The Buddha, our Lord, brings comfort to the weary and
sorrow-laden;

he restores peace to those who are broken down under the
burden of life. He gives courage to the weak when they would fain give
up self-reliance and hope. You who suffer from the tribulations of
life, you who have to struggle and endure, you who yearn for a life of
truth, rejoice at the glad tidings!

 

There is balm for the wounded, and
there is bread for the hungry. There is water for the thirsty, and
there is hope for the despairing. There is light for those in
darkness, and there is inexhaustible blessing for the upright.
  Heal your wounds, you wounded, and eat your fill, you hungry.

Rest, you weary, and you who are thirsty quench your thirst. Look up
to the light, you who sit in darkness; be full of good cheer, you
who are forlorn.
  Trust in truth, You who love the truth, for the kingdom of
righteousness is founded upon earth.
