僧祐前禮最勝尊　稽首清淨無比法  
次歸離垢應真僧　三寶慈護永住世  
像末少信信不純　邪見迷沒陷眾苦  
三藏遐曠難究尋　懈怠障礙令法沒  
故集本師源緣記　經律傳證增信根  
仰承大士誓願心　敢厝弘意於後世  
願同見聞隨喜福　法燈延照盡來際

> Sengyou bows first to the Most Victorious Honored One,  
> and knocks his head before the pure, peerless Dharma;  
> next he takes refuge in the defilement-free arhat Saṅgha.  
> May the compassionate protection of the Three Jewels abide forever in the world!  
> In the Semblance and Final ages faith is scarce and impure;  
> false views bewilder and drown beings, plunging them into manifold sufferings.  
> The Tripiṭaka is vast and vast, difficult to investigate thoroughly;  
> laziness and hindrances cause the Dharma to perish.  
> Therefore I have collected the records of the origins and conditions of the Original Teacher,  
> verifying through sūtras and vinayas to increase the roots of faith.  
> Looking up in reverence to the resolution and vows of the mahāsattvas,  
> I dare to entrust this grand aspiration to future generations.  
> May those who see and hear it share the merit of sympathetic joy,  
> and may the lamp of the Dharma extend its radiance until the end of all future time!
