When my heart stays afar the place becomes secluded...
Plucking chrysanthemums at the east fence,
Mount Lu is beholded by my leisurely heart.
While the serene sunset is reflecting in mountain mist,
Flocks of joyful birds fly home together...
I know there's a profound meaning in all this,
But my mind just misses when I try to name it!
