轉經行道願往生淨土法事讚 2.81

2.81

We vow to be reborn! We vow to be reborn! / The Buddhas of the southern direction are like the sands of the Ganges, / who also extend their tongue-marks covering the three thousand worlds; / for the ordinary mortals and holy beings of their own lands, / they praise Śākyamuni's transformation body. / Appearing within the five defilements of the Sahā world, / he sets his mind on transforming people with sinful roots; / seeing their self-conceit, false greed, and arrogance, / he teaches them to transcend the world, yet they give rise to anger. / Mindful of you sentient beings wandering adrift for so long, / you consider the truthful words of the Buddhas to be untrue. / May the entire assembly turn their hearts to be born in the Pure Land; / holding fragrant flowers in hand, let us make constant offerings.
