Tatīyaṃ na parājaye dhanaṃ,

Catutthamatthaṃ kiṃ karissati.

Pupphāniva pilandhituṃ;

Tathā sobhanti dārakā,

Kataṃ vijaññā vijjādi,

Vayo te mā upajjhagā.

Dhīrena saha saṃvase;

Dhanācaye, kare kammaṃ,

Piyaṃ vācañca saṃvade.

Tasmārabheyya sāsanaṃ.

Yāva atthassa nipphadā;

Nipphannasobhaṇo attho,

Khantā bhiyyo na vijjati.

Sukhāvaho su-maṅgalo;

Ñunedhike tathā no hi,

Dvayena sādhu sampadā.

Yuvā balī ālasiyaṃ upeto;

A-puṇṇasaṅkappamano kusīto,

Paññāya maggaṃ alaso na vindati.

Kusīto hīna-vīriyo;

Appassuto anācāro,

Parihāyati vuḍḍhiyā.

Maṃsāni tassa vaḍḍhanti,

Paññā tassa na vaḍḍhati.

Natthi bhogā ca sippakaṃ;

Kiṃphalaṃ tassa mānussaṃ,

Dvipādaṭṭho hi so migo.

Kusīto hīna-vīriyo;

Ekāhaṃ jīvitaṃ seyyo,

Vīriyārabbhato daḷaṃ.

Kāluṭṭhāyī a-tandito;

Anuṭṭhahati kālena,

Phalaṃ tassa samijjhati.

A-laddhā yobbane dhanaṃ;

Jiṇṇakoñcāva jhāyanti,

Khīṇamaccheva pallale.

A-laddhā yobbane dhanaṃ;

Sentti cāpātikhīṇāva,

Purāṇāni anutthunaṃ.

Pābhatena vicakkhaṇo;

Samuṭṭhāpeti attānaṃ,

Aṇuṃ aggiṃva sandhamaṃ.

Na nibbindeyya paṇḍito;

Vāyāmassa phalaṃ passa,

Bhuttā ambā anītihaṃ.

Sukhaṃ yatrādhi gacchati;

Suvira tattha gacchāhi,

Mañca tattheva pāpaya.

Accantaṃ sukhamedhati;

Suvira tattha gacchāhi,

Mañca ttattheva pāpaya.

Dhītimanttassa sijjhati;

Vīriyameva kattabbaṃ,

Etaṃ buddhehi vaṇṇitaṃ.
