Meeting with Bandits




Ignorant of my true self,

I wandered in the depths;

now I break like a bird from the net,

searching for the world of Bodhi.

Confronted by my bandit lord,

am I to turn aside in fear?

Death by the sword

means the bright land for me;

not much of a merit hill

to erect a mansion on.
