夫竊見流沙一方
緇徒累百。其能秉惠炬建法幢。弘志教於即時。豎津樑于來世者。豈非我教授之謂歟。故能使二部律儀策勤而不倦三 □躅相繼而無窮。布薩之法洗滌于煩籠。住持之功繼明於動植。唯愿以斯自□無疆福因先用莊嚴。梵釋四王龍天八部。即愿福德逾增威光轉盛。消除疫癘利樂生靈。三邊無變怪之憂。百穀有豐登之樂。又用功德奉資聖神贊普。伏願明齊舜宇靡葉堯湯。補恩惠於八方。親鐱黎於一子。次用功德莊嚴我節兒上論。伏願榮高往歲慶益今辰。此用莊嚴都督社公。惟福逐年長壽逾金石。然後散沾法界普及有情。

夫佛日舒光無災不遣。般若流演河福不臻。今者啟八龍之寶藏。開五印之真文。會二百之梵輪。於三旬而轉誦者。則我當今聖神贊保。愿功德之端敘矣。伏惟聖神贊普道邁義軒。功超堯舜握圖腳歷秉錄匡時八表廊清廣弘。十善家以別崇妙福特豎芳。因建四季道場。希萬機永古。由是照自舟闕遠今燉煌每歲修崇恒為常戒。今茲會者則春季之終畢矣。是日也無田初綠桃苑讒紅。玉彩向終金言告罷。相此殊勝無疆福。因先用莊嚴。
夫應化無方神用不倦。恩沾動植。福洽生靈。天中之天獨擅其務。至於妙事豈足繁詞。此瑞之興抑有由矣。今則三春中律四序初分。絮拆南枝。冰開北岸
【現代漢語翻譯】 現代漢語譯本：僧眾數百。其中能夠秉持智慧之光，樹立法幢，在當下弘揚佛教教義，為未來世架設解脫之橋樑的，難道不是我們這些教授嗎？因此，能夠使比丘和比丘尼的戒律精進而不懈怠，僧團的修行者們前赴後繼，永無止境。布薩的儀式能夠洗滌眾生的煩惱，住持佛法的功德能夠像日月一樣照亮世間萬物。唯愿以此無邊無際的福德，首先用來莊嚴梵天、帝釋天、四大天王、龍天八部，愿他們的福德日益增長，威光更加強盛，消除瘟疫，利益眾生，使邊境沒有變亂的憂患，百姓有五穀豐登的喜樂。又用此功德奉獻給聖神贊普（吐蕃君主的尊稱），愿他的英明可以和虞舜比肩，功業可以和商湯媲美，將恩惠施於四面八方，像對待唯一的孩子一樣愛護百姓。其次用此功德莊嚴我節兒上論（吐蕃官員名），愿他的榮耀高於往年，喜慶增加到今天。再用此功德莊嚴都督社公（吐蕃官員名），愿他的福祿逐年增長，壽命超過金石。然後將功德散佈到整個法界，普及到一切有情眾生。
罷四季文
佛陀的光芒照耀，沒有災難不能消除。般若的智慧流淌，沒有幸福不能到來。現在開啟八龍（指八龍王）的寶藏，開啟五印（指五種手印或密法）的真文，聚集二百位僧侶的梵音輪轉，用三十天的時間來誦經，這是我們當今的聖神贊普（吐蕃君主的尊稱）所護佑的，愿功德的緣起在此敘述完畢。恭敬地希望聖神贊普的道德超過伏羲和軒轅，功績超越堯和舜，掌握政權，考察民情，秉持正義來匡扶時政，使天下太平，廣泛弘揚十善業，特別推崇微妙的福報，特別建立美好的因緣，建立四季道場，希望萬事萬機永遠長存。因此，從舟闕（地名）到遙遠的敦煌，每年都修繕崇敬，作為永恒的戒律。現在聚集的這次法會，是春季的結束。在這一天，田野剛剛泛綠，桃花盛開，玉的色彩接近尾聲，金色的言語宣告結束。以此殊勝無邊的福德，首先用來莊嚴。
佛的應化無處不在，神力永不疲倦，恩澤遍及動植物，幸福充滿眾生。天中之天（指佛陀）獨自承擔著這些事務，至於這些奇妙的事情，哪裡需要過多的言語來描述呢？這些祥瑞的興起，一定是有原因的。現在是暮春時節，四季的開始，柳絮從南邊的樹枝上飄落，冰雪在北方的岸邊融化。
【English Translation】 English version: Hundreds of monks gathered. Among them, who can hold the torch of wisdom, establish the banner of Dharma, propagate the teachings of Buddhism in the present, and build a bridge of liberation for future generations, if not we, the professors? Therefore, it can make the precepts of Bhikkhus and Bhikkhunis diligent and tireless, and the practitioners of the Sangha follow one after another, without end. The ceremony of Posadha can wash away the afflictions of sentient beings, and the merit of upholding the Dharma can illuminate all things in the world like the sun and the moon. May this boundless merit be used first to adorn Brahma, Indra, the Four Heavenly Kings, and the Eight Classes of Dragons and Devas, may their merits increase day by day, their majesty become more and more prosperous, eliminate plagues, benefit sentient beings, so that there is no worry of turmoil on the borders, and the people have the joy of abundant harvests. And may this merit be dedicated to the Holy Divine Tsanpo (title for the Tibetan Emperor), may his wisdom be comparable to that of Yu Shun, and his achievements comparable to those of Shang Tang, bestow grace upon all directions, and cherish the people like a single child. Secondly, may this merit adorn my Jier Shanglun (name of a Tibetan official), may his glory be higher than in previous years, and his joy increase to this day. Furthermore, may this merit adorn the Dudu Shegong (name of a Tibetan official), may his fortune increase year by year, and his lifespan exceed that of gold and stone. Then, may the merit be distributed to the entire Dharma realm, and extended to all sentient beings.
