"Ode to Mazu"
—The Auspicious Autumn
Festival of Mazu
Written By/AI Shipian
湄屿钟灵毓圣慈,
Meiyu's sacred grace gives
birth to holy compassion,
立德澄怀映碧漪。
Establishing virtue with
a clear heart that mirrors
the emerald ripples.
行善沧溟平恶浪,
Doing good across the vast sea,
calming the vicious waves,
施仁渔火护归期。
Bestowing benevolence
through fishing lights,
guarding the return home.
德泽长流安海国,
Virtue's grace flows long,
bringing peace
to the maritime nation,
慈云永驻佑渔船。
Compassionate clouds
forever abide,
protecting the fishing boats.
虔诚共祷升平世,
With devotion we pray together
for an era of peace,
俎豆馨香代代延。
The fragrant offerings
of ritual vessels continue
from generation to generation.
大爱无疆昭日月,
Great love knows no bounds,
shining with sun and moon,
妈祖儿女遍天涯。
Mazu's children are scattered
reaching every corner of the world.
千秋伟业家国情,
Great undertakings spanning
a thousand years,
with devotion to family and country.
久久万安颂中华。
Forever and ever,
Forever peace— praising China.
