I revel in the stores of virtue,

Cause of gaining the enlightened state, And celebrate the freedom won

By living beings from the round of pain.

Dont l’accomplissement est cause d’Éveil. Je me réjouis pour les êtres

Qui se sont définitivement libérés des souffrances du samsâra.

Of embodied beings from the sufferings of cyclic existence.

Which becomes the cause of enlightenment; I also rejoice in beings becoming

Completely free of the suffering of samsara.

I rejoice in the virtue that eases the suffering

Of all sentient beings of the lower realms, And in the accumulation of virtue

That becomes the cause of enlightenment.

I rejoice in those who are certainly liberated

From the suffering of samsara. I also rejoice in the enlightenment of the protectors

And in the sons and daughters of the victorious ones.
