Answer Mr. Cui in Dou Shui

Deep in the night, bamboo stops the falling snow
Solitary lamp, books upon my long desk.                                                                      Not ready to change and meet the doctrine of wuwei
Again have to live with unoccupied leisure.

 

Notes:

Wuwei (无为):  Literally means without action, without making, without doing, without effort.  For more information see the category “Artistic and Philosophical Foundations” at this website.
