Sukihotu
Paritta is one of the most popular sutta for chanting amongst Buddhist. This sutta is chant for protection and when in fear. It's normally chant in Pali language. However, here is the English translation.
He who is skilled in doing good and
Paritta Sutta (Protection Discourses)
who wishes to attain that state of clam should act thus,
He should be able, upright, perfectly upright,
obedient, gentle and humble.
Contented, easily look after,
with few duties, simple in livelihood,
Controlled in senses, discreet,
not impudent, not greedy attached to families
He should not commit any slight wrong,
so that other wise men might not find fault in him,
May all being be happy and safe,
may all being have happy mind
Whatsoever living beings there are,
feeble and strong,
Long or large, medium, short,
subtle or gross
Seen or unseen,
those dwelling near or far,
Those who are born and those who are to be born,
may all beings, have happy minds
Let not one deceive one another,
not despise any person anywhere,
In anger or in ill-will,
let him not wish any harm to another.
One should cultivate for all the world,
a heart of boundless loving-kindness.
Above, below and all round,
without any obstruction, without any hatred, without any enmity
Whether he stands,
walk, sits or lies down,
As long as he is awake, he should develop this mindfulness,
this is called a sublime state here.
Not falling into erroneous into views,
but virtuous and endowed with insight,
he discards attachment to sensuous desires.
Truly, he does not come again, to be conceived in a womb
By the firm determination of this truth
May I be well and happy
May I be well and happy
May I be well and happy
