12.32

汝等勿抱死屍臥　種種不淨假名人
如得重病箭入身　諸苦痛集安可眠
如人被縛將去殺　災害垂至安可眠
結賊不滅害未除　如共毒蛇同室宿
亦如臨陣白刃間　爾時云何而可眠
眠為大暗無所見　日日欺誑奪人明
以眠覆心無所見　如是大失安可眠

"Do not sleep embracing a dead corpse,
a temporary human designation of various impurities!
Like one with a severe disease, an arrow penetrating the body,
when all bitter pains have gathered, how can you sleep?
Like a person bound and led to execution,
when disaster is about to arrive, how can you sleep?
The thieves of the fetters are not yet slain, the danger not yet removed,
as if lodging in the same room with a venomous snake,
or like standing in battle amid naked blades—
at that time, how could one sleep?
Sleep is a great darkness in which nothing is seen;
day after day it cheats and deprives people of their clarity.
With sleep covering the mind, nothing is seen;
with such great loss, how can you sleep?"
