English translation by Millichip:
I proclaim, all of you hear the edict of the emperor which proclaims: “It is written in the requiem bestowed to the Fujiwara Lord who served during the reign of the emperor, too awesome to mention, who ruled the world from the palace at Omi-no-Otsu, and to the later Fujiwara Lord: ‘I will definitely reward [your] generations of children who serve the court with a pure and clear heart and [your] line will surely not cease.’ So, now I bestow the role of Minister of the Right to Fujiwara-no-Nagate-no-Asomi.”
