Chant-along words for ‘Seven Verses’

Here is a prayer to Tara by Atisha chanted by Lama Abo and Bunima

and another chant by Sangha. Here are the Words for this prayer.

This is a Chant by Lama Abo and Lama Bunima that starts with a special Seven-Limb Prayer addressed to Arya Tara, followed by Invocation verses, followed by the ‘21 Tara Chant’ above, followed by something I don’t recognize, followed by the ‘Seven Verse chant’. Here are the Words.

Here is a Tara chant by Garchen Rinpoche. I don’t know the name.

I was able to track down the Words for only three of the four verses.

Here is a Tara Chant by Traga Rinpoche. This is unique in my collection because I did not request Rinpoche to chant this. Rather, he just told me to make a recording of this! The Tibetan name of the practice is ‘dgongs gter sgrol ma'i zab tig las mandral cho ga tshogs gnyis snyisd po bzhugs.’ He said it is full of blessings just to listen. (approx 56 min)
