Susukhaṃ vata jīvāma, verinesu averino;

Verinesu manussesu, viharāma averino.

Susukhaṃ vata jīvāma, āturesu anāturā;

Āturesu manussesu, viharāma anāturā.

Susukhaṃ vata jīvāma, yesaṃ no natthi kiñcanaṃ;

Pītibhakkhā bhavissāma, devā ābhassarā yathā.

201.

Jayaṃ veraṃ pasavati, dukkhaṃ seti parājito;

Upasanto sukhaṃ seti, hitvā jayaparājayaṃ.

202.

Natthi rāgasamo aggi, natthi dosasamo kali;

Natthi khandhasamā ² dukkhā, natthi santiparaṃ sukhaṃ.

203.

Jighacchāparamā rogā, saṅkhāraparamā ⁴ dukhā;

Etaṃ ñatvā yathābhūtaṃ, nibbānaṃ paramaṃ sukhaṃ.

204.

Ārogyaparamā lābhā, santuṭṭhiparamaṃ dhanaṃ;

Vissāsaparamā ñāti ⁷, nibbānaṃ paramaṃ ⁸ sukhaṃ.

Pavivekarasaṃ pitvā ¹⁰, rasaṃ upasamassa ca;

Niddaro hoti nippāpo, dhammapītirasaṃ pivaṃ.

206.

Sāhu dassanamariyānaṃ, sannivāso sadā sukho;

Adassanena bālānaṃ, niccameva sukhī siyā.

207.

Bālasaṅgatacārī ¹² hi, dīghamaddhāna socati;

Dukkho bālehi saṃvāso, amitteneva sabbadā;

Dhīro ca sukhasaṃvāso, ñātīnaṃva samāgamo.

208.

Tasmā hi –

Dhīrañca paññañca bahussutañca, dhorayhasīlaṃ vatavantamariyaṃ;

Taṃ tādisaṃ sappurisaṃ sumedhaṃ, bhajetha nakkhattapathaṃva candimā ¹⁴.

Sukhavaggo pannarasamo niṭṭhito.