End of the Four Seasons Text
The light of the Buddha shines, and no disaster cannot be eliminated. The wisdom of Prajna flows, and no happiness cannot be attained. Now, opening the treasure of the Eight Dragons (referring to the Eight Dragon Kings), opening the true texts of the Five Mudras (referring to the five hand gestures or esoteric teachings), gathering the Sanskrit chanting of two hundred monks, reciting the scriptures for thirty days, this is protected by our current Holy Divine Tsanpo (title for the Tibetan Emperor), may the origin of merit be narrated here. Respectfully hoping that the morality of the Holy Divine Tsanpo surpasses that of Fuxi and Xuanyuan, his achievements surpass those of Yao and Shun, grasping political power, examining the people's conditions, upholding justice to assist in governing, making the world peaceful, widely promoting the Ten Virtuous Deeds, especially promoting subtle blessings, especially establishing good causes, establishing the Four Seasons Dharma Assembly, hoping that all affairs will last forever. Therefore, from Zhouque (place name) to distant Dunhuang, repairs and reverence are carried out every year, as an eternal precept. This gathering now is the end of the spring season. On this day, the fields are just turning green, the peach blossoms are in full bloom, the color of jade is coming to an end, and the golden words are announcing the end. May this supreme and boundless merit be used first to adorn.
The transformation of the Buddha is everywhere, and the divine power is never tired, grace extends to plants and animals, and happiness fills sentient beings. The Lord of Heaven (referring to the Buddha) alone undertakes these affairs, as for these wonderful things, where is there a need for too many words to describe them? The rise of these auspicious signs must have a reason. Now it is late spring, the beginning of the four seasons, willow catkins are falling from the southern branches, and ice is melting on the northern shores.
。廣法王之化跡冀彌千殃。揚大聖之辭榮悕臻萬善。於是不局月殿。夜擊霜鐘受集緇徒。競持幡蓋列四門之勝會旋一郡之都城。像設金容。云非鷲嶺。眉開毫月。花步蓮宮。傾市傾城搖山蕩谷。迦維厭欲豈用年哉。所冀四王護世百福。潛加攙搶掃于天門。疫癘藏於地戶。慶雲有世善色。凝空倒載干戈。修文偃武。總斯功德回奉龍天八部。惟愿威光恒赫神力無涯。災害不生禍亂不作。又持勝福上資聖神贊普。唯愿萬國納貢四海來庭。寶曆恒昌。金石比壽。又持勝福莊嚴節兒都督。唯愿壽命逾遠祿極萬鐘部落。使官遼門傳九戟。然後散沾法界普洎有情。賴此勝因咸登樂果。
行城文
我法王之利見也大矣哉。故降神兜率現影王城。觀妙色有苦於癰瘡。骸寶住乃逾于宮闕。御四魔而登正覺。居三界而獨稱尊。神化難量叵能談也。今者春陽今月地拆萠芽。鳥向含春風搖。抑於是豁開奈苑洞啟蓮宮。金相煥爛於四衢。銀毫暉舒於八極。隱隱振振如旋白飯之城。巍巍峨峨似繞迦維之闕。尊卑務集大小云奔。笙歌競奏而啾留法曲。爭陳而槽揆所冀百福被矣。千障云祛睹勝相兮獲因。瞻妙色兮生福。總斯多善。莫限良緣。先用莊嚴。釋梵四王龍天八部。唯愿增威力益神通。並妖氛驅疫癘。次持勝福奉用莊嚴。我當今聖神贊
【現代漢語翻譯】 現代漢語譯本： 廣法王（Guangfa King，指佛陀）的教化事蹟，希望能夠消除千種災殃。宣揚大聖（Dasheng，指佛陀）的辭藻榮光，期望達到萬般善事。因此不侷限於月殿（Yuedian，指寺廟），夜晚敲響霜鐘，召集僧眾。競相舉著幡蓋，排列在四門，形成盛大的集會，環繞著整個郡城的都城。佛像設定得金碧輝煌，彷彿不是在鷲嶺（鷲嶺，又名靈鷲山，是佛陀說法之地）。眉間毫光綻放，如同蓮花在宮殿中行走。傾城傾市，搖山蕩谷，迦維（Kāvil，指迦毗羅衛國，佛陀的故鄉）厭倦了慾望，哪裡需要等到晚年呢？所希望的是四大天王（四大天王，佛教護法神）護佑世間，百種福報暗中加持，使戰爭和災難從天門（Tianmen，指天界之門）掃除，瘟疫藏於地戶（Dihu，指地界之門）。吉祥的雲彩帶來世間的祥瑞之色，凝結在空中，使倒置的兵戈停止，修養文德，停止武力。將這些功德全部迴向給龍天八部（龍天八部，佛教護法神），只願他們的威光永遠顯赫，神力無窮無盡，災害不發生，禍亂不產生。又用殊勝的福報，供養聖神贊普（贊普，古代吐蕃王朝君主的稱號）。只願萬國來朝納貢，四海歸順朝廷。國運永遠昌盛，像金石一樣長壽。又用殊勝的福報，莊嚴節兒都督（Jie'er Dudu，古代官職）。只願他的壽命長久，俸祿達到極高的程度，部落的使者從遼門（Liaomen，指邊境）傳來九戟（Jiuji，古代兵器）。然後將這些功德普遍施與法界，普及到一切有情眾生，依靠這殊勝的因緣，都能登上快樂的果位。
