A PRAISE TO GREEN TARA
Here is the Green Tara,
Towering above the trees,
Looking upon us here on Earth,
To see how we are doing.
Her beautiful eyes are open,
The eyes in her head are three,
And one of them in her forehead.
Her hands sweep from side to side
In a graceful rhythm...
The eye in each hand, looking over;
Over the actions and beauty
Of the world and the peoples in it.
Her strong, graceful feet walk on,
Each having an eye in it to see,
Each sensing and knowing all things.
Green Tara, beautiful green, lovely one,
Queen of Nature.
Green Tara, protect us and show us
The way toward the Light,
To feel our Light Within, O Mother.
Green as the trees are,
Green as the grasses
Green as some of the animals
Sparkling, clean green as in waters.
Listen to us, O Mother,
As we praise you.
Enlighten us. We look at you in awe,
Marveling at your grace
And the depth of your compassion.
Protect our Earth, Help us
To protect the resources here.
Protect us all from evil beings.
Help us be kind and caring
And protect the innocents,
As you do, Gracious Mother.
Help us with our healings,
Adding your energies.
Grant us your happy laughter,
Let us rejoice at what we have
And make better what we can,
Appreciating the Earth's bounty.
We feel joy at your approach.
Bless us, Green Mother.
