May All Beings Be At Ease

Whatever living beings there may be;
Whether they are weak or strong, omitting none,
The great or the mighty, medium, short or small,
The seen and the unseen,
Those living near or far away,
Those born and to-be-born —
May all beings be at ease.
from the Metta Sutta, the Buddha’s words on Loving Kindness
