“කේනස්සු පිහිතෝ ලෝකෝ, කිස්මිං ලෝකෝ පතිට්ඨිතෝ; කේනස්සු උඩ්ඩිතෝ ලෝකෝ, කේනස්සු පරිවාරිතෝ”ති.
“What has the world fastened shut? On what is the world grounded? What has trapped the world? By what is it surrounded?”
“මච්චුනා පිහිතෝ ලෝකෝ, දුක්ඛේ ලෝකෝ පතිට්ඨිතෝ; තණ්හාය උඩ්ඩිතෝ ලෝකෝ, ජරාය පරිවාරිතෝ”ති.
“Mortality has the world fastened shut. The world is grounded on suffering. Craving has trapped the world. It’s surrounded by old age.”
