The pilgrims’ hymn for Katsuōji Temple (勝尾寺) in Minō, Osaka Prefecture (here given the alternate pronunciation of “Kachiodera Temple”) from a hymnal for the thirty-three temples of the western pilgrimage circuit dedicated to Kannon Bodhisattva (観音菩薩)
My own rough, tentative translation follows:
Number Twenty-Three: Ōchōzan Kachiodera Temple (Shingon School) in Mishima District, Settsu Province
Aomatani, Minō City, Osaka Prefecture
A hymn for Eleven-Faced Thousand-Armed Kannon:
However weighty Your many sins, count on the Unbeaten methods Of this temple’s buddha to Most surely lighten your load
