English translation by Millichip:
Now I proclaim: “Today is the day when we partake in the drink banquet of Naorai of Niinane. However, when I thought it is presumably good as yesterday was the end of Winter and it rained, the earth is wet, and myriad things are beginning to grow rich and bud, a deer with a white sign was offered up from Iyo province and I saw it happy and pleasing indeed. Also, I thought it very rare for three blessings to gather together at the same time and I fear and revere it and with the statesmen I see its strangely miraculous, graceful and white form and am happy. So with this, I bestow gifts so that you receive and delight in black and white alcohol and receive my gift of alcohol I always bestow.”
