In the tranquil light of dawn, we awaken,
With hearts unburdened, minds unshaken,
In this world, where greed often prevails,
We choose the path where compassion never fails.

Happy indeed we live, free from avarice amidst the avaricious,
In the realm of desire, we remain unambitious.
Amidst the avaricious men, pure is our dwell,
In the light of Dhamma, we weave our spell.

We breathe in peace, we breathe out strife,
In every moment, in every life.
May our hearts be filled with loving-kindness,
And our minds be free from all blindness.

In the wheel of Samsara, where attachments bind,
May we find liberation, may we unwind.
As the lotus thrives amidst the murky pond,
May we grow in wisdom, forming a bond.

With gratitude, we greet this day,
In our actions, in what we say.
May our journey be gentle, our spirits bright,
Guided by Buddha's eternal light.

Mantra for the day:
"Free from avarice, in peace we dwell,
In the light of Dhamma, all is well."
