Subject:Help with meaning of calligraphy frame
Posted By: Tony Fri, May 27, 2022 IP: 2607:fb90:bd02:4a16:
Dear friends,
It is a lot to ask… and I truly appreciate your help and time 🙏
If possible, please help with the meaning of the calligraphy or at least the essence of the writing.
Thank you very much 🙏
Tony

"Planting poetry" attributed to Monk Budai of the Southern and Northern Dynasties.
手把青秧挿満田
低頭便見水中天
身心清浄方為道
退歩原來是向前
己丑初冬畢然
Planting green seedlings all over the field
Looking down and seeing the sky in the water
Body and mind are peaceful and quiet for the path
It turns out that going backward is moving forward
In the Beginning of Winter of the Year of Earth-Ox (..2009) Accompplished
Upper seal,
沈　- Shen
Lower seal,
妝墨　-　Zhuangmo

With regards,
I.Nagy
