Svakkhato Bhagavata Dhammo Sanditthiko
Akaliko Ehi-passiko Opanayiko Paccattam
Veditabbo vinnuhi ti |
The Dhamma of the Blessed One Is
perfectly expounded, To be seen here and now, Not delayed in time,
Inviting one to come and see, Onward leading (to Nibbana), To be
known by the wise, Each for himself. |

Dhammam jivitam yava nibbanam
Saranam gacchami
Ye ca
Dhamma atita ca
Ye ca
Dhamma anagata
Paccuppanna ca ye Dhamma
Aham
vandami sabbada
|
The
Dhammas of the ages past,
The
Dhammas that are yet to come,
The
Dhammas of the present age,
I
always pay homage to them.

Natthi me saranam annam
Dhammo me saranam varam
Etena
sacca-vajjena
Hotu
me jayamangalam
|
No
other refuge do I seek;
The
Dhamma is my matchless refuge;
By
the might of this truth
May
joyous victory be mine! |
|
Uttamangena vandeham
Dhammam ca tividham varam
Dhamme yo khalito doso
Dhammo khamatu tam mamam |
With
my bows I humbly worship,
The
Dhamma triply matchless;
If I
have done wrong to the Dhamma,
May
the Dhamma forgive me. |
