3.42

第一能排除睡障　意令諸子離重昏
障滅身心亦清淨　更見西方百寶門
第二動振天魔界　令遣心歸念佛門
但使魔宮聞一念　因慈永劫奉慈尊
第三聲遍十方界　為令惡取苦皆停
一一能聞無量壽　咸登淨國住經行
第四三途幽苦息　須臾變作寶蓮成
罪人盡處花間坐　登時聞法悟無生
第五無令外聲入　心心直往法王家
光明長照琉璃殿　化生同子散金花
第六妄念心無散　彌陀淨剎想中成
寶樹林間宣妙法　聲聲唯讚大乘經
第七勇猛勤精進　無明塵埃自消除
念念常觀極樂國　彌陀慈主贈明珠
第八諸佛皆歡喜　當來護念信心人
一一咸令不退轉　臨終證得紫金身
第九能入深三昧　寂滅無為漏禪
念時無念見諸佛　永超生死離人天
第十由具諸功德　恒沙福智果圓明
臨終淨國蓮花坐　彌陀聖眾自親迎

First, it can dispel the hindrance of sleep, / intending to cause everyone to leave behind deep drowsiness. / The hindrance eliminated, body and mind are also pure, / and one further sees the hundred-jewelled gate of the West. / Second, it shakes and trembles the realms of heavenly Māras, / causing their minds to return to the gate of reciting the Buddha's name. / If only Māra's palaces hear a single thought-moment, / due to compassion they will serve the Compassionate Honoured One for eternal kalpas. / Third, the voice pervades the realms of the ten directions, / causing the suffering of the evil destinies all to cease. / Each and every one can hear Amitāyus, / and all ascend to the pure land to dwell in walking meditation. / Fourth, the dark sufferings of the three wretched paths cease, / and in an instant they transform into precious lotuses. / Transgressors all sit amidst the flowers, / and immediately hearing the Dharma, awaken to the unborn. / Fifth, it allows no external sounds to enter; / thought after thought goes straight to the house of the Dharma King. / The bright light constantly shines on the lapis lazuli palace; / transformationally born children scatter golden flowers. / Sixth, false thoughts are not scattered in the mind; / Amitābha's pure land is accomplished within one's contemplation. / Amidst the jewel tree groves, the wondrous Dharma is proclaimed; / sound after sound praises only the Mahāyāna sūtras. / Seventh, vigorously and diligently energetic, / the dust of ignorance naturally disperses. / In thought after thought constantly contemplating the Land of Sukhāvatī, / Amitābha, the Compassionate Lord, bestows a bright pearl. / Eighth, all Buddhas rejoice, / and in the future protect and remember the faithful person. / Each and every one is made non-retrograde, / and at the end of life realizes a purple-golden body. / Ninth, one can enter deep samādhi, / quiescent, unconditioned, and free of outflows. / When reciting, without recitation one sees the Buddhas, / eternally transcending birth and death, departing humans and gods. / Tenth, because it is endowed with all virtues, / the fruit of fortune and wisdom as numerous as the sands of the Ganges is completely fulfilled and luminous. / At the end of life, one sits on a lotus flower in the pure land, / and Amitābha and the holy assembly personally welcome [them].