行城文
我法王（Fawang，指佛陀）的利益顯現，是多麼偉大啊！所以從兜率天（Doushuai Tian，佛教欲界天之一）降臨，在王城顯現身影。觀察美妙的色相，卻有癰瘡的痛苦。將骸骨珍藏，勝過居住在宮殿中。降伏四魔（四魔，佛教指煩惱魔、五陰魔、死魔、天魔）而證得正覺，居住在三界（三界，佛教指欲界、色界、無色界）之中，獨自被稱為至尊。神妙的變化難以衡量，無法用言語來表達。現在是春光明媚的季節，大地裂開，萌芽生長。鳥兒向著春天歌唱，風兒搖動。於是豁然打開奈苑（Naiyuan，指寺廟），洞開蓮花宮殿。金色的佛像在四通八達的道路上煥發光彩，銀色的毫光在四面八方舒展開來。隱隱約約，熙熙攘攘，如同旋轉的白飯之城。巍峨高大，如同環繞迦毗羅衛國的宮闕。尊貴和卑賤的人都務必聚集，大人和小孩都像云一樣奔來。笙歌競相演奏，發出美妙的法曲。爭相陳列，槽揆（槽揆，古代祭祀用品），所希望的是百種福報降臨。千種障礙像云一樣消散，看到殊勝的佛像，獲得善因。瞻仰美妙的色相，產生福報。將這些眾多的善事，不限定美好的因緣。首先用來莊嚴釋梵（釋梵，指帝釋天和梵天）、四大天王（四大天王，佛教護法神）、龍天八部（龍天八部，佛教護法神）。只願他們增長威力，增加神通，驅逐妖氛，消除瘟疫。其次用殊勝的福報，奉獻用來莊嚴我當今的聖神贊普（贊普，古代吐蕃王朝君主的稱號）。
【English Translation】 English version: May the transformative deeds of the Guangfa King (Guangfa King, referring to the Buddha) dispel a thousand calamities. May the propagation of the Great Sage's (Dasheng, referring to the Buddha) glorious words lead to ten thousand good deeds. Therefore, not confined to the Moon Palace (Yuedian, referring to a temple), the frost bell is struck at night, gathering the monastic community. They compete to hold banners and canopies, arrayed at the four gates, forming a grand assembly that circles the entire capital city of the prefecture. The golden image of the Buddha is set up, as if not on Vulture Peak (Vulture Peak, also known as Gṛdhrakūṭa, where the Buddha preached). The light from the brow opens like a lotus in the palace. Overturning cities and towns, shaking mountains and valleys, Kāvil (Kāvil, referring to Kapilavastu, the Buddha's hometown) is weary of desire; why wait until old age? It is hoped that the Four Heavenly Kings (Four Heavenly Kings, Buddhist guardian deities) will protect the world, and a hundred blessings will be secretly bestowed, sweeping away wars and disasters from the Heavenly Gate (Tianmen, referring to the gate of heaven), and hiding epidemics in the Earthly Gate (Dihu, referring to the gate of the earth). Auspicious clouds bring the auspicious colors of the world, condensing in the sky, causing inverted weapons to cease, cultivating virtue, and ceasing warfare. May all these merits be dedicated to the Dragon Gods and the Eight Classes of Beings (Dragon Gods and the Eight Classes of Beings, Buddhist guardian deities), wishing their majestic light to be ever radiant and their divine power boundless, so that disasters do not arise and chaos does not occur. Furthermore, with supreme blessings, may we support the holy deity Tsanpo (Tsanpo, the title of the ancient Tibetan dynasty's ruler), wishing all nations to pay tribute and the whole world to come to court. May the imperial fortune be ever prosperous, as long-lasting as gold and stone. Furthermore, with supreme blessings, may we adorn the Jie'er Military Commissioner (Jie'er Dudu, an ancient official position), wishing him a long life and extremely high rank, with messengers from Liaomen (Liaomen, referring to the border) bringing nine halberds (Jiuji, ancient weapons). Then, may these merits be universally bestowed upon the Dharma realm and extended to all sentient beings, relying on this supreme cause to attain the blissful fruit.
