水流不常滿　火盛不久然
日出須臾沒　月滿已復缺
尊榮豪貴者　無常復過是
念當勤精進　頂禮無上尊

Flowing water is not constantly full;
A blazing fire does not burn for long.
The sun rises and sets in an instant;
The moon, once full, wanes again.
For the exalted, glorious, and noble,
Impermanence is greater still.
One should mindfully strive with diligence,
And bow the head to the Unsurpassed Honoured One.
