NARRATOR: Peace and pleasure be with you!
Whether it from your cares
That life goes, the earth blossoms,
Creation exists in the world.
Peace and pleasure be with you!
With everyone who builds a shelter,
Sows corn, grazes cows,
Protects the blossoming gardens!
Peace and pleasure be with you!
Sunset shines in honor of you,
For the sake of you in mountains rustle
The rivers and running streams…
Peace and pleasure be with you!
The sun shines for you,
The stars pouring the light on the Earth
Shine in the evening hour.
Peace and pleasure be with you!
Clouds float
From far away for you
Carrying light water…
Peace and pleasure be with you!
Whose work helps the earth to live,
All the people, without cares of which
There would be darkness in the world,
Peace and pleasure be with you!
