The full version of "That Day, That Month, That Year" by Tsangyang Gyatso

That day

I closed my eyes in the fragrant mist of the Sutra Hall

Suddenly I heard the mantra of your chanting

>

That month

I turned all the prayer wheels

Not for salvation

Just to touch your fingertips

That year

I kowtowed and prostrated on the mountain road

Not to meet you

Just to be close to your warmth

That In this life

I go around mountains and rivers and pagodas

Not to cultivate the next life

Just to meet you on the way

The white crane in the sky

Please lend me your wings

I will not fly far away

I will only come back to Litang

It’s just that that night, I forgot everything,

I gave up my faith and reincarnation,

Just for that The rose crying in front of the Buddha,

has long lost its luster
