“Candaṃva vimalaṃ suddhaṃ,
vippa­sanna­ma­nāvi­laṃ;
Nandī­bhava­parik­khī­ṇaṃ,
tiṇṇaṃ loke visattikaṃ.

Nibbāpayantaṃ janataṃ,
Tiṇṇaṃ tārayataṃ varaṃ;
Muniṃ vanamhi jhāyantaṃ,
Ekaggaṃ susamāhitaṃ.

Bandhu­jīvaka­pupphāni,
lagetvā suttakenahaṃ;
Buddhassa abhiropayiṃ,
sikhino lokabandhuno.

Ekattiṃse ito kappe,
yaṃ kammamakariṃ tadā;
Duggatiṃ nābhijānāmi,
buddha­pū­jāyi­daṃ phalaṃ.

Ito sattamake kappe,
manujindo mahāyaso;
Samantacakkhu nāmāsi,
cakkavattī mahabbalo.

Paṭisambhidā catasso,
vimokkhāpi ca aṭṭhime;
Chaḷabhiññā sacchikatā,
kataṃ buddhassa sāsanaṃ”.

Itthaṃ sudaṃ āyasmā bandhujīvako thero imā gāthāyo abhāsitthāti.

Bandhu­jīvakat­theras­sāpadā­naṃ paṭhamaṃ.
