Lyrics: Dongtai Mituo Temple
Singing: Laishi from Dongtai Mituo Temple
Elysium, my hometown, is covered with gold.
On the smooth floor, there are rows of precious trees and birds singing on the branches.
The lotus in Qibaochi is in full bloom, emitting a strange fragrance.
Amitabha on the bank of Jiuliantai, Guanyin sitting on both sides.
Master, mother, fellow initiates and relatives are willing to walk on the road of chanting Buddha.
Buddha goes to Elysium, and Qibaochi becomes lotus.
Amitabha Guanyin came to welcome the Buddha home,
Fellow initiates and sailors gathered together to pay tribute to the French king in their hearts.

Historical origin
Buddhist music is music developed from Brahma. The saying from the Three Kingdoms and the five major civilizations in India is, in layman's terms, the voice of monks chanting scriptures. It refers to praising the merit of Buddha and Bodhisattva with pure words, which means purity, abstinence, praise and singing. It belongs to the category of "fixed learning" of "three learning", and later it gradually extended to the general name of various singing methods in Buddhist ceremonies.
From the 6th century BC to the 5th century BC, the Buddha Sakyamuni used music when he founded Buddhism in India, and gave lectures on Buddhist scriptures by singing "Jing Jie Ya Jing". After the 3rd century BC, Buddhist music gradually spread to Asia and other parts of the world with Buddhism.
