Namo Amitabha!
Namo Amitabha!
The Land of Ultimate Bliss is bathed in Buddha’s light
With scenery so sublime
Beyond compare in this world
Inconceivable to worldly minds
The fragrant waves of the Seven-Jeweled Pools ripple
The Four-Colored Jeweled Lotuses bloom in rivalry
Jeweled towers fill the skies
Rows of jeweled trees stand sevenfold
Divine birds proclaim the Dharma’s sound
The ground adorned with golden hue
Gentle breezes carry melodies
Subtle harmonies blissful and auspicious
Blissful and auspicious
The beauty of the Land of Ultimate Bliss is beyond measure
With faith and vows chant the Buddha’s name to be born in this blissful realm
Resplendent colors pervaded by Buddha’s light
Boundless joy eternal peace and serenity
Life is immeasurable life
Light is immeasurable light
Bodhisattvas are Dharma companions
Offering reverence throughout the ten directions
Together chanting to be reborn in the Pure Land
Returning by vows to steer the boat of compassion
Steer the boat of compassion
Steer the boat of compassion
Namo Amitabha!
Namo Amitabha!
