Sunikkhittavagga

“Disvāna devaṁ paṭipucchi bhikkhu,
Ucce vimānamhi ciraṭṭhitike;
Āmuttahatthābharaṇaṁ yasassiṁ,
Dibbe vimānamhi yathāpi candimā.

Alaṅkato malyadharo suvattho,
Sukuṇḍalī kappitakesamassu;
Āmuttahatthābharaṇo yasassī,
Dibbe vimānamhi yathāpi candimā.

Dibbā ca vīṇā pavadanti vagguṁ,
Aṭṭhaṭṭhakā sikkhitā sādhurūpā;
Dibbā ca kaññā tidasacarā uḷārā,
Naccanti gāyanti pamodayanti.

Deviddhipattosi mahānubhāvo,
Manussabhūto kimakāsi puññaṁ;
Kenāsi evaṁ jalitānubhāvo,
Vaṇṇo ca te sabbadisā pabhāsatī”ti.

So devaputto attamano,
…pe…
yassa kammassidaṁ phalaṁ.

“Ahaṁ manussesu manussabhūto,
Saṅgamma rakkhissaṁ paresaṁ dhenuyo;
Tato ca āgā samaṇo mamantike,
Gāvo ca māse agamaṁsu khādituṁ.

Dvayajja kiccaṁ ubhayañca kāriyaṁ,
Iccevahaṁ bhante tadā vicintayiṁ;
Tato ca saññaṁ paṭiladdha yoniso,
Dadāmi bhanteti khipiṁ anantakaṁ.

So māsakhettaṁ turito avāsariṁ,
Purā ayaṁ bhañjati yassidaṁ dhanaṁ;
Tato ca kaṇho urago mahāviso,
Aḍaṁsi pāde turitassa me sato.

Svāhaṁ aṭṭomhi dukkhena pīḷito,
Bhikkhu ca taṁ sāmaṁ muñcitvānantakaṁ;
Ahāsi kummāsaṁ mamānukampayā,
Tato cuto kālakatomhi devatā.

Tadeva kammaṁ kusalaṁ kataṁ mayā,
Sukhañca kammaṁ anubhomi attanā;
Tayā hi bhante anukampito bhusaṁ,
Kataññutāya abhivādayāmi taṁ.

Sadevake loke samārake ca,
Añño muni natthi tayānukampako;
Tayā hi bhante anukampito bhusaṁ,
Kataññutāya abhivādayāmi taṁ.

Imasmiṁ loke parasmiṁ vā pana,
Añño munī natthi tayānukampako;
Tayā hi bhante anukampito bhusaṁ,
Kataññutāya abhivādayāmi tan”ti.

Gopālavimānaṁ chaṭṭhaṁ.
