བྱིས་པས་དེ་སྔོན་མཐོང་མ་མྱོང་། །
བཙས་པའི་ཁྱིམ་ནས་བུ་ཆུང་གིས། །
ཉི་མའི་གཟུགས་བཞིན་འཕགས་པས་ཀྱང་། །
Just as those born blind [have never seen] form.
Even noble ones [see it only] as an infant [would glimpse]
The orb of the sun while lying in the house of a new mother.
- De même que les aveugles de naissance ne voient pas les formes,
- Les êtres puérils ne l’ont jamais vue. Les êtres sublimes eux-mêmes
- Sont pareils à des nourrissons qui entrevoient la forme du soleil
- Depuis la chambre où ils viennent de naître.

- Like the visible forms for those who are born blind, nor even by the Saints,
