幽人創奇境。
遊客駐(寄)行程。
粉壁空留字。
蓮宮未有名。
鑿池泉自出。
開徑草重生。
百尺金輪閣。
當川豁眼明。

Someone who liked seclusion built this marvelous place
now sightseers and tourists can stop and rest awhile
they write their words in vain upon the white-washed walls
in the palace of the lotus their names cannot be found.
the pond is dug in such a way that the spring flows naturally
the path is made so well that grass grows lush beside it
the Golden Wheel Pavilion is hundreds of feet high
and it faces the river— clear, eye-catching, bright.
