How wondrous!


སངས་རྒྱས་ཀུན་འདུས་པདྨ་ཐོད་ཕྲེང་རྩལ༔

May Padmasambhava, the Mighty Lotus with the Skull Garland, embodiment of all Buddhas,


བདག་སོགས་རྗེས་བཟུང་ཚེ་རབས་ཐམས་ཅད་དུ༔

daksok jeyzung ts’érap t’amchay du

By compassionately guiding myself and others in all lifetimes,


འགལ་རྐྱེན་ཀུན་ཞི་བསམ་དོན་མྱུར་འགྲུབ་ནས༔

gelkyen kün shyi samdön nyur drup nay

Pacify all adverse circumstances and swiftly accomplish our desired aims;


མཐར་ཐུག་པདྨ་འོད་དུ་སྐྱེ་བར་ཤོག༔

t’art’uk payma ö du kyéwar shok

And, ultimately, may we be born in the Palace of Lotus Light.


རཏྣ་གླིང་པས་སོ༔
