Life Is Already a Crime

Life is already a crime,
Embodied we are doing time,
And should not the lesson be learned,
To jail we'll be swiftly returned.

And next time it could be much worse,
To linger as a wolf or a horse,
Or even as a being of hell,
In unspeakable suffering dwell.

This is the perfect chance,
To break off Samsara at once,
Enlighten in Amida's Pure Land,
To help beings all without end!
