30.91

𨔴𨔴陵太清。照殿比東京。長影臨雙闕。高層出九城。栱積行雲礙。幡搖度鳥驚。鳳飛如始泊。蓮合似初生。輪重對月滿。鐸韻擬鸞聲。畫水流泉注。圖雲色半輕。露晚盤猶滴。珠朝火更明。雖連博望苑。還接銀沙城。天香下桂殿。仙梵入伊笙。庶聞八解樂。方遣六塵情。

Soaring loftily, it mounts the Great Clarity; / Illuminating the halls, it rivals the Eastern Capital. / Its long shadow falls across the double gate-towers; / Its high tiers rise above the ninefold city walls. / Layered brackets obstruct passing clouds; / Fluttering banners startle crossing birds. / Flying phoenixes seem to have just alighted; / Closed lotuses look as though newly born. / The layered rings face the full moon; / The chime of the bells imitates the call of the luan-bird. / Painted waters flow as gushing springs; / Depicted clouds show colors partly light. / In late dew, the basin still drips; / On morning gems, the brilliance shines ever brighter. / Though linked to the Bowang Garden, / It joins again the City of Silver Sand. / Heavenly incense descends upon the cassia hall; / Immortal Sanskrit chants blend with Yi-river reed-pipes. / We hope to hear the joy of the eight liberations, / And thereupon cast off passions for the six sense objects.