A Text for Traveling the City
How great is the manifestation of the benefits of my Dharma King (Fawang, referring to the Buddha)! Therefore, descending from the Tuṣita Heaven (Doushuai Tian, one of the heavens in the Buddhist desire realm), he appears in the royal city. Observing the wonderful forms, there is the suffering of boils and sores. Cherishing the relics surpasses living in palaces. Subduing the Four Maras (Four Maras, referring to the afflictions, the five aggregates, death, and the heavenly demons in Buddhism), he attains perfect enlightenment, dwelling in the Three Realms (Three Realms, referring to the desire realm, the form realm, and the formless realm in Buddhism), and is uniquely called the Supreme One. The miraculous transformations are immeasurable and cannot be expressed in words. Now is the season of spring sunshine, the earth cracks open, and sprouts grow. Birds sing towards spring, and the wind sways. Thus, the Naiyuan (Naiyuan, referring to a temple) is opened wide, and the lotus palace is opened. The golden Buddha image shines brightly on the thoroughfares, and the silver light from the brow spreads in all directions. Faintly and bustlingly, like a city of swirling white rice. Towering and majestic, like the palaces surrounding Kapilavastu. The noble and the humble must gather, and the great and the small rush like clouds. The sounds of sheng and song compete, emitting wonderful Dharma melodies. They compete to display the Cao Kui (Cao Kui, ancient sacrificial items), hoping that a hundred blessings will descend. A thousand obstacles will dissipate like clouds, seeing the supreme image and obtaining good causes. Gazing upon the wonderful forms, generating blessings. May all these many good deeds, without limiting the good causes, first be used to adorn Śakra and Brahmā (Śakra and Brahmā, referring to Indra and Brahma), the Four Heavenly Kings (Four Heavenly Kings, Buddhist guardian deities), and the Dragon Gods and the Eight Classes of Beings (Dragon Gods and the Eight Classes of Beings, Buddhist guardian deities). May they increase their power and enhance their supernatural abilities, driving away demonic influences and eliminating epidemics. Secondly, with supreme blessings, may we dedicate them to adorn our current holy deity Tsanpo (Tsanpo, the title of the ancient Tibetan dynasty's ruler).
普。伏願壽永固等乾坤六幾賓四海。伏次用莊嚴節兒尚論麥及都督杜公為云爲雨濟枯涸。于明朝部落使諸官建忠貞于聖伐。然後上空窮空界傍枯十方。賴此勝因成正覺道。
行城文
應化無窮作用不倦。恩沾動植福洽生靈。天中之天獨擅其勢。至於妙事豈足繁詞。此會之瑞抑有由矣。今則四序將盡。三春肇來。送故納新。除災建福。冀清封壘保艾蒸黎。於是月殿不局霜鐘。夜擊爰集緇侶。悉索幡花出佛像。於四門繞重城而一匝儼然相好鷲嶺云非煥爛。毫光蓮峰降步傾城傾市蕩谷搖山舍衛逾城豈用年矣。即冀四王護世百福潛加攙槍掃于天門。疫癘藏於地戶。庶云布族喜色凝空。倒載干戈修文偃武。總斯功德回施龍天八部。惟愿威光恒赫神力無涯。災害不生禍亂不作。又持景福上資聖神贊普。惟愿萬國納貢四海來庭。寶曆恒昌金石比壽。皇太子殿下游雷遠震少海。長清夫人蘭桂永芳。妃嬪神花獻頌。又持勝福總用莊嚴我都督杜公祿極萬鐘。然後。
行軍轉經文
夫諸佛興悲無緣普備有情。見異感跡緣老故使歸向者福逐。愿生輕毀者禍隨心起。則知禍福自致非聖愛憎者與然。今此會轉經意者。則我東軍國相論掣脯敬為西征。將仕保愿功德之建修也。伏惟相公天降英靈地資秀氣。岳山作鎮謀略坐籌。
【現代漢語翻譯】 現代漢語譯本： 普（普遍）。伏願壽命永遠穩固，如同天地六合一樣，四海賓服。其次，用莊嚴的儀式，尚論麥及都督杜公，像云像雨一樣滋潤乾涸的大地。在明朝，部落的首領們，要對聖上的征伐保持忠貞。然後，向上窮盡空界，傍及十方。依靠這殊勝的因緣，成就正覺的道路。
行城文
應化無窮，作用不倦。恩澤沾溉動植物，福運覆蓋眾生。天中之天（佛）獨自擁有這樣的威勢。至於這其中的妙處，又豈是繁瑣的言辭所能表達的？這次法會的祥瑞，也是有原因的。現在正值四季將盡，三春伊始。辭舊迎新，消除災禍，建立福祉。希望能夠鞏固邊防，保佑百姓安寧。於是，月殿不再寂靜，霜鐘在夜晚敲響，聚集僧侶。拿出幡花，擡出佛像，在四門繞城一週，莊嚴的相好，如同鷲嶺的雲彩一樣煥爛，眉間毫光，如同蓮峰降臨。傾城傾市，震盪山谷，舍衛城逾城的盛況，又豈止一年？希望四大天王護佑世間，百福潛移默化地降臨，使戰爭消弭于無形，瘟疫藏匿於地下。希望祥雲遍佈，喜悅之色凝結在空中。倒置兵戈，停止戰爭，修養文德。將所有的功德，迴向給龍天八部。惟愿佛的威光永遠顯赫，神力無邊無際。災害不發生，禍亂不產生。又將美好的祝福，獻給聖神贊普（吐蕃君主的尊號）。惟愿萬國來朝，四海歸順。國運永遠昌盛，如同金石一樣長壽。皇太子殿下，聲威遠震如雷霆，如同少海一樣深不可測。長清夫人，子孫永遠繁盛。妃嬪們，如同神花一樣獻上頌歌。又將殊勝的福報，全部用來莊嚴我們的都督杜公，希望他福祿無邊。
行**經文
諸佛興起大悲心，不分彼此地普度有情眾生。看到不同的境遇，感應事蹟的緣由，年老體衰，所以使歸向佛法的人獲得福報。希望那些輕視譭謗佛法的人，遭受禍患，一切禍福都是由自己的心念所致，並非聖人有所偏愛或憎恨。現在這次法會誦經的意義是，我國東軍國相論掣脯，爲了西征的將士祈福，希望建立功德。希望相公您，天生英明，地蘊秀氣，像岳山一樣鎮守一方，運籌帷幄。
【English Translation】 English version: Pu (universal). Humbly wishing for longevity and stability, like the universe itself, with the four seas submitting. Secondly, using solemn rituals, Shang Lun Mai and Military Governor Du, like clouds and rain, nourish the parched land. In the Ming Dynasty, the tribal leaders should maintain loyalty to the holy war. Then, upwards exhaust the empty realm, and beside the ten directions. Relying on this supreme cause, achieve the path of perfect enlightenment.
