2. Sujātajātaka

1 “Kiṁ nu santaramānova,

lāyitvā haritaṁ tiṇaṁ;

Khāda khādāti lapasi,

gatasattaṁ jaraggavaṁ.

2 Na hi annena pānena,

mato goṇo samuṭṭhahe;

Tvañca tucchaṁ vilapasi,

yathā taṁ dummatī tathā”.

3 “Tatheva tiṭṭhati sīsaṁ,

hatthapādā ca vāladhi;

Sotā tatheva tiṭṭhanti,

maññe goṇo samuṭṭhahe.

4 Nevayyakassa sīsañca,

hatthapādā ca dissare;

Rudaṁ mattikathūpasmiṁ,

nanu tvaññeva dummati”.

5 “Ādittaṁ vata maṁ santaṁ,

ghatasittaṁva pāvakaṁ;

Vārinā viya osiñcaṁ,

sabbaṁ nibbāpaye daraṁ.

6 Abbahī vata me sallaṁ,

yamāsi hadayassitaṁ;

Yo me sokaparetassa,

pitusokaṁ apānudi.

7 Sohaṁ abbūḷhasallosmi,

vītasoko anāvilo;

Na socāmi na rodāmi,

tava sutvāna māṇava.

8 Evaṁ karonti sappaññā,

ye honti anukampakā;

Vinivattenti sokamhā,

sujāto pitaraṁ yathā”ti.

9 Sujātajātakaṁ dutiyaṁ.
