6.79

眾緣留住世,喜見幾生身,
猊座揚金石,宵庭立鬼神。
齋窓時過鹿,禪徑不知春,
江上傳燈者,誰將繼後塵。(詔下注御集之歲中秋二十有八日書)

Various conditions urge you to remain in the world; joyfully we behold the body of several lifetimes.
Upon the lion throne, your voice resounds like metal and stone; in the night courtyard, spirits and ghosts stand attendance.
At the fasting window, deer pass by at times; on the dhyāna path, one knows not spring.
Among those who transmit the lamp along the river, who will follow in your footsteps?
(Written on the twenty-eighth day of the mid-autumn month in the year when the imperial edict was issued to annotate the Imperial Collection.)