Xingcheng Text
Responding to transformations without end, tireless in action. Grace benefiting plants and animals, fortune covering all living beings. The Buddha, the 'Heaven among Heavens,' uniquely possesses such power. As for the wonders within, how can they be expressed by verbose words? The auspiciousness of this gathering has its reasons. Now, as the four seasons are about to end and the three months of spring begin, we bid farewell to the old and welcome the new, eliminating disasters and building blessings. Hoping to strengthen the borders and protect the people. Therefore, the moon palace is no longer silent, and the frost bell is struck at night, gathering monks. Taking out banners and flowers, carrying the Buddha statue, circling the city once through the four gates, the solemn appearance is as radiant as the clouds of Vulture Peak, and the light between the eyebrows is like the descent of Lotus Peak. Overturning cities and markets, shaking valleys and mountains, the prosperity of Shravasti surpassing the city walls is not just for a year. Hoping that the Four Heavenly Kings will protect the world, and a hundred blessings will be added imperceptibly, so that wars will be eliminated invisibly, and plagues will be hidden underground. Hoping that auspicious clouds will spread, and the color of joy will condense in the sky. Inverting weapons, stopping wars, and cultivating virtue. Dedicating all the merits to the dragons, gods and the eight classes of beings. May the Buddha's power be forever glorious and the divine power boundless. May disasters not arise and chaos not occur. Also, offering good blessings to the holy god Tsanpo (title for the Tibetan King). May all nations pay tribute and the four seas come to court. May the national fortune be forever prosperous and as long-lived as gold and stone. May His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's prestige be far-reaching like thunder, and as unfathomable as the Shao Sea. May Lady Changqing's descendants be forever prosperous. May the concubines offer praises like divine flowers. Also, using all the supreme blessings to adorn our Military Governor Du, hoping that he will have boundless fortune.
Xing ** Sutra Text
The Buddhas arise with great compassion, universally saving all sentient beings without discrimination. Seeing different circumstances, responding to the causes of events, old age and weakness, so that those who turn to the Dharma receive blessings. Hoping that those who despise and slander the Dharma will suffer misfortune, all blessings and misfortunes are caused by one's own thoughts, not because the saints have any favoritism or hatred. Now, the meaning of reciting the sutras in this Dharma assembly is that Lun Chepu, the State Minister of our Eastern Army, prays for the soldiers of the Western Expedition, hoping to establish merit. Hoping that you, the Prime Minister, are born with intelligence and endowed with beauty, guarding one side like Mount Yue, and planning strategies in the tent.
每見北勇興師頻犯邊境。抄劫人畜暴枆田苗。使人色不安峰飆數舉。我國相慢然忿起。怒髮衝冠。遂擇良才主兵西討。雖料謀指掌。百無一遺。然必賴福資保其清吉。是以遠啟三危之侶遙祈八藏之文。冀仕馬平安永寧家國。故使虔虔一志諷誦金剛。濟濟僧尼宣揚般若。想此殊勝夫何以加。先用莊嚴護世四王龍神八部。愿使威光盛福力增。使西陳齊威北戎伏款。又用莊嚴行軍將相。伏願才智日新福同山積。壽命遐遠鎮坐檯階。諸將仕等三寶撫護萬善莊嚴。然後。
轉經文
我法王之利見也難可詳焉。其有歸依者果無不克矣。然今啟龍藏宅一心擊洪鐘邀二眾者。其誰施之。則我國相論掣脯敬為西征將仕保愿功德之所建矣。伏惟相公乃何岳降靈神威動物咸恩。出塞曰 撫俗安邊。一昨春初扶陽作[薩/女]摽棹人畜。由是大舉軍師併除兇丑。雖兵強仕勇。然福乃禍師。是以遠杖流沙精祈轉念。今者能事遐列勝福斯圓。總用莊嚴行軍將相即體。愿使諸佛護念使無傷損之憂。八部潛加愿起降和之意。然後人馬咸吉仕卒保康。各守垂永除征戰。然後散沾法界普及有情。賴此方因咸登覺道。

夫除災靜難者莫善於佛頂密言。集福延休者事資於行城唸誦。今者春陽今月寒色猶威。請二部之僧尼建白幢
【現代漢語翻譯】 現代漢語譯本： 常見北方遊牧民族屢次興兵侵犯邊境，抄掠人口牲畜，肆意破壞田地莊稼，使得人們惶恐不安，烽火臺頻頻告急。我國宰相雖然憤慨，怒髮衝冠，於是選拔賢能將才率兵西征。雖然運籌帷幄，料事如神，但仍需仰仗福德庇佑才能確保平安順利。因此，我們遙向三危山的僧侶們祈請，遙向龍藏經文祈禱，希望軍隊平安，國家永遠安寧。所以，我們虔誠一心誦讀《金剛經》，眾多僧尼宣揚《般若經》，想來這殊勝的功德，還有什麼能比得上呢？首先用莊嚴的儀式供養護世四天王、龍神八部，愿他們的威光更加顯赫，福力更加增長，使西方的陳國、齊國懾服，北方的戎狄歸順。又用莊嚴的儀式供養出征的將領和宰相，伏願他們的才智日益精進，福德如同山嶽般堆積，壽命長遠，穩坐高位。愿各位將士在三寶的護佑下，萬善莊嚴。然後。
轉經文
我佛法的利益顯現，實在難以詳盡描述。凡是歸依佛法的人，果真沒有不成功的。現在開啟龍藏，聚集一心敲響洪鐘，邀請兩類僧眾的人，是誰佈施的呢？就是我國宰相，恭敬地為西征的將士祈福，保佑他們建立功德。伏惟宰相您乃是名山降靈，神威震懾萬物，百姓都感念您的恩德。出塞是爲了安撫百姓，安定邊疆。自從今年春天開始，扶陽一帶的百姓開始耕作，但盜賊卻搶奪他們的牲畜。因此，我們才大舉出兵，剷除這些兇惡之徒。雖然我軍兵強馬壯，將士英勇，但是福德才是避免災禍的關鍵。所以，我們遠赴流沙，虔誠祈禱轉經唸佛。如今，我們已經竭盡所能，殊勝的福德也已圓滿。總用莊嚴的儀式供養出征的將領和宰相，愿諸佛護念，使他們沒有受傷的憂慮。愿八部神眾暗中加持，使他們生起降伏和睦的心意。然後，人馬都平安順利，將士都健康安康，各自安守家園，停止征戰。然後，將功德散佈到法界，普及到一切有情眾生，依靠這個方便法門，都能證得覺悟的道路。
