‘‘Addasaṃ virajaṃ buddhaṃ, gacchantaṃ anilañjase;

‘‘Yassa saddhā tathāgate, acalā suppatiṭṭhitā;

Tena cittappasādena, duggatiṃ so na gacchati.

‘‘Svāgataṃ vata me āsi, buddhaseṭṭhassa santike;

‘‘Ekanavutito kappe, yaṃ pupphamabhiropayiṃ;

Duggatiṃ nābhijānāmi, buddhapūjāyidaṃ phalaṃ.

‘‘Sucārudassanā nāma, aṭṭhete ekanāmakā;
