Composed on the daughter of the dragon king becoming a buddha.

わたつ海の底のもくづと見し物をいかでか空の月と成るらん

wata tu umi no soko no mokudu to misi mono wo ikade ka sora no tuki to naruran

In the broad sea sweep’s Depths among the seaweed Did she appear to be, so How is it that within the skies A moon she might become?
