五體悔前朝　三屈懺中夕
鳴椎誡旭旦　哀我苦勞役
引目寓金言　悲傷塵垢積
咄哉形非我　嗟往常沈溺
踟蹰歧路危　揮手謝中析
洗滌歸誠懺　皎潔凌雲釋
蕭索業苦離　昇陟隨緣益
雖未齊高蹤　且免幽途歷

With the five parts of my body I repent before dawn;
Three times bowing down, I confess at midnight.
Sounding the mallet admonishes at daybreak;
Pitying my bitter, weary toil.
I turn my gaze to lodge upon the golden words;
Grieving over the accumulation of dust and defilement.
Alas! This form is not me;
Sighing for having constantly drowned in the past.
Hesitating upon the perilous diverging roads;
I wave my hands, bidding farewell to halfway division.
Washing and cleansing, I return to sincere repentance;
Spotless and pure, rising above the clouds to be released.
Desolation: karmic suffering is departed;
Ascending, I benefit according to conditions.
Although not yet equal to the lofty traces,
I temporarily escape traversing the dark paths.
