玄亮吐清氣　神響徹幽聾
登臺發春詠　高興希遐蹤
乘虛感靈覺　魚山振思重
摹寫天歌梵　冀布法音同
忘高故不下　颻颺數仞中
比丘歌聲唄　人畜振心忪
斯由暢玄句　即感雁游空
神期發筌寤　豁爾自靈通

The mysterious and clear emits a pure air; / The divine resonance penetrates the darkness of the deaf. / Ascending the terrace, one gives forth a spring intonation; / In elevated mood, one aspires to distant footsteps. / Mounting the void, it moves the numinous awakening; / At Mount Yu, deep thoughts are stirred again. / Transcribing the Brahmā chants of heavenly songs, / One hopes to spread the same sound of the Dharma. / Forgetting the heights, it does not descend, / Floating and fluttering within a few fathoms. / As the bhikṣu sings the melody of the pāṭha, / Humans and beasts are moved with palpitating hearts. / Because the profound phrases were chanted, / Geese were moved to soar through the void. / The spiritual expectancy awakes from the trap; / Clear and broad, it spontaneously attains divine penetration.
