行法弟子某某人，太上老君名下的。
I am
disciple (name), under Tai Shiong Lao Jun.
今日奉旨來到此，玉皇差我開財門。
Today I am
ordered to come here, the Jade Emperor asked me to open the door of fortune.
上開玉皇鎖的財，下開地府關的財。(burn fu 1, fu 2)
Above, I
open the fortune locked by the Jade Emperor; Below, I open the door locked by
the underworld.
陰陽二門齊打開，有請五路財神到。
I open both
Ying-Yang doors, inviting the gods of fortune from 5 directions.
善財招財童子來，進寶童郎來坐鎮。
The
children of fortunes please come, the youth of fortune please be seated.
一開東方甲乙木，二開南方丙丁火。(burn fu 3, fu 4)
First I
open the Eastern door of woods, second I open the door of fire;
三開西方庚辛金，四開北方壬癸水。(burn fu 5, fu 6)
Third I
open the Western door of metal; fourth I open the door of water.
五開中央戊己土 (burn fu 7)，若不開九牛造開。
Fifth, I
open the center door of earth, if the doors failed to open; I summon the 9 oxen
to open.
若不開五雷打開，若不開金刀利剪斬開。
If the
doors still not opening, the 5 thunders break the door. Yet still not opening;
the golden sword and sharp scissors break the doors.
吾奉太上老君急急如律令。
I carry out
the order of Tai Shiong Lou Kun.
Finally,
don’t forget to give thanks to all the gods and goddesses and make a wish that
you will use the fortune to do good things.
