願採優曇華 願燒旃檀香
供養千佛身 稽首禮定光
佛生何以晚 泥洹一何早
不見釋迦文 心中常懊惱
"I vow to pluck the udumbara flower, / I vow to burn sandalwood incense, / To make offerings to the bodies of a thousand Buddhas, / And bow my head to worship Dīpaṃkara. / Why was the Buddha born so late? / Why did he enter nirvāṇa so early? / Not seeing Śākyamuni, / my heart is ever grieved."
