5. Khurappajātaka

1 “Disvā khurappe dhanuveganunne,

Khagge gahīte tikhiṇe teladhote;

Tasmiṁ bhayasmiṁ maraṇe viyūḷhe,

Kasmā nu te nāhu chambhitattaṁ”.

2 “Disvā khurappe dhanuveganunne,

Khagge gahīte tikhiṇe teladhote;

Tasmiṁ bhayasmiṁ maraṇe viyūḷhe,

Vedaṁ alatthaṁ vipulaṁ uḷāraṁ.

3 So vedajāto ajjhabhaviṁ amitte,

Pubbeva me jīvitamāsi cattaṁ;

Na hi jīvite ālayaṁ kubbamāno,

Sūro kayirā sūrakiccaṁ kadācī”ti.

4 Khurappajātakaṁ pañcamaṁ.
