Black, White, Yellow and Gold, Beware!!
Flowers and grass, leaves of autumn.
Black and white, turn to shades of yellow and gold.
These are the days and lonely nights of zazen.
Still I see Mumon sitting in the tree facing his moon
As the wind blows, the candle bends and the makyos begin.
The winding Mountain Path, BEWARE!!!!
