“Padumuttarabuddhassa,
bodhiyā pādaputtame;
Haṭṭho haṭṭhena cittena,
dhajamāropayiṁ ahaṁ.

Patitapattāni gaṇhitvā,
bahiddhā chaḍḍayiṁ ahaṁ;
Antosuddhaṁ bahisuddhaṁ,
adhimuttamanāsavaṁ.

Sammukhā viya sambuddhaṁ,
avandiṁ bodhimuttamaṁ;
Padumuttaro lokavidū,
āhutīnaṁ paṭiggaho.

Bhikkhusaṅghe ṭhito satthā,
imā gāthā abhāsatha;
‘Iminā dhajadānena,
upaṭṭhānena cūbhayaṁ.

Kappānaṁ satasahassaṁ,
duggatiṁ so na gacchati;
Devesu devasobhagyaṁ,
anubhossatinappakaṁ.

Anekasatakkhattuñca,
rājā raṭṭhe bhavissati;
Uggato nāma nāmena,
cakkavattī bhavissati.

Sampattiṁ anubhotvāna,
sukkamūlena codito;
Gotamassa bhagavato,
sāsanebhiramissati’.

Padhānapahitattomhi,
upasanto nirūpadhi;
Dhāremi antimaṁ dehaṁ,
sammāsambuddhasāsane.

Ekapaññāsasahasse,
kappe uggatasavhayo;
Paññāsasatasahasse,
khattiyo meghasavhayo.

Paṭisambhidā catasso,
…pe…
kataṁ buddhassa sāsanaṁ”.

Itthaṁ sudaṁ āyasmā dhajadāyako thero imā gāthāyo abhāsitthāti.

Dhajadāyakattherassāpadānaṁ aṭṭhamaṁ.
