“Ambāhamaddaṃ vanaman­ta­rasmiṃ,
Nīlobhāsaṃ phalitaṃ saṃvirūḷhaṃ;
Tamaddasaṃ phalahetu vibhaggaṃ,
Taṃ disvā bhikkhācariyaṃ carāmi.

Selaṃ sumaṭṭhaṃ nara­vī­ra­niṭṭhi­taṃ,
Nārī yugaṃ dhārayi appasaddaṃ;
Dutiyañca āgamma ahosi saddo,
Taṃ disvā bhikkhācariyaṃ carāmi.

Dijā dijaṃ kuṇapa­mā­haran­taṃ,
Ekaṃ samānaṃ bahukā samecca;
Āhārahetū paripātayiṃsu,
Taṃ disvā bhikkhācariyaṃ carāmi.

Usabhāhamaddaṃ yūthassa majjhe,
Calakkakuṃ vaṇṇa­ba­lū­papan­naṃ;
Tamaddasaṃ kāmahetu vitunnaṃ,
Taṃ disvā bhikkhācariyaṃ carāmi”.

“Karaṇḍako kaliṅgānaṃ,
gandhārānañca naggaji;
Nimirājā videhānaṃ,
pañcālānañca dummukho;
Ete raṭṭhāni hitvāna,
pabbajiṃsu akiñcanā.

Sabbepime devasamā samāgatā,
Aggī yathā pajjalito tathevime;
Ahampi eko carissāmi bhaggavi,
Hitvāna kāmāni yathodhikāni”.

“Ayameva kālo na hi añño atthi,
Anusāsitā me na bhaveyya pacchā;
Ahampi ekā carissāmi bhaggava,
Sakuṇīva muttā purisassa hatthā”.

“Āmaṃ pakkañca jānanti,
atho loṇaṃ aloṇakaṃ;
Tamahaṃ disvāna pabbajiṃ,
careva tvaṃ carāmahan”ti.

Kumbha­kā­ra­jātakaṃ tatiyaṃ.
