‘‘Pabbhārakūṭaṃ nissāya, sobhito nāma tāpaso;

Pavattaphalaṃ bhuñjitvā, vasati pabbatantare.

2.

‘‘Aggiṃ dāruṃ āharitvā, ujjālesiṃ ahaṃ tadā;

Uttamatthaṃ gavesanto, brahmalokūpapattiyā.

Tuvaṃ aggiṃ paricara, handa te aggidārukaṃ.

Na tattha kaṭṭhaṃ pajjhāyi, pāṭiheraṃ mahesino.

Niratthakaṃ vataṃ tuyhaṃ, aggiṃ paricarassu me.

Sabbāsavaparikkhīṇo, natthi dāni punabbhavo.

12.

‘‘Yadi buddhosi sabbaññū, pabhaṅkara tamonuda;

Namassissāmi taṃ deva, dukkhassantakaro tuvaṃ.

Nisīda nātha sabbaññu, upaṭṭhissāmahaṃ tuvaṃ.

Nimantayitvā sambuddhaṃ, pabbataṃ agamāsahaṃ.

15.

Madhunā yojayitvāna, phalaṃ buddhassadāsahaṃ.

16.

Tattha cittaṃ pasādesiṃ, pekkhanto lokanāyakaṃ.

Mamassame nisīditvā, imā gāthā abhāsatha.

Tamahaṃ kittayissāmi, suṇātha mama bhāsato.

19.

Sahassakkhattuṃ rājā ca, cakkavattī bhavissati.

Annaṃ pānañca vatthañca, sayanañca mahārahaṃ.

Sadā pamudito cāyaṃ, bhavissati anāmayo.

22.

‘‘‘Upapajjati yaṃ yoniṃ, devattaṃ atha mānusaṃ;

Sabbattha sukhito hutvā, manussattaṃ gamissati.

23.

‘‘‘Ajjhāyako mantadharo, tiṇṇaṃ vedāna pāragū;

Sambuddhaṃ upagantvāna, arahā so bhavissati’.

‘‘Yato sarāmi attānaṃ, yato pattosmi viññutaṃ;

Bhoge me ūnatā natthi, phaladānassidaṃ phalaṃ.

25.

‘‘Varadhammamanuppatto, rāgadose samūhaniṃ;

Sabbāsavaparikkhīṇo, natthi dāni punabbhavo.

26.

‘‘Kilesā jhāpitā mayhaṃ, bhavā sabbe samūhatā;

Nāgova bandhanaṃ chetvā, viharāmi anāsavo.

27.

‘‘Svāgataṃ vata me āsi, mama buddhassa santike;

Tisso vijjā anuppattā, kataṃ buddhassa sāsanaṃ.

28.

‘‘Paṭisambhidā catasso, vimokkhāpi ca aṭṭhime;

Chaḷabhiññā sacchikatā, kataṃ buddhassa sāsanaṃ’’.

Tissametteyyattherassāpadānaṃ paṭhamaṃ.