置傘文
要消除災難，安定禍亂，沒有比佛頂密咒更好的方法了。要積聚福德，延長壽命，就要依靠行城的唸誦。現在是春光明媚的季節，但寒意依然存在，所以請兩部的僧尼建立白幢傘。
【English Translation】 English version: Often seeing the Northern nomadic tribes frequently invading the borders, plundering people and livestock, and wantonly destroying fields and crops, causing people to be uneasy, and beacon towers frequently sounding the alarm. Although our Prime Minister was indignant, his hair standing on end in anger, he then selected virtuous and capable generals to lead troops on a western expedition. Although he planned strategies and was resourceful, he still needed to rely on the blessings of merit to ensure peace and success. Therefore, we remotely pray to the monks of the Three Danger Mountains and remotely pray to the Dragon Canon scriptures, hoping that the army will be safe and the country will be forever peaceful. Therefore, we sincerely and wholeheartedly recite the Diamond Sutra, and many monks and nuns proclaim the Prajna Sutra. Thinking about this supreme merit, what could be better? First, we use solemn rituals to offer to the Four Heavenly Kings, Dragon Gods, and Eight Classes of beings who protect the world, wishing that their majestic light will be more prominent and their blessings will increase, so that the Chen and Qi states in the west will be subdued, and the Rong and Di tribes in the north will submit. We also use solemn rituals to offer to the generals and prime ministers on the expedition, humbly wishing that their talents and wisdom will improve day by day, their blessings will accumulate like mountains, their lifespans will be long, and they will sit firmly in high positions. May all the generals and soldiers be protected by the Three Jewels and adorned with all virtues. Then.
Turning the Sutra Text
The benefits of my Buddha-dharma are truly difficult to describe in detail. Those who take refuge in the Buddha-dharma will surely succeed. Now, who is it that opens the Dragon Canon, gathers together to strike the great bell with one heart, and invites two kinds of Sangha? It is our Prime Minister, who respectfully prays for the generals and soldiers on the western expedition, and blesses them to establish merit. Humbly, Prime Minister, you are a spirit descended from a famous mountain, your divine power awes all things, and the people all remember your kindness. Going beyond the border is to appease the people and stabilize the frontier. Since the beginning of this spring, the people in Fuyang have begun to cultivate the land, but thieves have plundered their livestock. Therefore, we have launched a large-scale military campaign to eliminate these evil people. Although our army is strong and our soldiers are brave, merit is the key to avoiding disaster. Therefore, we travel far to the shifting sands, sincerely praying and turning the scriptures. Now, we have done our best, and the supreme merit has been fulfilled. We use solemn rituals to offer to the generals and prime ministers on the expedition, wishing that all Buddhas will protect them and that they will have no worries about being injured. May the Eight Classes of deities secretly bless them, so that they will have the intention of subduing and harmonizing. Then, the people and horses will be safe and smooth, the soldiers will be healthy and peaceful, each will guard their homes, and the war will cease. Then, spread the merit to the Dharma realm and extend it to all sentient beings, relying on this expedient method, all can attain the path of enlightenment.
Placing the Umbrella Text
To eliminate disasters and stabilize turmoil, there is no better method than the secret words of the Buddha's crown. To accumulate blessings and prolong life, one must rely on the recitation of Xingcheng. Now is the season of bright spring sunshine, but the cold is still present, so please ask the monks and nuns of the two divisions to erect a white canopy.

