When I place an image of you above my head
You are the Snowy Mountains beyond mountains
Mother of all streams and rivers
With your unconditional love
To release us from fear and despair
When I place an image of you above my head
You are the five oceans of the world
Embodiment of wisdom and courage
From memories of your speeches
To realise answers with certainty, and in confidence
When I place an image of you above my head
You are the sacred turquoise lakes in Tibet
Beholder of our innocent souls
Following the light of your pristine beauty
Into the doorway to liberation and purity
When I place the image of you above my head
You are the boundless sky as far as eyes see
Bearer of the Sun, the Moon, and the Stars
In the presence of your omniscient mind
Our nature of being awakens
