御製廣蕩 Royal writing on Spreading Harmony
幾百年後 能及古道 After a few hundred years, we may be able to attain the ways of antiquity
其於本事 猶爲欠典 Regarding this (the present) matter, yet the king's grace bestowed was lacking
昨日以後 其皆帖然 Since yesterday, all matters have come to a peaceful state #1
嗟哉此理 爲子爲弟 Ah! This principle is designed for sons and brothers
嗚呼暮年 吾事畢矣 Alas, in my twilight years, my enterprises have just been concluded
昔一名者 今何餘憾 Those who in the past were sons of concubines, today what grievances can they harbor?
得隴尋蜀 人心皆然 Gaining the Land of Long, one pursues the Land of Shu#2, human nature is just like this
其令此輩 咸知予意 With this order these people will know my intent
甲午年孟夏庚子日 On the 18th Day of the 4th month in the kabo year (1774).

御製廣蕩 Royal Writing on Removing Discrimination in Family Succession
幾百年後 能及古道 How many centuries have been passed before the old way is reached? 昨日以後 其皆帖然 Since yesterday, everything has been straightened out. 其於本事 猶爲欠典 The only thing that worries me is any possible flaw the policy might have. 嗟哉此理 爲子爲弟 Ah! This principle is designed for sons and younger brothers. 嗚呼暮年 吾事畢矣 Oh! In my late years, my enterprises are completed. 昔一名者 今何餘憾 Unlike as in the past, sons of concubines do not need to harbor leftover grievance today. 得隴尋蜀 人心皆然 Endless greed is the human nature. 其令此輩 咸知予意 With the decree, they will all know my intention. 甲午年孟夏庚子日 April 18, 1774
