大唐出震。膺圖龍飛。光宅率土。恩覃四夷。化高三五。德邁軒羲。高懸玉鏡。垂拱無為（其一）道法自然。儒宗隨世。安上作禮。移風樂制。發於中土。不同葉裔。釋教降此。運於無際（其二）神力自在。應化無邊。或涌於地。或降於天。百億日月。三千大千。法雲共扇。妙理俱宣（其三）欝乎此山。奇狀增多。上飛香雲。下臨澄波。靈聖之所降集。賢懿之所經過。存聖迹於危峯。竚遺趾於巖阿（其四）參差嶺障。重疊巖廊。鏗鏘寶鐸。馩馧異香。覽華山之神蹤。勒貞碑於崇崗。馳大唐之淳化。齊天地之久長（其五）。

The Great Tang arose from the east; / Receiving the mandate, the dragon soared. / Radiating over all the land, / Its grace extends to the four barbarians. / Its civilising influence surpasses the Three [Sovereigns] and Five [Emperors]; / Its virtue exceeds Xuanyuan and Fuxi. / Suspending high the jade mirror, / It lets its robes droop in non-action. (One) / The Dharma of the Way is spontaneous; / The Confucian school accommodates the world. / Pacifying superiors through the practice of ritual; / Transforming customs through the regulation of music. / Originating in the Central Plains, / It does not correspond to remote branches. / The teaching of Śākya descended here, / Operating in the limitless. (Two) / Divine power is unconstrained, / Accommodating transformations without bound. / Now welling up from the earth, / Now descending from heaven. / A hundred kotis of suns and moons, / The three-thousand great-thousand [worlds]. / The clouds of Dharma billow together; / The subtle principle is universally proclaimed. (Three) / How luxuriant is this mountain, / With marvels in abundance! / Above fly clouds of fragrance, / Below overlooks clear waters. / Where divine holy ones descend and gather, / Where the worthy and virtuous pass through. / Preserving holy traces on the perilous peaks, / Leaving footprints at the rocky slope. (Four) / Jagged ridges and peaks, / Overlapping tiers of rocky chambers. / Resonating with precious chimes, / Fraught with exotic incense. / Gazing upon the divine traces of Mount Gṛdhrakūṭa, / We carve the upright stele on the lofty ridge. / Extending the pure transformation of the Great Tang, / To endure as long as heaven and earth.
