From time without beginning
All my ancient parents
Have shown me great kindness
In lifetime after lifetime
In confusion and sorrow
We wander now in darkness
Birth, old age, sickness and death
Like a shadow close behind
When I think of how you loved me
And you cared for me so kindly
Fed and clothed me and kept me from all harm
Oh, I want to take you with me
Across Samsara’s waters
Like a child running to its mother’s arms
Love and compassion
Lightning flashing
Oh, sufferers do cry
Let every living, breathing being
Find happiness
Let wisdom mind
Bodhicitta mind
Arise
Oh fearless great bliss
Primordial radiant wisdom
Help us to overcome
Samsara’s rushing tide
Lotus born in muddy waters
Open wide the gates of Eden
Free from hatred, jealousy and pride
Love and compassion
Lightning flashing
Rainbows fill the sky
Let every living, breathing being
Find happiness
Let wisdom mind
Bodhicitta mind
Arise
