(55) Surasaptake madhuri bhari
Filling the octave with sweetness,
We march on, singing songs.
Coating the temple of our minds with affection,
We question whether anyone is not our kin.
All the ecstasy of the divine world
Is dancing in the human world today.
The combined ambrosia of the seven realms[1]
Has blended into one, cousins.
Diffusing the sweet fragrance of magnolia,
We offer salutations to all.
