魚籃観世音菩薩



遥かな唐の金沙灘（きんしゃたん）
乙女の姿、光宿す金色の骨、輝き放ち

竹籠抱きて魚を売り
仏の教えを胸に秘む

仏の化身、観音の姿
信仰の灯、ここに灯りて
魚籃の菩薩、永遠に生きる

Fish Basket Guanyin Bodhisattva

I
In distant sands of ancient Tang,
A maiden’s form with light did shine.
With basket held, she sold her fish,
Her heart embraced the Buddha's wish.

Golden bones that brightly gleam,
A Bodhisattva's holy dream.
A flame of faith forever glows,
Fish Basket Guanyin's tale bestows.
