“Anutīracārī bhaddante,
sahāya­manu­dhāva maṃ;
Mahā me gahito maccho,
so maṃ harati vegasā”.

“Gambhīracārī bhaddante,
daḷhaṃ gaṇhāhi thāmasā;
Ahaṃ taṃ uddharissāmi,
supaṇṇo uragāmiva”.

“Vivādo no samuppanno,
dabbhapuppha suṇohi me;
Samehi medhagaṃ samma,
vivādo vūpasammataṃ”.

“Dhammaṭṭhohaṃ pure āsiṃ,
bahū aḍḍā me tīritā;
Samemi medhagaṃ samma,
vivādo vūpasammataṃ.

Anutīracāri naṅguṭṭhaṃ,
sīsaṃ gambhīracārino;
Accāyaṃ majjhimo khaṇḍo,
dhammaṭṭhassa bhavissati”.

“Cirampi bhakkho abhavissa,
sace na vivademase;
Asīsakaṃ anaṅguṭṭhaṃ,
siṅgālo harati rohitaṃ”.

“Yathāpi rājā nandeyya,
rajjaṃ laddhāna khattiyo;
Evāhamajja nandāmi,
disvā puṇṇamukhaṃ patiṃ.

Kathaṃ nu thalajo santo,
udake macchaṃ parāmasi;
Puṭṭho me samma akkhāhi,
kathaṃ adhigataṃ tayā”.

“Vivādena kisā honti,
vivādena dhanakkhayā;
Jīnā uddā vivādena,
bhuñja māyāvi rohitaṃ.

Evameva manussesu,
vivādo yattha jāyati;
Dhammaṭṭhaṃ paṭidhāvanti,
so hi nesaṃ vināyako;
Dhanāpi tattha jīyanti,
rājakoso pavaḍḍhatī”ti.

Dabbha­puppha­jātakaṃ pañcamaṃ.
