Pear tree blossoms paint the pear tree white
Blossoms fill the garden white as snow
Snowflake petals fall to the ground
Now the garden is green once more

Pear tree blossoms paint the pear tree white
Blossoms fill the garden white as snow
Snowflake petals fall to the ground
Now the garden is green once more.
The myriad things in nature all will cease,
Only true emptiness will not perish.

Pear tree blossoms paint the pear tree white
Blossoms fill the garden white as snow
Snowflake petals fall to the ground
Now the garden is green once more.
Green and white are forms of duality.
Avoid the extremes to transcend birth and death

Pear tree blossoms paint the pear tree white
Blossoms fill the garden white as snow
Snowflake petals fall to the ground
Now the garden is green once more.
Green and white both reveal the true nature,
Spring winds fill the garden with Chan joy.
