May the naked find clothing,
May the hungry find food,
And may the thirsty find pure water
And delicious drinks.

May the poor find wealth,
May those weak with sorrow find joy,
And may those whose fortunes have declined
Find replenishment and long-lasting good fortune.

May everyone who is sick
Be swiftly healed,
And may every disease that affects living beings
Be permanently eradicated.

May the frightened be released from their fears,
May those in captivity be freed,
May the powerless be endowed with power,
And may people think only of benefiting one another.
May it be so.
