渺渺秦關百二重，車塵馬跡各西東。
渺渺秦关百二重，车尘马迹各西东。
Far and faint, the passes of Qin, the ‘hundred and two’, layer on layer;cart dust and hoofprints go their ways, to west and to east.
懸崖高閣參天柏，古道禪房化石松。
悬崖高阁参天柏，古道禅房化石松。
On the sheer cliff, a high pavilion and cypresses that pierce the sky;by the old road, a meditation hall and pines turned to stone.
半壁虺虯籠曉日，一池萍藻漾清風。
半壁虺虬笼晓日，一池萍藻漾清风。
Half the cliff is wrapped in snake-and-dragon coils that cage the morning sun;a pool of duckweed and pondweed ripples in the clear breeze.
