Ettāvatā ca amhehi

Sambhataṁ puñña-sampadaṁ,

Sabbe devā, Sabbe bhūtā, Sabbe sattā’numodantu

Sabba-sampatti siddhiyā.

I share my merits with all Devas (heavenly beings),

all beings, all creatures,

May they rejoice in our merits, 

May they be happy.

Idaṁ me ñātīnaṁ hotu,

sukhitā hontu ñātayo.

I share my merits with all departed relatives,

May they rejoice in our merits, 

May they be happy.

Aspiration

Iminā puñña-kammena

Mā me bāla-samāgamo,

Sata samāgamo hotu

Yāva nibbāna-pattiyā.

 

By this meritorious act

may I never meet with the foolish;

may I [only] meet with the wise

up until I attain Nibbāna.

Idaṁ me puññaṁ āsavakkhayāvahaṁ hotu.

Idaṁ me puññaṁ nibbānassa paccayo hotu.

By the power of this merit, may it be supportive condition for my purification of the mind till no more defilements.

By the power of this merit,  may it be supportive condition for my attainment of Nibbāna.

Te sabbe me samaṁ puññabhāgaṁ labhantu.

I share my merits with all beings.

May they rejoice in the merits,

May  they be happy.

Sādhu! Sādhu! Sādhu!
