法苑珠林 65.34

65.34

普親皆眷屬　隔世即相欺
但求現在樂　不知來苦資
牽我入三塗　楚痛受萬危
自非慈放捨　何得命延時

Those universally dear are all our kin, / Yet across different lifetimes they deceive one another.
They seek only pleasures in the present, / Unaware of providing for future suffering.
They drag me into the three evil destinies, / To undergo a myriad perils of acute torment.
Unless they are set free through compassionate renunciation, / How could they obtain a prolongation of life?
