悟

无量心 生福报 无极限
无极限 生息息 爱相连
为何君视而不见 规矩定方圆
悟性 悟觉 悟空 心甘情愿

放下 颠倒梦想 放下云烟
放下 空欲色 放下悬念
多一物 却添了 太多危险
少一物 贪嗔痴 会少一点

若是缘 再苦味也是甜
若无缘 藏爱 在心田
尘世 藕断还丝连 回首一瞬间
种颗善因 陪你走好每一天

唯有 心无挂碍 成就大愿
唯有 心无故 妙不可言
算天算地 算尽了 从前
算不出 生死 会在哪一天

勿生恨 点化虚空的眼
勿生怨 欢喜 不遥远
缠绕 欲望的思念 善恶一瞬间
心怀忏悔 陪你走好每一天

再牢的谎言 却逃不过天眼
明日之前 心流离更远
浮云霎那间 障眼 人心渐离间
集苦连连 不断的出现

无量心 生福报 无极限
无极限 生息息 爱相连
凡人却视而不见 规矩定方圆
悟性 悟觉 悟空 心甘情愿
简简单单 陪你走好每一天

Enlightenment

An unconditional heart brings great blessings with no boundary
Without boundaries, our fragile lives are all connected through love
Why do you turn a blind eye and let yourselves be restricted by the status quo? 1
Willingly, I finally come to my senses to realize my character and my emptiness

Let go of your inverted dreams, let go of the things which will one day fade away
Let go of your leisure, desire, pleasure, and let go of suspense
With one more thing in hand, more danger will follow
With less things, greed will lessen as well

If this is fate, no matter how bitter life can be you are always contented 2
Yet if it isn’t, just bury this love in your heart
In this live of ours, everything’s interconnected, and it takes only a split second to look back 3
Let me plant a seed of good will and walk down this road of life together with you

Only someone whose heart is not bounded can accomplish great things
Only someone whose heart does not have a story is indigenous above all 4
I’ve considered heaven and earth, and I’ve considered everything from my past 5
Yet I still cannot make out the days of life and death

Do not hate your eyes which deceive you
Do not resent, for happiness is not far away
As thoughts are built around your desires, it only takes a split second to decide between good and evil
With a heart of repentance, let me walk down this road of life together with you

No matter how firm your lies may be, they cannot escape the eyes of God
Before dawn, your heart is being dragged further away
As the clouds are able to blind our eyes in an instant, so do human hearts change
Bitterness have been accumulated since long before, and is bound to keep coming

An unconditional heart brings great blessings with no boundary
Without boundaries, our fragile lives are all connected through love
Yet human beings turn a blind eye and let themselves be restricted by the status quo
Willingly, I finally come to my senses to realize my character and my emptiness
In pure simplicity, let me walk down this road of life together with you

1.规矩定方圆: literal meaning, the law/rule/custom decides what is square and what is round
2.something like the saying, when life gives you lemons make lemonade out of it
3.藕断丝连: literal meaning, when the lotus root breaks there are still a lot of silk threads connecting the two broken pieces. When you want to get rid of something, in this case it’s your past, it’s not that easy because there are evidences of your life before, just like those “silk threads”
4.because, everyone has a story of their own, it’s very rare for someone to not have a story
5.算: literal meaning, count
