Returning to the light

I walked so long through countless worlds of craving,
Seeking a peace beyond the dust of life.
Illusions rose like storms of restless shadows,
And lost was I in dreams of wandering mind.
Until one dawn, the Dharma softly called me,
A gentle light awakening my heart.


I found the truth within my simple breathing,
A quiet smile born from letting go.
The chains of grief that once held tight my footsteps
Fell silently like morning mist away.
Within this world, I saw the path of wisdom—
A way to live unshaken and serene.


Now I understand the golden Dharma shining,
And see impermanence in every breath.
I leave behind the days of dust and burden,
To walk again beneath the Buddha’s light.
The truth within—an endless flame of clarity,
Shall guide me through the storms of earthly life.



I kneel in peace amid the world’s confusion,
Keeping my mind from clinging to desire.
I vow to walk the path the Buddha showed us,
Though winds may rise, my heart shall not retreat.
The years of sorrow now fade like distant echoes—
I’m coming home, like rivers to the sea.
