大唐撫運 膺圖壽昌 化行六合
威稜八荒 身毒稽顙 道俗來王
爰發明使 瞻斯道場 金剛之座
千佛代居 尊容相好 彌勒規摹
靈塔壯麗 道樹扶疏 歷劫不朽
神力焉如

The Great Tang holds sway over destiny, / Receiving the mandate in flourishing longevity. / Its transforming influence traverses the six directions, / Its dread awe overawes the eight wildernesses. / India bows its head; / Clergy and laity come to pay homage. / Thereupon brilliant envoys were dispatched, / To behold this site of awakening (bodhimaṇḍa). / The adamantine seat (vajrāsana) / Is occupied in succession by the thousand Buddhas. / The noble countenance and marks / Were modelled by Maitreya. / The numinous stupa is magnificent; / The Bodhi tree flourishes luxuriantly. / Enduring through kalpas imperishable, / What can compare to its divine power?