夫睹相興善者無出于應化之身。穰災怯禍者莫過乎佛頂心咒。然無身之身故現身而齊難。無說而說說心咒而持危。盛事之興莫大於茲矣。今者燉煌之府內豎白法之勝幢。設佛頂於四門。使黑業之殄掃厥。今此會其誰施之。時則有二節兒岳牧杜公等。為城惶報安之所建也。唯節兒都督以慮燉煌西極境接北胡。躍馬控弦𡨥盜無準。恐芆踐稼穡百減衣食之源。九農匪登使萬人壞罄懸之念。所以互相設計務在安人。若論護國匡邦無過。建斯幢傘。即冀除災殃于不毛之地。並疫癘于無何有之鄉。五穀無霜雹之災。萬品登人壽之城。先資是福奉用莊嚴聖神贊普。伏願寶位永固金石齊年。四海澄清萬方朝貢。亦持此善莊嚴節兒都督為霜為雨濟枯旱。于明朝部落使諸官建中貞于聖代。又持是善亦用莊嚴。二教授阇梨。伏願極拔殊苦超出輪迴。壽等寒松福如春草。然後薄沾動植遍及無疆。賴此勝因登正覺道。

【現代漢語翻譯】 現代漢語譯本： 關於這五個地方，是誰捐資建造的呢？當時是有節兒都督，爲了全城百姓祈福，報答願望，建立了這個功德之處。恭敬地希望節兒都督公平地養育萬物，竭盡全力安定邊疆。恐怕疾病流行，災禍不斷發生，所以預先修行弘大的願望，建立良好的因緣。希望佛幢能使城市免於妖邪之氣的侵擾，豎立經幢以達到福祉。如今已經能夠使各種事情完備，願望得以實現，福報長久，難以估量。用這殊勝的功德，首先用來莊嚴梵天、帝釋天、四大天王、龍神和天龍八部。

大凡觀察相好而興起善念，沒有超過應化之身的。消除災禍，畏懼不幸，沒有超過佛頂心咒的。然而無身之身，所以顯現身來救濟苦難；無說之說，所以誦持心咒來化解危難。盛事的興起，沒有比這更大的了。如今在敦煌府內，豎立白法的殊勝經幢，在四門設定佛頂，使黑業消滅。現在這個法會是誰捐資建造的呢？當時是有二節兒岳牧杜公等人，爲了全城百姓祈求平安而建造的。希望節兒都督考慮到敦煌西邊與極西之地接壤，北邊與胡人相鄰，躍馬彎弓，盜賊沒有準則。恐怕踐踏莊稼，減少衣食的來源，農業歉收，使萬人產生飢餓的憂慮。所以互相商議，務必安定百姓。要說護國安邦，沒有超過建造這個經幢和傘蓋的。希望消除不毛之地的災殃，消除荒蕪之地的瘟疫。五穀沒有霜凍冰雹的災害，萬物登上長壽之城。首先用這福報奉獻給聖神贊普（tsan-pu，吐蕃君主的稱號），希望寶座永遠穩固，壽命與金石一樣長久。四海清平，萬方來朝。也用這善行莊嚴節兒都督，使他像霜和雨一樣滋潤萬物，救濟乾旱。在明朝部落，使各位官員在聖明的時代保持忠貞。又用這善行也用來莊嚴兩位教授阿阇梨（acarya，導師）。希望他們能夠徹底拔除各種痛苦，超出輪迴，壽命像寒冬的松樹一樣長久，福報像春天的草一樣茂盛。然後稍微沾溉動植物，遍及無邊無際。依靠這殊勝的因緣，登上正覺之道。

大凡延續吉祥，擴充套件喜慶，必定依賴於殊勝的經幢。 English version: Regarding these five places, who donated to build them? At that time, there was Commander Jie'er, who, for the sake of blessing the people of the whole city and fulfilling their wishes, established this place of merit. Respectfully hoping that Commander Jie'er fairly nurtures all things, and does his utmost to stabilize the border. Fearing that diseases would spread and disasters would occur frequently, he preemptively cultivated great vows and established good causes. Hoping that the Buddhist banner could save the city from the invasion of evil spirits, and erecting the sutra banner to achieve blessings. Now that it is possible to make all things complete and wishes fulfilled, the blessings are long-lasting and immeasurable. Using this supreme merit, first to adorn Brahma, Sakra, the Four Heavenly Kings, the Dragon Gods, and the Eight Classes of Gods and Demigods.
Text for Placing the Umbrella
Generally, observing auspicious signs and giving rise to good thoughts is unsurpassed by the manifested body. Eliminating disasters and fearing misfortune is unsurpassed by the Buddha's Crown Mantra. However, the body without a body manifests a body to relieve suffering; the speech without speech recites the heart mantra to resolve danger. The rise of great events is no greater than this. Now, within the prefecture of Dunhuang, a victorious banner of white dharma is erected, and the Buddha's Crown is placed at the four gates, so that black karma may be swept away. Now, who donated to build this assembly? At that time, there were the two Commanders, Yue Mu Du Gong and others, who built it for the sake of praying for the peace of the whole city. Hoping that Commander Jie'er considers that Dunhuang's west borders the extreme west, and its north neighbors the Hu people, with horses leaping and bows drawn, and thieves without rules. Fearing that they would trample on crops and reduce the source of food and clothing, and that poor harvests would cause the people to worry about hunger. Therefore, they discussed with each other, determined to stabilize the people. To speak of protecting the country and securing the state, nothing surpasses building this sutra banner and umbrella. Hoping to eliminate disasters in barren lands, and eliminate plagues in desolate places. May the five grains be free from the disasters of frost and hail, and all things ascend to the city of longevity. First, use this blessing to dedicate to the holy Tsan-pu (title of the Tibetan King), hoping that the throne will be forever stable and the life as long as gold and stone. May the four seas be clear and all nations pay tribute. Also, use this good deed to adorn Commander Jie'er, so that he may nourish all things like frost and rain, and relieve drought. In the Ming Dynasty tribes, may all officials maintain loyalty to the wise era. Also, use this good deed to adorn the two professors, Acarya (teacher). Hoping that they can completely eradicate all suffering, transcend reincarnation, and have a life as long as the pine trees in winter, and blessings as lush as the grass in spring. Then, slightly benefit plants and animals, extending to the boundless. Relying on this supreme cause, ascend to the path of perfect enlightenment.

