However young,
the seeker who sets out upon the way
Shines bright over the world.
But day and night
 the person
who is awake
Shines in the radiance of spirit
Meditate
Live purely
Be quiet
Do your work with mastery.
Like the moon
Come out from behind the clouds!
Shine.
From the Dhammapada
Serenity and Joy
Drink deeply.
Live in serenity and joy.
The wise person delights in the truth
And follows the law of the awakened.
The farmer channels
water to his land
the Fletcher whittles his arrows. 
And the carpenter turns his wood.
So the wise direct
their mind.
