།གདུང་སེལ་གྱིས་རེ་སྨོན། A Prayer to Dispel Suffering

This is a Yushu Earthquake memorial song, written by Tashi Palden and composed and performed by Amalia. I encourage anyone viewing this video to find out how they can support ongoing quake relief for the people of Jyekundo, Yushu, Tibet. My friends in Tibet recommend the Tibetan Village Project www.tibetanvillageproject.org/ as a good and reliable organization that is getting aid to those who need it, but there are plenty of good organizations!

Thousands of people died in this quake and more than 90% of homes were destroyed. Your help is needed.

*note!* Two spelling errors were made during the editting process. We hope to get them fixed, but it could take a while. Correct spelling is below. The fault lies entirely with us on the editing side! The writer's spelling is impeccable!

།གདུང་སེལ་གྱིས་རེ་སྨོན།
A prayer to dispel suffering

... ཁམས་སྐྱེ་རྒུ་མདོ་ལ་ས་འགུལ་གྱིས།
The earthquake in Kham Jyekundo
མི་རྒྱ་སྟོང་མང་པོའི་ལུས་སེམས་ཕྲལ།
Thousands of peoples minds and bodies separated.
ཚེ་ཕྱི་མར་སོང་བའི་ཚེ་འདས་རྣམས།
May these people who have died and gone on to the next life
ལམ་ཐར་པའི་ལམ་སྣེ་ཟིན་པ་ཤོག
Find the beginning of the path to liberation.

ནོར་བསགས་པ་ཁྱིམ་གཞིས་ས་གཡོས་གཏོར།
All of their possessions and homes destroyed by this earthquake,
ལུས་གཅེས་པའི་ཤ་རུས་རྡོ་ཡིས་གཏུབས།
Even their bodies broken and torn apart by the stones and cement.
སེམས་དངངས་སྐྲག་ངང་དུ་བརྒྱལ་བའི་ཚེ།
Overcome with fear they slipped into unconsciousness.
ལྷ་བླ་མ་རྣམས་ཀྱིས་ཐུགས་རྗེས་གཟིགས།
All Gods and Lamas, please help them.

ཕྱི་འབྱུང་བ་འཁྲུགས་པའི་ས་ཡོམ་འོག
This earthquake, caused by unbalanced outer elements,
ནང་སེམས་ཅན་མང་པོ་ཤི་གསོན་ཕྱེས།
Killed many sentient beings, separating them from those who survived.
ཡིད་སྐྱོ་བའི་ཤུལ་ལུས་ཉམ་ཆུང་རྣམས།
The survivors are filled with sadness and weakness.
སེམས་གདུང་བའི་མྱ་ངན་ཞི་བར་ཤོག
May the sufferings of the living be dispelled.

ལུས་རྐང་ལག་ས་འགུལ་འོག་ཏུ་ཤོར།
Arms and legs destroyed by this earthquake,
ཁྱིམ་བཟའ་ཚང་མ་དབང་ད་ཕྲུག་ལུས།
Many have become orphans who lost their families.
ཡིད་གཏད་སོ་བྲལ་བའི་ཉམ་ཐག་ཚོར།
For those who are hopeless and weak,
ལྷོ་འཛམ་གླིང་མི་ཡི་ཐུགས་རྗེས་གཟིགས།
Please, people of the world help them.