。掃蘗除災要資于兒力。故使善住聞其增壽。慶喜克獲本心。魑魅畏之逃刑。天魔怖而求救。大哉神兒。無得而稱者歟。今屬和風動物蟄戶。將開幡蓋俳徊緇倫肅穆者何。所謂耶時則有我節兒。尚論及都督杜公等。並乃養人如子憂國同家。恐妖氛肆惡于城中。品物屢遭于逆厄。是以三陽令月啟三福于釋尊。四季初辰豎四門之利。總斯殊妙最上福田。盡用莊嚴梵釋四王龍神八部。伏願威光盛福力增。育黎無護軍國。我聖神贊普。唯愿聖躬堅遠。日往月來。寶住恒昌。天長地久。節兒都督松皇比壽。福慶相資。部落使諸官等。唯愿助理平和。惟清惟直。然後四時順五穀登。百殃除萬祥集。般若神兒諸佛所師。大眾□城一切普誦。
【現代漢語翻譯】 現代漢語譯本：掃除災禍需要藉助孩童的力量，所以讓善住（Śūnyatā，空性）聽聞以增長壽命，慶喜（Ānanda，阿難）能夠獲得本心。山精鬼怪畏懼而逃避刑罰，天魔恐怖而尋求救助。偉大的神童啊，沒有什麼可以用來稱讚你的！現在正值和煦的春風吹拂，蟄伏的生物開始活動的時節，將要開啟幡蓋，徘徊在僧侶之間，莊嚴肅穆的是什麼呢？這就是所謂的耶時（Yaśas，名聞）的節日，還談論到都督杜公等人，他們都像對待子女一樣養育百姓，像對待家庭一樣憂慮國家，恐怕妖邪之氣在城中作惡，各種物產屢次遭受逆境和災難。因此，在三陽開泰的吉祥月份，向釋尊（Śākyamuni，釋迦牟尼）祈求三種福報，在每個季節的最初時辰，樹立四門（東西南北四門）的利益。總集這些殊勝微妙的最上福田，全部用來莊嚴梵天（Brahmā，大梵天）、釋天（Indra，帝釋天）、四大天王和龍神八部。伏願佛的威光興盛，福力增長，養育百姓，庇護軍國，我們的聖神贊普（Tibetan king，藏王）。只願聖體安康長久，日月流逝，國運昌盛。天長地久，愿節兒都督松皇比壽，福慶互相資助。部落的各位官員等，只願輔佐政事平和，清廉正直。然後四時順利，五穀豐登，各種災禍消除，萬種祥瑞聚集。般若（Prajñā，智慧）神童是諸佛的老師，大眾在城中一起普遍誦唸。
【English Translation】 English version: To sweep away calamities, we need to rely on the power of children. Therefore, we let Śūnyatā (善住, emptiness) hear this to increase longevity, and Ānanda (慶喜, great joy) is able to attain his original mind. Goblins fear and flee from punishment, and celestial demons are terrified and seek help. O great divine child, there is nothing to describe you adequately! Now is the time when the gentle breeze blows and dormant creatures begin to stir. What is it that will open banners and canopies, linger among the monastic community, and be solemn and reverent? This is the so-called festival of Yaśas (耶時, fame), and we also discuss figures like Governor Du. They nurture the people as if they were their own children and worry about the country as if it were their own family, fearing that evil influences will wreak havoc in the city and that various products will repeatedly suffer adversity and disaster. Therefore, in the auspicious month of the Three Yangs, we pray to Śākyamuni (釋尊, the Buddha) for three blessings, and at the beginning of each season, we establish the benefits of the Four Gates (四門, the four cardinal directions). We gather all these extraordinary and subtle supreme fields of merit and use them all to adorn Brahmā (梵天, the creator god), Indra (釋天, the king of gods), the Four Heavenly Kings, and the Eight Classes of Dragons and Gods. We humbly pray that the Buddha's majestic light will flourish, that the power of blessings will increase, that the people will be nurtured, and that the country will be protected. Our holy and divine Tsanpo (贊普, Tibetan king). We only wish that your sacred body will be strong and long-lasting, that the days and months will pass, and that the fortune of the kingdom will be ever prosperous. May the heavens be long and the earth enduring, and may the festival's Governor Song Huang be as long-lived as Mount Meru, with blessings and prosperity mutually supporting each other. May the tribal officials and others assist in governing peacefully, with integrity and uprightness. Then the four seasons will be favorable, the five grains will be abundant, all calamities will be eliminated, and myriad auspicious signs will gather. Prajñā (般若, wisdom) divine child is the teacher of all Buddhas, and the masses in the city together universally recite [this].
