The Dharma
Body
Is shining brightly
As the day dawns.

In stillness we sit
Our hearts are
At peace
A smile is on our lips.

This is a new day
We vow to go through it in mindfulness
So the Sun of Insight
Can rise
And shine in
Every direction.

Noble sangha, diligently,
Bring our minds into meditation.

The Dharma
body
is bringing
morning light.

In concentration
our hearts are
at peace
a half-smile is born upon our lips.

This is a new day
We vow to go through it in mindfulness.
The sun of wisdom
has now risen,
shining in
every direction.

Noble Sangha, diligently
bring your mind into meditation.

El cuerpo
del Dharma
iradia luz
en la mañana

En concentración
el corazón
está en paz
una ligera sonrisa brota en nuestros labios

Es un nuevo día
nos proponemos vivirlo en plena consciencia
el sol
de la sabiduría
ya se alza
iluminando en toda dirección

Noble sangha con diligencia practiquemos la meditación
