「祇園精舎」 平家物語原文より
祇園精舎の鐘の声 諸行無常の響あり
娑羅双樹の花の色 盛者必衰の理をあらはす
おごれる人も久しからず 唯春の夜の夢のごとし
たけき者も遂にはほろびぬ 偏に風の前の塵に同じ

GION SHOJA
―The first passage of Heike Monogatari; the Tale of the Heike―
The bell of the Gion Temple tolls into every man’s heart to warn him that all is vanity and evanescence.
The faded flowers of the sala trees by the Buddha’s deathbed bear witness to the truth that all who flourish are destined to decay.
Yes, pride must have its fall, for it is as unsubstantial as a dream on a spring night.
The brave and violent man―he too must die away the end, like a whirl of dust in the wind.
