The poem may be translated as:
The Bandit Fa Jinlong roused his power,
Moving mountains and shaking hills, trees flew high.
After converting to Buddhism and accepting the magic power of the three jewels,
He never dared part from his sutras and alms bowl.
In autumn in xinwei year, in the style of Yingpiao, (by) Taomi sanren, Wangqi, of Xichang, being a guest at Zhushan.
