“Padumuttarassa bhagavato,
Lokajeṭṭhassa tādino;
Varanāgo mayā dinno,
Īsādanto urūḷhavā.

Setacchatto pasobhito,
sakappano sahatthipo;
Agghāpetvāna taṁ sabbaṁ,
saṅghārāmaṁ akārayiṁ.

Catupaññāsasahassāni,
pāsāde kārayiṁ ahaṁ;
Mahoghadānaṁ karitvāna,
niyyādesiṁ mahesino.

Anumodi mahāvīro,
sayambhū aggapuggalo;
Sabbe jane hāsayanto,
desesi amataṁ padaṁ.

Taṁ me buddho viyākāsi,
jalajuttaranāmako;
Bhikkhusaṅghe nisīditvā,
imā gāthā abhāsatha.

‘Catupaññāsasahassāni,
pāsāde kārayī ayaṁ;
Kathayissāmi vipākaṁ,
suṇotha mama bhāsato.

Aṭṭhārasasahassāni,
kūṭāgārā bhavissare;
Byamhuttamamhi nibbattā,
sabbasoṇṇamayā ca te.

Paññāsakkhattuṁ devindo,
devarajjaṁ karissati;
Aṭṭhapaññāsakkhattuñca,
cakkavattī bhavissati.

Kappasatasahassamhi,
okkākakulasambhavo;
Gotamo nāma gottena,
satthā loke bhavissati.

Devalokā cavitvāna,
sukkamūlena codito;
Aḍḍhe kule mahābhoge,
nibbattissati tāvade.

So pacchā pabbajitvāna,
sukkamūlena codito;
Raṭṭhapāloti nāmena,
hessati satthu sāvako.

Padhānapahitatto so,
upasanto nirūpadhi;
Sabbāsave pariññāya,
nibbāyissatināsavo’.

Uṭṭhāya abhinikkhamma,
jahitā bhogasampadā;
Kheḷapiṇḍeva bhogamhi,
pemaṁ mayhaṁ na vijjati.

Vīriyaṁ me dhuradhorayhaṁ,
yogakkhemādhivāhanaṁ;
Dhāremi antimaṁ dehaṁ,
sammāsambuddhasāsane.

Paṭisambhidā catasso,
vimokkhāpi ca aṭṭhime;
Chaḷabhiññā sacchikatā,
kataṁ buddhassa sāsanaṁ”.

Itthaṁ sudaṁ āyasmā raṭṭhapālo thero imā gāthāyo abhāsitthāti.

Raṭṭhapālattherassāpadānaṁ aṭṭhamaṁ.
