我的改进版翻译
我在许多奇怪的梦里，见过你们
I have seen you in many strange dreams.
你们因缘际会走到一起
It is Karma that brings you together.
怀着各不相同的目的
Yet different purposes you harbor.
你，欲成前任未竟之业
You, seeking complete merits,
修功德圆满
Set out for the unfinished task.
你，执着后世传颂之名
You, obsessed with fame,
求位列仙班
Crave a place among the gods.
你，想跳出三界之外
You, in search of peace,
图个清净自在
From the Three Realms you flee
还有你，无所挂碍
And you, the carefree,
吃饱饭便善哉善哉
Pursue nothing beyond rice and meat.
可我，早就看穿了你们
But I, have seen through all of you.
满嘴的情怀大义
Beneath your grandiose speech
一心的世俗名利
The vulgar lust creeps .
唱什么命不由天
To master your own destiny, you declare.
却笃信自己，才是天命之选
To be destiny’s Chosen One, you desire.
可悲的取经人呐
Pathetic Seekers of the Sutra
只要心中还有放不下的偶像
Abandon the Idol
终有一天, 它将化为修行路上无解的业障
Before it morphs into the Karma
它将化为修行路上无解的业障
That begets your tumble.
还记得盂兰会上
I recall, on Ullambana,
世尊说过
Proclaimed the Buddha
众生之苦
Every being of the world suffers
多因不守戒律，放情纵欲
From precepts broken and deeds licentious.
要我说，放屁
But I say, Bollocks
不杀生，仇恨永无止息
Thou shalt murder, lest feuds endure.
不偷盗，强弱如我何异
Thou shalt steal, lest the weak know not to kneel.
不邪淫，一切有情皆孽
Thou shalt commit adultery, for love thrives in debauchery.
不妄语，梦幻泡影空虚
Thou shalt speak the untruth, for only sweet dreams soothe.
不馋酒，忧怖涨落无常
Thou shalt drink wine, to fool the mind when emotions entwine.
不耽乐，芳华刹那而已
Thou shalt indulge in pleasure, for life is just ephemeral rapture.
不贪眠，苦苦不得解脱
Thou shalt indulge in sleep, for waking grants no relief.
不纵欲，诸行了无生趣
Thou shalt indulge in lust, lest the world is but dull dust.
