Descending cut is for thrust[1]
Rising cut breaks simply[2]
Lateral cut in the wide[3]
Now ponder what this means

In the switch cut, seek the gauche[4]
Look for a displacement
Therein you wind the plunge cut[5]
If you wish to find the face uncovered

Then from the part cut[6]
Strike the short edge down
Invert the plunge cut when down below
Therein seek and learn.

In the iron point, take watch[7]
Rise up with your point
End up in the unicorn once more[8]

Your roses in a little wheel[9]
Suddenly withdraw engagements to give good opportunities

Shield cut clashes together[10]
Wing accosts the ears[11]

Waker will stay[12]
Conducting strokes will go[13]

Approaching first, [then] pursuing is the snare
Bouncing, overrunning and the slice

That is a general teaching
Orient yourself thereupon

This proclaims the knowledge
That this art is able to to extol.
