     Beaming all over, Naniwa's little creek, a reed-crab built his hut and dwelleth hidden there and the great lord hath summoned him:
     What hath my lord summon me to do? Evidently, the things that I know — As a singer, hath my lord summoned me? As a piper, hath my lord summoned me? As a strummer, hath my lord summoned me?
     Be that as it may, to receive the dictates, today, today, I reach Asuka «pun on 明日 (asu /⁠あす⁠/, “tomorrow”)» and stay put there, but I reach Okuna «pun on 置くな (okuna /⁠おくな⁠/, “don't put”)» and arrive not there, but I reach Tsukuno «pun on 着く (tsuku /⁠つく⁠/, “to arrive”)», and through the central gate of the east side I pay a visit and receive the dictates:
     Horses ought to be tighten with rein; to oxen ropes are put in their noses; foot-dragging slope of this mountain's hundred elms, stripping their five hundred branches to hang, when the heaven shineth, they'll dry me in th'exceptional sun; when I chirrp, they'll pound me in a foot-pedalled mortal and pound me by hand in a mortal standeth in the yard; beaming all over, Naniwa's little creek's first drips, they'll come drip me those saltily; a jar which is made by a potter, they'll go today and bring it back tomorrow; they'll bestow pair of my eyes salt to smear and praise dried meat of mine, praise dried meat of mine!
