23. Nāgavaggo

320.

Ahaṃ nāgova saṅgāme, cāpato patitaṃ saraṃ;

Ativākyaṃ titikkhissaṃ, dussīlo hi bahujjano.

321.

Dantaṃ nayanti samitiṃ, dantaṃ rājābhirūhati;

Danto seṭṭho manussesu, yotivākyaṃ titikkhati.

322.

Varamassatarā dantā, ājānīyā ca ājānīyāva (syā.) sindhavā;

Kuñjarā ca kuñjarāva (syā.) mahānāgā, attadanto tato varaṃ.

323.

Na hi etehi yānehi, gaccheyya agataṃ disaṃ;

Yathāttanā sudantena, danto dantena gacchati.

324.

Dhanapālo dhanapālako (sī. syā. kaṃ. pī.) nāma kuñjaro, kaṭukabhedano kaṭukappabhedano (sī. syā. pī.) dunnivārayo;

Baddho kabaḷaṃ na bhuñjati, sumarati susarati (ka.) nāgavanassa kuñjaro.

325.

Middhī yadā hoti mahagghaso ca, niddāyitā samparivattasāyī;

Mahāvarāhova nivāpapuṭṭho, punappunaṃ gabbhamupeti mando.

326.

Idaṃ pure cittamacāri cārikaṃ, yenicchakaṃ yatthakāmaṃ yathāsukhaṃ;

Tadajjahaṃ niggahessāmi yoniso, hatthippabhinnaṃ viya aṅkusaggaho.

327.

Appamādaratā hotha, sacittamanurakkhatha;

Duggā uddharathattānaṃ, paṅke sannova sattova (sī. pī.) kuñjaro.

328.

Sace labhetha nipakaṃ sahāyaṃ, saddhiṃ caraṃ sādhuvihāridhīraṃ;

Abhibhuyya sabbāni parissayāni, careyya tenattamano satīmā.

329.

No ce labhetha nipakaṃ sahāyaṃ, saddhiṃ caraṃ sādhuvihāridhīraṃ;

Rājāva raṭṭhaṃ vijitaṃ pahāya, eko care mātaṅgaraññeva nāgo.

330.

Ekassa caritaṃ seyyo, natthi bāle sahāyatā;

Eko care na ca pāpāni kayirā, appossukko mātaṅgaraññeva nāgo.

331.

Atthamhi jātamhi sukhā sahāyā, tuṭṭhī sukhā yā itarītarena;

Puññaṃ sukhaṃ jīvitasaṅkhayamhi, sabbassa dukkhassa sukhaṃ pahānaṃ.

332.

Sukhā matteyyatā loke, atho petteyyatā sukhā;

Sukhā sāmaññatā loke, atho brahmaññatā sukhā.

333.

Sukhaṃ yāva jarā sīlaṃ, sukhā saddhā patiṭṭhitā;

Sukho paññāya paṭilābho, pāpānaṃ akaraṇaṃ sukhaṃ.

Nāgavaggo tevīsatimo niṭṭhito.
