### [4.102](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.4.102)

日月長懸　天曜常暉　晝金夜玉  
孰與玄期　出則晃朗　沒已還晞  
虧盈隱顯　晦朔旋璣　星辰列位  
福壽靈威　聖人建立　隨業增微  
雲龍相會　升降分離　擊動雷電  
寒暑應時

> Sun and moon hang perpetually, / Celestial luminaries shine ever bright. / Golden by day, jade by night, / Who can fathom their profound span? / Rising, they shine luminous and clear; / Setting, their light dries away. / Waning and waxing, hidden and revealed, / Dark and new moons turn upon the armillary sphere. / The stars and constellations arranged in their stations / Grant fortune, lifespan, and numinous majesty. / Established by the sages, / They augment or diminish according to karma. / Clouds and dragons meet one another, / Rising and descending, parting away; / Striking, they stir thunder and lightning, / Cold and heat respond in their seasons.
