"Thus he spoke, and in response I pledged myself to practice these eight great precepts as the Guru had taught:
Kyema Ho!
The Buddha's law has come into this land of wickedness,
The gleaming fiery crystal lamp into this land of gloom,
The sacred Lord of Orgyen to Tibet, the land of ogres,
Upon unholy beings letting fall a rain of Dharma,
Showing the forlorn the upward path of fortune.
I know of no such actions even at the Diamond Throne
When Buddha was alive and present in this world.
Thus the Guru's kindness is beyond repayment.
The mandala, most secret, of the Secret MantraI, the woman Yeshe Tsogyal, have now entered
And will die before I break a jot or tittle
Of the Guru's precepts.
The eight great teachings hard to practice
I have now received.
Without a thought
For life, for body, or for worldly power,
I will keep the precepts of my Lord and Teacher,
And will die before I break my sacred pledge.
The three austerities of clothing, food, and nourishment,
The three of body, speech, and mind,
Hardships for the sake of Buddha's Doctrine
And all wandering sentient beings,
The burden of compassion,
Of holding others dearer than myself:
These eight will be my practiceUnalloyed, sincere, and single-minded.

Kyema Ho!
The Buddha's law has come into this land of wickedness,
The gleaming fiery crystal lamp into this land of gloom,
The sacred Lord of Orgyen to Tibet, the land of ogres,
Upon unholy beings letting fall a rain of Dharma,

示善道于无依者。
I know of no such actions even at the Diamond Throne
When Buddha was alive and present in this world.

The three of body, speech, and mind,
Hardships for the sake of Buddha's Doctrine
衣食滋养三苦行，
身语意等三苦行，
为佛教法历难苦，
And all wandering sentient beings,
The burden of compassion,
Of holding others dearer than myself:
These eight will be my practice
