2 Those sentient beings who do good things at midday by way of body, speech, and mind have a good midday.

3 Those sentient beings who do good things in the evening by way of body, speech, and mind have a good evening.

4 A good star, a good fortune,

a good sunup, a good rising,

a good moment, a good hour,

good gifts to spiritual practitioners.

5 Auspicious deeds of body,

verbal auspicious deeds,

auspicious deeds of mind,

auspicious resolutions:

when your deeds have been auspicious,

you get auspicious benefits.

6 Those happy with these benefits

flourish in the Buddha’s teaching.

May you and all your relatives

be healthy and happy!”
