山水从眼前划过，唱诵这首歌感动到泪流满面
我们唱《世界啊》，已经学会八成熟了，继续要把它学会了，我当时第一次唱这个的时候，正好坐在汽车上，看着窗外的风景，树木向后倒退，房舍向后倒退，山水从我们的眼前划过，一边唱着这首歌然后感动的泪流满面。
We have already learned the song "World!" to about eighty percent proficiency, and we must continue until we master it completely. When I first sang this song, I happened to be sitting in a car, watching the scenery outside the window—trees receding backward, buildings receding backward, mountains and rivers flowing past before my eyes. As I sang this song, I was moved to tears streaming down my face.
学佛的人要把我们的心修的越来越敏感，越来越有一种灵动。那之后慢慢就会感受众生的心，同时我们和诸佛菩萨们会有所通，跟佛菩萨就会有感应。如果我们心像那个砖头一样麻木不仁，说明学佛还很远很远。
Those who study Buddhism must cultivate their hearts to become increasingly sensitive, increasingly spiritually responsive. Gradually, we will be able to feel the hearts of sentient beings and, at the same time, achieve communion with the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas—a spiritual resonance with them. If our hearts remain numb and insensitive like bricks, it indicates that we are still very, very far from truly studying Buddhism.
在《法华经》里说如果这个人挖井，挖土挖挖，挖的还是干土，说明离水还很远。如果挖到泥了，再挖下去越来越湿润，挖出来不是干土已经是泥巴了，说明离水已经很近了。
The Lotus Sutra states that if a person digs a well and keeps digging, finding only dry soil, it indicates that water is still very far away. But if they dig up mud, and as they continue, the soil becomes increasingly moist—no longer dry soil but already mud—this shows that water is very close.
我们修行也是这样，要把我们的心变得越来越柔软，念一句佛号自己会感动的落泪。想自己的师父心会慢慢的平静下来，这个学佛就很好。
Our spiritual cultivation is the same: we must make our hearts increasingly soft and tender, so that reciting a single Buddha’s name moves us to tears. When thinking of our master, the heart gradually becomes peaceful and calm—this is excellent Buddhist practice.
唱这个的时候回向一切众生，因为这个功德很大，你们唱的时候我会发现你们身上很清凉，有的人会感觉到身上像过电一样，麻酥酥。有的人寒毛会直竖。有的人会觉得身上很热，像要冒汗一样。这个都是感应、都是加持、都是不可思议佛力跟你的心有感应，佛的力量已经入你的身心了。
When singing this song, dedicate the merit to all sentient beings, for this merit is profound. As you sing, I notice your bodies become cool and refreshing. Some people feel as if electricity is passing through their bodies—a tingling sensation. Others feel their hair standing on end. Some experience their bodies becoming very hot, as if about to perspire. These are all spiritual responses, all blessings, all manifestations of the inconceivable power of the Buddhas resonating with your hearts—the Buddha’s power has already entered your body and mind.
这首歌唱的时候要很充满深情的，所以：世界啊！一个咏叹调一样，要把节奏掌握好：我们在您怀里生生死死，我们的苦乐在您身上自然舞动，您是我们的家，从古至今，我们永远珍惜您！
This song must be sung with deep feeling, so: "World!" Like an aria, one must master the rhythm well: "In Your embrace we live and die through countless lifetimes; Our joys and sorrows naturally dance upon Your body; You are our home, from ancient times until now, we forever cherish You!"

我们这个念虽然好听，没有唱得好听，但是一定要唱到有感情才会好听，真情流露才好听，你看不要说无相，佛说了生死靠无相，诸法实相，实相不可言不可说，无相无味。就这个歌都要手把手教啊，师父要掏心掏肝教，你们唱的才能跟我一样，越跟我一样加持力越大，唱唱唱不知不觉眼含热泪，这个就是感觉要上来，含着泪这个就会身心清净，就感觉到诸佛菩萨降临、加被。
Though our recitation sounds pleasant, we haven’t sung it beautifully enough. We must sing it with true feeling for it to sound beautiful—only when genuine emotions flow forth, does it become truly beautiful. You see, do not speak of formlessness—the Buddha said that liberation from birth and death depends on formlessness, the true characteristics of all dharmas, which cannot be spoken or expressed, formless and flavorless. Yet even this song requires hand-by-hand instruction! The master must teach with complete devotion, pouring out his heart and soul, so that your singing can become like mine. The more it resembles mine, the greater the blessing power. As you sing, sing and sing—unknowingly, your eyes fill with tears. This is when the feeling is emerging. Singing with tears purifies body and mind, and one feels the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas descending, bestowing their blessings.
《世界啊》中文歌词
世界啊！我们在您怀里生生死死，
我们永远珍惜您。
《世界啊》英文歌词
World, we live and die on your lap.
On you we experience all our woes and joys.
You are our ancestral home of old.
Forever we cherish and adore you.
We wish to transform you into the pure realm of our dreams.
We wish to transform you into a land for all creatures,
Equal for all and free of prejudice.
We wish to transform you into a loving, warm, and gentle goddess.
Our hope in you is so ever resolute.
So please be the ground on which we all may live
So all these wishes may come true,
So all these wishes may come true.
Do not show us the dark side of your character,
Where nature's calamities reign.
In every section of our world's land
May there thrive a fertile field of peace and joy,
Rich with the leaves and fruits of happiness,
Filled with the many sweet scents of freedom.
