赞土地公 林钰堂
福德正神安闾里
慈眉善目听众求
人间琐事理不完
权充菩提道资粮
应弟子绵延之请而作
二○○八年二月四日立春
养和斋 于加州

Praise to District Earth Gods Yutang Lin
Righteous Gods of merits and virtues
Guardians of our neighborhood
With merciful features and kind attention
Daily listening to people's requests
Trifles of human affairs seeking help
No end in sight of their pouring in
With intention to accumulate merits toward Enlightenment
You busy yourselves with such matters
Note: Tu Di Gong, earth gods of small localities, are popular deities in Asian countries. They serve as guardians for the peace and prosperity of small districts, and are worshipped by local people.
Upon request from disciple Mian Yan
