Namo Amitabha!
Namo Amitabha!
Dreams are locked within the heart
The path of rebirth is perilous and vast
Where does the sixfold realm lead
Karmic tides toss through countless ages overturned
Life's thousandfold sufferings
Each pain tightly bound
Past lives and present
Causes arise and fade
Ignorance breeds enmity and grievance
Now I see the truth—
The three realms are but a prison no refuge at all
Fame and wealth like dust
Bleached bones in barren hills lament high and low
Today awakened I repent my sins
Taking refuge in the Three Jewels chanting the Buddha's name with a sincere heart
Namo Amitabha!
Namo Amitabha!
Chanting sincerely
We board Amitabha’s vow-bound ship
Attaining liberation in this very life
To the Pure Land we go
Where blossoms bloom and the Buddha appears
Namo Amitabha!
Namo Amitabha!
Practice without slackening
Chanting daily
Relying on Amitabha’s salvation
To the Pure Land becoming bodhisattvas
Perfecting all merits
Namo Amitabha!
Namo Amitabha!
