What are the two sentences for Japan to donate materials?

1. The green mountains are together with the clouds and rain, but the bright moon has never been the two towns.

"The green mountains are together with the clouds and rain, how could the bright moon be the two villages" comes from the poem "Sending Firewood to the Emperor" by the Tang Dynasty poet Wang Changling. Wang Changling is known as the "Seven Masters". He was a Jinshi during the Kaiyuan Dynasty. He served as an official several times and was demoted many times. While he was demoted to Longbiao (now Qianyang County, Hunan Province), he wrote 8 poems, and this is one of them. At that time, his friend Chai Shiyu was about to go from Longbiao to Wugang. Before leaving, Wang Changling sent him off with this poem.

2. The mountains and rivers are in different places, but the wind and moon are in the same sky

“The mountains and rivers are in different places, the wind and moon are in the same sky” (even if they are in different places, they are still in the same world).

This verse once connected a major event in Sino-Japanese exchanges. About 1,300 years ago, King Nagaya of Japan, who respected Buddhism, made thousands of cassocks and gave them to monks in the Tang Dynasty. There are four verses embroidered on the cassock: The mountains and rivers are in a foreign land, the wind and the moon are in the same sky; I send this message to all the Buddhas, and I hope they will come back again.

Monk Jianzhen was deeply moved after hearing this, and decided to travel east to Japan to promote Buddhism. This incident is recorded in "The Biography of Tang Dahe's Shangdong Expedition".
