may all creatures be happy and safe
may they all have happy minds.
whatever living things there are
-- whether feeble or strong
long or short, whether stout
or of medium size
whether quick or slow
whether big or little, whether seen
or unseen
whether those living near or far away --
may all these beings be happy
may they all have happy minds.
-- from "Karinaya Metta Sutta" (The Sutra of Lovingkindness)
