4. Mittakaṇḍo
Hitakāro paro bandhu,
Bandhūpi ahito paro;
A hito dehajo byādhi,
Hitaṃ araññamosadhaṃ.
Parokkhe guṇa-hantāraṃ,
Paccakkhe piyavādinaṃ;
Vajjeyya ¶ tādisaṃ mittaṃ,
Visakumbhe yathā madhuṃ.
Dhanahīne caje mitto,
Puttadārā sahodarā;
Dhanavantaṃva sevanti,
Dhanaṃ loke mahā sakhā.
Jāneyya pesena bhaccaṃ,
Bandhuṃ vāpi bhayāgate;
Appakāsu tathā mittaṃ,
Dārañca vibhavakkhaye.
So bandhu yo hite yutto,
Pitaro honti posako;
Taṃ mittaṃ yattha vissāso,
Sā bhariyā ca yassa nibbūti.
Na vissase a-vissattaṃ,
Mittañcāpi na vissase;
Kadāci kupito mito,
Sabbaṃ dosaṃ pakāsaye.
Sakiṃ duṭṭhañca yo mittaṃ,
Puna sandhitumicchati;
So ¶ maccuṃ upagaṇhāti,
Gabbhamassatarī yathā.
Vahe a-mittaṃ khandhena,
Yāva kālo anāgato;
Tameva āgate kāle,
Sele bhinde ghaṭaṃ iva.
Iṇaseso aggiseso,
Satruseso tatheva ca;
Punappunaṃ vivaḍḍhanti,
Tasmā sesaṃ na kāraye.
Padumaṃva mukhaṃ yassa,
Vācā candana sītalā;
Tādisaṃ nopaseveyya,
Hadayetu halāhalaṃ.
Na seve pharusaṃ sāmiṃ,
Naca seveyya macchariṃ;
Tato apaggaṇhaṃ sāmiṃ,
Neva niggahitaṃ tato.
Siṅgī paññāsa hatthena,
Vajje satena vājinaṃ;
Hatthiṃ ¶ dantiṃ sahassena,
Desa cāgena dujjanaṃ.
Kudesañca kumittañca,
Kukulañca kubandhavaṃ;
Kudārañca kudāsañca,
Dūrato parivajjaye.
Rogāture ca dubbhikkhe,
Byasane sattu viggahe;
Rājadvāre susāne ca,
Ye tiṭṭhanti sumittakā.
Sītavāco bahumitto,
Pharuso appamittako;
Upamaṃ ettha ñātabbā,
Canda-sūriya-rājūnaṃ.
Mittakaṇḍo niṭṭhito.
