Recognise the male but hold on to the female and be the world’s maid
Being the world’s maid don’t lose your Immortal Virtue
Not losing your Immortal Virtue be a newborn child again
Recognise the pure but hold on to the base and be the world’s valley
Being the world’s valley be filled with Immortal Virtue
Being filled with Immortal Virtue be a block of wood again
Recognise the white but hold on to the black and be the world’s guide
Being the world’s guide don’t stray from your Immortal Virtue
Not straying from your Immortal Virtue be without limits again
A block of wood can be split to make tools
Sages make it their chief official
A master tailor doesn’t cut
