lyrics

Ornament of the World

In the snowy land of Tibet there dwells a lion,
A snow lion found in no other region.
The Supreme One is the peaceful snow lion.
Love and mercy are his turquoise mane.
Truthful speech is the lion's roar.
Enlightened deed are the lion's might.
This peaceful snow lion is an ornament of the world.
May this ornament gain victory over the world!

In the snowy land of Tibet there is an army,
An army that is found in no other region.
The saffron-clad monk-hood is the peaceful army.
Monastic robes are their peaceful ornament.
Scriptures in hand are their benevolent weapons of joy.
The religion of nonviolence is their military strategy.
This army of peace and joy is an ornament of the world.
May this ornament gain victory over the world!

Chabdrak Phonya
