“Kammaṃ bahukaṃ na kāraye,
Parivajjeyya janaṃ na uyyame;
So ussukko rasānugiddho,
Atthaṃ riñcati yo sukhādhivāho.

Paṅkoti hi naṃ avedayuṃ,
Yāyaṃ vandanapūjanā kulesu;
Sukhumaṃ sallaṃ durubbahaṃ,
Sakkāro kāpurisena dujjaho.

Na paras­su­pani­dhāya,
kammaṃ maccassa pāpakaṃ;
Attanā taṃ na seveyya,
kammabandhū hi mātiyā.

Na pare vacanā coro,
na pare vacanā muni;
Attā ca naṃ yathāvedi,
devāpi naṃ tathā vidū.

Pare ca na vijānanti,
mayamettha yamāmase;
Ye ca tattha vijānanti,
tato sammanti medhagā.

Jīvate vāpi sappañño,
api vitta­parik­khayo;
Paññāya ca alābhena,
vittavāpi na jīvati.

Sabbaṃ suṇāti sotena,
sabbaṃ passati cakkhunā;
Na ca diṭṭhaṃ sutaṃ dhīro,
sabbaṃ ujjhi­tu­marahati.

Cakkhumāssa yathā andho,
sotavā badhiro yathā;
Paññavāssa yathā mūgo,
balavā dubbaloriva;
Atha atthe samuppanne,
sayetha matasāyikan”ti.
