She hears the cries of the world
From within each weeping heart
Tears dried by a wondrous vow
The silence ever alert within us
Blood-stained and heavy-laden
We seem too far to be caught
In her thousand motherly arms
Yet her reach covers the cosmos
In her boundless compassion
Appearing in countless guises
She is each and every reflection
Smiling back through our delusion
Revealing the true unborn nature
Of both herself and her children
Merged in the beautiful light
That is Guan Shi Yin Bodhisattva
