Kara?īya Mettā Sutta
The Discourse on Loving-kindness

translation from: http://laurenexar.blogspot.com/2010/03/karaniya-metta-sutta.html
若欲獲得寂滅樂，當應深具諸善行，
若欲獲得寂滅樂，當應深具諸善行，
勤奮端莊與謙虛，真誠正直語柔軟，
待人和藹不驕慢，知足儉樸少塵俗，
博學易教諸根淨，遇緣謹慎心不貪。

再細微過都戒慎，不使智者有所訶，
應常升起慈悲念，為眾祈福求平安，
普願一切諸大眾，永得喜樂與安祥。
不論氣力強與弱，身材好看不好看，
形體可見不可見，居住近鄰或遠方，
已生或將受生者，有緣無緣皆包含。

任何時間與空間，你我不欺亦不瞞，
沒有鄙視與怨懟，不忍他人有苦酸。
就像父母盡形壽，茹苦舍身護獨子，
祈願眾生如慈母，視眾皆如己小孩，
慈愛遍及諸法界，散播無限慈愛心，
無有敵對與恨意，十方遠近皆無礙。

無論行住或坐臥，隻要心中有警覺，
皆應滋養此正念，讓此正念滿胸懷。
具足戒德與智慧，不受邪見所毒害，
滅除感官之貪戀，必定不再生於胎。
