1 “Uccamidaṁ maṇithūṇaṁ vimānaṁ,

Samantato dvādasa yojanāni;

Kūṭāgārā sattasatā uḷārā,

Veḷuriyathambhā rucakatthatā subhā.

2 Tatthacchasi pivasi khādasi ca,

Dibbā ca vīṇā pavadanti vagguṁ;

Dibbā rasā kāmaguṇettha pañca,

Nāriyo ca naccanti suvaṇṇachannā.

3 Kena tetādiso vaṇṇo,

…pe…

Vaṇṇo ca te sabbadisā pabhāsatī”ti.

4 So devaputto attamano,

…pe…

yassa kammassidaṁ phalaṁ.

5 “Yaṁ dadāti na taṁ hoti,

Yañceva dajjā tañceva seyyo;

Sūci dinnā sūcimeva seyyo.

6 Tena metādiso vaṇṇo,

…pe…

Vaṇṇo ca me sabbadisā pabhāsatī”ti.

7 Paṭhamasūcivimānaṁ aṭṭhamaṁ.
