Sobhitattheraapadāna

1 “Padumuttaro nāma jino,

lokajeṭṭho narāsabho;

Mahato janakāyassa,

deseti amataṁ padaṁ.

2 Tassāhaṁ vacanaṁ sutvā,

vācāsabhimudīritaṁ;

Añjaliṁ paggahetvāna,

ekaggo āsahaṁ tadā.

3 ‘Yathā samuddo udadhīnamaggo,

Nerū nagānaṁ pavaro siluccayo;

Tatheva ye cittavasena vattare’,

Na buddhañāṇassa kalaṁ upenti te.

4 Dhammavidhiṁ ṭhapetvāna,

buddho kāruṇiko isi;

Bhikkhusaṅghe nisīditvā,

imā gāthā abhāsatha.

5 ‘Yo so ñāṇaṁ pakittesi,

buddhamhi lokanāyake;

Kappānaṁ satasahassaṁ,

duggatiṁ na gamissati.

6 Kilese jhāpayitvāna,

ekaggo susamāhito;

Sobhito nāma nāmena,

hessati satthu sāvako’.

7 Paññāse kappasahasse,

sattevāsuṁ yasuggatā;

Sattaratanasampannā,

cakkavattī mahabbalā.

8 Kilesā jhāpitā mayhaṁ,

bhavā sabbe samūhatā;

Tisso vijjā anuppattā,

kataṁ buddhassa sāsanaṁ.

9 Paṭisambhidā catasso,

vimokkhāpi ca aṭṭhime;

Chaḷabhiññā sacchikatā,

kataṁ buddhassa sāsanaṁ”.

10 Itthaṁ sudaṁ āyasmā sobhito thero imā gāthāyo abhāsitthāti.

11 Sobhitattherassāpadānaṁ paṭhamaṁ.
