Pāṇaṃ na haññe na cadinnamādiye,
Musā na bhāse na ca majjapo siyā;
Abrahmacariyā virameyya methunā,
Rattiṃ na bhuñjeyya vikālabhojanaṃ.

Mālaṃ na dhāre na ca gandhamācare,
Mañce chamāyaṃ va sayetha santhate;
Etañhi aṭṭhaṅ­gika­mā­hu­posa­thaṃ,
Buddhena dukkhantagunā pakāsitaṃ.

Cando ca suriyo ca ubho sudassanā,
Obhāsayaṃ anupariyanti yāvatā;
Tamonudā te pana antalikkhagā,
Nabhe pabhāsanti disāvirocanā.

Etasmiṃ yaṃ vijjati antare dhanaṃ,
Muttā maṇi veḷuriyañca bhaddakaṃ;
Siṅgīsuvaṇṇaṃ atha vāpi kañcanaṃ,
Yaṃ jātarūpaṃ haṭakanti vuccati.

Aṭṭhaṅ­gupetassa uposathassa,
Kalampi te nānubhavanti soḷasiṃ;
Candappabhā tāragaṇā ca sabbe.

Tasmā hi nārī ca naro ca sīlavā,
Aṭṭhaṅgupetaṃ upa­vas­su­posa­thaṃ;
Puññāni katvāna sukhudrayāni,
Aninditā saggamupenti ṭhānan”ti.

Dutiyaṃ.
