The pilgrims’ hymn for Hōgonji Temple (宝厳寺) on Chikubushima Island in Nagahama, Shiga Prefecture, from a hymnal for the thirty-three temples of the western pilgrimage circuit dedicated to Kannon Bodhisattva (観音菩薩)
My own rough, tentative translation follows:

Chikubushima Island, Hayazaki Neighborhood, Biwa Village, East Asai County, Shiga Prefecture
A hymn for Thousand-Armed Thousand-Eyed Kannon:
The moon and the sun Afloat within the waves of Chikubushima Bear a fair resemblance to Treasures loaded on a ship
