10.48

大王太子今在於 閻浮樹陰下端坐
跏趺思惟入三昧 光明照曜如日山
此實真是大丈夫 樹影卓然不移動
唯願大王自觀察 太子相貌坐云何
譬如大梵諸天王 亦如忉利天帝釋
威神巍巍光顯赫 遍照於彼諸樹林

"Great King, the prince is now
sitting upright beneath the shade of the rose-apple tree,
cross-legged in contemplation, having entered samādhi;
his brilliant radiance shines like a sun-mountain.
He is truly a great man:
the tree's shadow stands firm and does not shift.
Would that the Great King go see for himself
how the prince sits and what his marks are like!
He is like the Great Brahmā king of gods,
and like Indra, lord of gods in the Trāyastriṃśa heaven;
his awe-inspiring majesty is sublime, his light ablaze,
shining everywhere through those woods."
