On This Day of Light

.

On this thirteenth day of May,
Soft as if the veils divide,
Through the noise of passing years,
Something pure again appears.
Not by chance and not by name,
Not for fortune, not for gain,
But a path so clear and true
Quietly returns to view.

.
In a world of restless streams,
Lost in countless shifting dreams,
A deeper law, serene and bright,
Guides the heart toward what is right.
Through the trials, through the pain,
Through what seems like loss or gain,
There remains a steady way —
Unchanged by night, unchanged by day.

.
On this day of light, we stand,
Hearts aligned with what is true,
Truthfulness lights every path,
Compassion flows in all we do.
Through Forbearance, calm and strong,
We endure and we transcend,
On this day, the Fa is honored —
A way that has no start or end.

.
Across the earth, in silent grace,
Many hearts in every place,
Not in words, but how they live,
Showing what it means to give.
Step by step, the path is walked,
Not by force, and not by talk,
But through choices, clear and small,
Answering the quiet call.

.
No grand claim, no need to prove,
Just a life that starts to move
Closer to what's always been —
Pure, beyond what's heard or seen.
Guided not by outward sight,
But by truth that shines within,
What was distant, now is near,
What was lost in time grows clear.

.
On this day of light, we see,
What the heart was meant to be,
Truthfulness, Compassion grow,
Through each step the spirit shows.
Through Forbearance, calm and bright,
We return beyond all strife,
On this day, the Fa is honored —
And renews the path of life.

.
In stillness deep, with grateful heart,
We honor all this day has given —
A way restored, a path made clear,
A gift from heaven, living near.
Through every step, through every breath,
The Fa endures beyond all time —
On this day we bow in reverence,
And walk the path that is divine.
