妻のをとこをおしむが如くをとこの妻に命をすつるが如く - a woman cherishes her husband, as a man lays down his life for his wife,




本文
 
信心と申すは別にはこれなく候、妻のをとこをおしむが如くをとこの妻に命をすつるが如く、親の子をすてざるが如く・子の母にはなれざるが如くに、法華経釈迦多宝・十方の諸仏菩薩・諸天善神等に信を入れ奉りて南無 妙法蓮華経と唱へたてまつるを信心とは申し候なり

通解(意訳)
 
信心というのは、特別にこれというものではない。妻が夫を想い慕うように、また夫が妻の為なら命をすてるように、親が子を捨てないように、子供が母親から離れないように、信心というのは、本能的な慈愛の行動と同じ事なので
ある。法華経・釈迦仏・多宝仏・十方の諸仏・菩薩・諸天善神が住まわれている、あなたの身心に備わっている仏界を書き顕した御本尊を信じきって、自他共の幸福を願う慈愛の心で、南無妙法蓮華経の題目を唱え奉ることを、信心というのである。

" The Meaning of Faith "

 
What is called faith is nothing unusual. Faith means putting one’s trust in the Lotus Sutra, Shakyamuni, Many Treasures, the Buddhas and bodhisattvas of the ten directions, and the heavenly gods and benevolent deities, and chanting Nam-myoho-renge-kyo as a woman cherishes her husband, as a man lays down his life for his wife, as parents refuse to abandon their children, or as a child refuses to leave its mother. 
[ the Faith is the same thing as behavior of instinctive affection like these. It's Gohozon that Buddha nature which exists in the inside of your mind and body was expressed. It's important to believe strong to the Gohonzon,  and pray the myself and others' prosperity with your "heart of affection" . ]

人のために火をともせば・我がまへあきらかなるがごとし - if one lights a fire for others, one will brighten one’s own way.

湿れる木より火を出し乾ける土より水を儲けんが如く強盛に申すなり - praying as earnestly as though to produce fire from damp wood, or to obtain water from parched ground.

蒼蝿驥尾に附して万里を渡り 碧蘿松頭に懸りて千尋を延ぶ - A blue fly, if it clings to the tail of a thoroughbred horse, can travel ten thousand miles, and the green ivy that twines around the tall pine can grow to a thousand feet.
