Padumaṁva toyena alippamāno,
Eko care khaggavisāṇakappo”.
“Sīho yathā dāṭhabalī pasayha,
Rājā migānaṁ abhibhuyya cārī;
Sevetha pantāni senāsanāni,
Eko care khaggavisāṇakappo”.
“Mettaṁ upekkhaṁ karuṇaṁ vimuttiṁ,
Āsevamāno muditañca kāle;
Sabbena lokena avirujjhamāno,
Eko care khaggavisāṇakappo”.
“Rāgañca dosañca pahāya mohaṁ,
Sandālayitvāna saṁyojanāni;
Asantasaṁ jīvitasaṅkhayamhi,
Eko care khaggavisāṇakappo”.
“Bhajanti sevanti ca kāraṇatthā,
Nikkāraṇā dullabhā ajja mittā;
Attaṭṭhapaññā asucī manussā,
Eko care khaggavisāṇakappo”.
Khaggavisāṇasuttaṁ tatiyaṁ.
