济世悬壶 一生的抱负
To save the world does one's life motivate
放下身段 真诚众生服务
To serve humanity, selfless and true
脚踏地 实意做 济公的贤徒
Be Teacher's disciple, truly cultivate
法雨甘露 永驻心灵的深处
Forever in one's heart—dharma rain, sweet dew
归乡途 莫踌躇 志坚笃 全力赴
Resolve to go back to Heaven's way—don't delay
荆棘刺 依旧不认输
When facing hardships, don't dismay
黑暗过 日即出 心境迁 更投入
As darkness turns to light, prepare to face the day
徒继师志收圆普渡
Follow Teacher to save the world
跋山涉水路 永保发心的最初
Stay devoted—ahead lies a long difficult road
菩萨的心慈悲护 喜舍布
Bodhisattva—merciful charity
圣贤之志 超凡脱俗 良心来做主
Sage by conscience rules; His will is extraordinary
济公之徒 大公无私纳福
Disciples live with blessings—unselfishly
师护着徒 同心协力 众生广渡
Teacher protects us and helps save humanity
济公牵着徒 一步又一步
Leading disciples step by step, Ji Gong
扫阴霾 迎阳光 踏上回家的路
Clear the haze; See the sunlight; Take the road back home
灵隐禅师 慈悲 Holy Teacher's merciful words:
观乎 天地无私 覆载万物 故能成其大
Observe: Heaven and Earth are selfless, covering all things—Thus, they are great
减一分私心 即增一分公心
Reducing one's selfishness increases one's selflessness
减一分我欲 即存一分天理
Reducing one's desires gives one Heaven's Truth
愈为私者 愈不能成其私
The greater the pursuits for oneself, the less able to achieve one's goals
故唯有以大公无私 光明正直之心
So only with a heart that is impartial and selfless, bright and upright,
可以制天下为我之私心私欲
can one prevent selfishness and selfish desires
圣曰 人人为我 我为人人
A sage says: All for one and one for all
诚以天下之至公 方能成就天下之至理
Only for the good of all can we achieve the ideal
去己以为天下 方能彰显其大我之胸襟
By ridding the self for the sake of all can we manifest the collective broad heart
若从私上出发 则限于小我矣
If everything comes from the self then what we achieve is only for the self
