法藏長王宮。懷道出國城。願言四十八。弘誓拯群生。淨土一何妙。來者皆清英。頹年欲安寄。乘化必晨征。

Dharmākara grew up in the royal palace; / harboring the Way, he left the state’s citadel. / Making forty-eight vows, / by great aspirations he delivers the living. / How exquisite is the Pure Land! / Those who arrive are all pure and illustrious. / Where should one entrust one's declining years? / Borne on transformation, one must journey at dawn.
