English translation by Millichip:
I proclaim the edict that is said to the Fujiwara Minister of the Left.I proclaim the edict which says: “When I was waiting, thinking, tomorrow my Great Lord will leave his house and come and serve, you did not come as you were resting and I heard that you had passed away, abandoning the imperial court. When I heard this I thought, ‘What trickery and lies!’ If this is true, to whom did he entrust, to whom did he bestow the tasks of the Chancellor the Realm that he was fulfilling? What a shame! How sad! O Great Lord, I cry divine tears thinking it regrettable, wasteful, painful and sad—To whom shall I talk? To whom shall I ask?”I proclaim the edict that says: “I am lamenting and in grief: How regrettable! What a waste! Am I to no longer hear the governance that my Great Lord spoke from today? Am I to no longer see the humble service of my Great Lord from tomorrow? As the days and months pass, only my sadness will be more and more! As the years go by, only my loneliness will increase evermore! O Great Lord, with whom shall I see, pick and take pleasure in the beautiful colours of the spring and autumn? With whom shall I see the mountains and rivers and clear my mind?”I proclaim the edict that says: “In all of your myriad governances, you were never lacking or remit, you never went wrong or strayed, you spoke far-reaching and peacefully of the Lords and statesmen not picking at this or that and, widely and warmly you made the people beautiful told me of them! Not only this, you did not leave the imperial court for even a short while to rest, and you served morning and evening, day and night, thinking about, discussing and speaking to me about how to make the governance of my realm tranquil, how to make the people of the realm peaceful. While I was thinking all of this diligent, clear, calm and reliable, you suddenly became far from my court, you passed away and I am full of regret and bewildered, with nothing to say and not knowing what to do.”I proclaim the edict that further says: “With your service being broad and warm, I will not split up and lose the children of your house, I shall make them beautiful, stir them up, enquire after them and show concern for them. Great Lord, you should pass away and move on calmly and full of fortune, thinking your pilgrimage to the underworld and that which you leave behind unburdened and you should have a peaceful heart.”
