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? |
