Paṇāma

[Ka]

Sabbaṃ niruttipathapāragataṃ sabuddhaṃ,

Buddhaṃ tilokatilakaṃ hatapāpadhammaṃ;

Dhammaṃ vimuttisukhadaṃ vihatāghasaṃghaṃ,

Saṃghaṃ ca niccamabhivandiya dakkhiṇeyyaṃ.

[Kha]

Vuddhippattosmi muddho mama varagaravo sīlapaññādisobhe,

Candādicceva suddhe varajinaṭhapite sāsanābbhe patīte;

Nissāyevā tipemā paṇamiya sirasā niccamesaṃ saritvā,

Pādambhoje guṇagge hataduritamalo ānubhāvena tassā.

[Ga]

Porāṇa sīhaḷa padattha vinicchayañca,

Sabbampi māgadhaniruttinayaṃ pasatthaṃ;

Aññañca nekavidha sakkata saddasatthaṃ,

Pāramparābhata matañca nisamma sammā.

[Gha]

Bālāvatāra varamāgadha saddasatthe,

Dubbodha nekapadaattha vinicchayena;

Atthāya ādhunika bālaparamparāya,

Bālāvatāra varagaṇṭhipadaṃ karissaṃ.

[Ṅa]

Niccaṃ ye mettha bālā varahadayayutā suṭṭhu nikkhittanettā,

Puṇṇe nānānayānaṃ suratarusadise dhīrapāsaṃsiye ve;

Gambhīraṃ duttaraṃ te jinavacanudadhiṃ tiṇṇathāmā bhaveyyuṃ,

Laddhopāyā ca candaṃ taditarapacuraṃ sakkataṃ sotukāmā.

[Ca]

Ganthanipphattiyā sesa – dukkarattaṃ yathāvato;

Jānanti kusalā dhīrā, nekasatthantarādisu;

Ganthesu guṇadosampi, teyeva vidurā sadā.

[Cha]

Tasmā ettha pamādādi – dosaleso bhave yadi;

Porāṇāceraladdhīhi, vilomaṃ vā bhaveyya ce.

[Ja]

Ganthantaraṃ vigāhetvā, vicāretvā punappunaṃ;

Yuttimeva ca gaṇhantu, hutvā vīmaṃsabuddhikāti.
