¶Lyrics / Text

The evil which I have heaped up Through my ignorance and foolishness - evil in the world of everyday experience, As well as evil in understanding and intelligence - All that I acknowledge to the Protectors. Standing before them With hands raised in reverence, And terrified of suffering, I pay salutations again and again. May the Leaders receive this kindly, Just as it is, with its many faults! What is not good, O Protectors, I shall not do again.
