何必 林钰堂

有缘相逢极稀罕,好聚好散各逍遥;
那来精神缠不休,何必逼迫入穷途。

精力极有限,纠缠太愚痴。相逢属有缘,聚散蜻点水。好来又好去,何必追穷途?

No Need Yutang Lin

Indeed rare to have the karmic connection to meet;
Get together and go separate ways nicely to enjoy.
Whence the energies to entangle in endless cycles?
Why bother to chase others into a dead-end street?

Comment:

Our energies are very limited; entanglement is too ignorant. Encounters are due to karmic connections; meetings resemble dragonfly's touching water. Get together nicely and separate likewise; why need to chase into dead-end alley?
