往生禮讚偈 1.331

1.331

下輩下行下根人，十惡五逆等貪瞋，
四重偷僧謗正法，未曾慚愧悔前愆。
終時苦相如雲集，地獄猛火罪人前，
忽遇往生善知識，急勸專稱彼佛名。
化佛菩薩尋聲到，一念傾心入寶蓮，
三華障重開多劫，于時始發菩提因。

People of the lower grade, lower practice, and lower capacity
Commit the ten unwholesome actions, five heinous crimes, and equal greed and anger,
The four grave offenses, stealing from the Saṅgha, and slandering the true Dharma,
Never feeling shame or repenting past transgressions.
At the end of life, marks of suffering gather like clouds;
The fierce fires of hell appear before the sinner.
Suddenly meeting a spiritual friend of rebirth,
They are urgently urged to exclusively recite that Buddha's name.
Transformation Buddhas and Bodhisattvas arrive following the sound;
With a single thought inclined in faith, they enter the jewel lotus.
For three flowers, obstacles are heavy, opening only after many kalpas;
Only at that time do they first generate the cause of bodhi.
