This house we have built with my new love together
Blessing we seek for our families to live in forever
For meer bricks and mortar carry no history
But the land it is built on has seen many a story
And what of the cemetery that lay by the way
What ogre may come to make you it’s prey
For the home should be free of all past infestations
And a new way shown to bring in happy relations
The Brahmin Father will show us the way
And a path he has made to chase evil away
And when clear the Father has made the path free
Then good spirits may enter love and warmth all can see
Now you can enter but first nine monks in all
They will chant and pray with us to protect these four walls
For three days thereafter we continue to observe
The rites of the faithful must be kept undisturbed
With friends from the village and all family as well
This new home starts to feel like a safe place to dwell
The first night we slept and all was warm safe and well
Thank the Buddha that we received Home Blessings where we dwell
