Lyrics & section notes
[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
北海若曰:「井蛙不可以語於海者,拘於墟也。
夏蟲不可以語於冰者,篤於時也。
曲士不可以語於道者,束於教也。
[Verse 2]
今爾出於涯涘,觀於大海,乃知爾醜,爾將可與語大理矣。
天下之水,莫大於海,萬川歸之,不知何時止,而不盈,
尾閭泄之,不知何時已,而不虛,春秋不變,水旱不知。
[Instrumental Interlude]
[Verse 3]
此其過江、河之流,不可為量數,而吾未嘗以此自多者,
自以比形於天地,而受氣於陰陽,吾在天地之間,
猶小石小木之在大山也,方存乎見少,又奚以自多?
[Instrumental Outro]
