Lyrics:
In the misty secular world,
Dreams and illusions are as transitory as clouds and fog.
Grace, hatred, sentiment and vengeance are nothing but tribulations.
Where does one find a pure land in the human realm?

When ghostly clouds are covering the sun,
The radiance of the enlightened beings is revealed.
In ordinary places loftiness and purity are found.
They repel the misty fog and form benevolent relationships.

The spring breeze becomes sweet elixir
That nourishes our heart.
It is enormously good fortune to encounter "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance" in this life
And, thus, to be able to carry pure land everywhere you go.

Chinese Lyrics in Pinyin:
Mang mang chen shi jian
Meng huan ru yun yan
En yuan qing chou dou shi ku
Ren jian jing tu he chu xun

Wu yun zhe ri shi
Hui zhe guang ming xian
Ping fan zhi chu jian gao jie
Bo kai mi wu jie shan yuan

Chun feng hua gan lu
Dian dian run xin tian
Jin sheng xin yu Zhen Shan Ren
Yi fang jing tu zai shen bian

Note:
"Zhen Shan Ren" are the transliterations of Chinese characters, Truthfulness Compassion Forbearance.
