Come to grow without exception
By relying on the earth of a perfect buddha
Who is without thoughts.
Come to grow without exception
By relying on the earth of a perfect buddha
Who is without thoughts.

Du parfait Bouddha, laquelle n’a pas de pensées, Les racines de bien des êtres Croîtront toutes sans exception.
