Yathā vārivahā pūrā
Paripūrenti sāgaraṁ
Evam-eva ito dinnaṁ
Petānaṁ upakappati.
Just as rivers full of water
fill the ocean full,
even so does that here given
benefit the dead (the hungry ghosts).
Icchitaṁ patthitaṁ tumhaṁ
Khippameva samijjhatu
Sabbe pūrentu saṅkappā,
Cando paṇṇaraso yathā
Maṇi jotiraso yathā.
May whatever you wish or want quickly come to be,
may all your aspirations be fulfilled,
as the moon on the fifteenth (full moon) day,
or as a radiant, bright gem.
Sabbītiyo vivajjantu
Sabba-rogo vinassatu
Mā te bhavatvantarāyo
Sukhī dīgh’āyuko bhava.
May all distresses be averted.
may every disease be destroyed.
May there be no dangers for you.
May you be happy & live long.
Bhavatu sabba-maṅgalaṁ
Rakkhantu sabba-devatā
Sabba-buddhānubhāvena
Sadā sotthī bhavantu te.
Bhavatu sabba-maṅgalaṁ

May there be every good blessing,
may all the devas protect you,
Through the power of all the Buddhas (Dhamma, Saṅgha)
may you always be well.
Abhivādana-sīlissa
Niccaṁ vuḍḍhāpacāyino
Cattāro dhammā vaḍḍhanti
Āyu vaṇṇo sukhaṁ, balaṁ.
For one of respectful nature who
constantly honors the worthy,
Four qualities increase:
long life, beauty, happiness, strength.
Āyurārogya sampatti – sagga sampatti meva ca
Ato nibbāna sampatti – iminā te samijjhatu!
Through these wholesome deeds,
May you achieve the wealth of long life, good health, and a place of happiness,
And eventually may you attain Nibbana, the Supreme Bliss!
