Lyrics
Kannon 1
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Vowing to never rest
Despite strenuous effort
Her head split into 11 pieces
Her two arms shattered into pieces
Amitabha came to her aid
And appointed her thousand arms
An immortal
Shown in a white flowing robe
A water jar and willow branch
IIn her hands
The daughter of the cruel king
The tree misfortunes to come
She allowed herself to die
At the hand of an executioner
But his axe shattered into a thousand of pieces
The sword shattered too
The arrows all weared off
It is because of this
Yanluo the king of hell sent her back to
Prevent the utter destruction of his realm
Standing atop of a dragon
Sending pearl of light
