Life and Buddhism

We mustn't seek that which was yesterday
Nor wonder what tomorrow will give
But rather to see this day clearly
And find in it reasons to live

We mustn't let problems confine us
Nor doubts and illusions sink in
But rather to seek out the wisdom
With faith as our strength we will win

The road to our lives is a tough one
With obstacles all of the way
But in using the Law as our beacon
We can stand and challenge each day

So be patient and trust the Gohonzon
and try always to keep it in sight
For it's only with strong daimoku
That darkness will change to light
