May the Monkey-Tailed God of Jubilation show me how to swing
May the Eagle-Eyed God of Elevation take me underneath his wing
May the Bat-Blind God of Navigation help me to see
And may the Horse-Headed Goddess of Mercy have mercy on me
May the Nine-Lives Cat of Resurrection give me one more chance
May the Spider-Legged God of Boogie-Woogie invite me to the dance
May the Heron God grace my stance with dignity
And may the Horse-Headed Goddess of Mercy have mercy on me
Chorus:
Mercy on me. Mercy on me.
May the Horse-Headed Goddess of Mercy have mercy on me
Mercy on me. Mercy on me.
May the Horse-Headed Goddess of Mercy have mercy on me
May the Lion-Throated God of Proclamation unleash my roar
May the Dragon-Breathed Goddess of Destruction benevolently pass my door
May the Chicken Goddess fly the coup and set me free
And may the Horse-Headed Goddess of Mercy have mercy on me
Chorus
I may stumble. And I may fall.
But I got me an equine deity to help me through it all.
Along the road to serenity,
I got my goddess trotting next to me
May the Mayfly God of Carpe Diem keep me in the day
May the Hundred-Knee-ed Centipede of Humble kindly teach me how to pray
May the Canary God of Premonition tell me when to flee
And may the Horse-Headed Goddess of Mercy have mercy on me
Chorus
