Tava dhammaṃ suṇantassa, avadhī vacchapālako.	While I was listening to the Dhamma preached by you I was killed by a cowherd.
Muhuttaṃ cittapasādassa, iddhiṃ passa yasañca me;	A moment of mind’s clarity resulted in this power of mine that you can witness;
Ānubhāvañca me passa, vaṇṇaṃ passa jutiñca me.	My strength, my complexion and my brightness that you can behold.
Ye ca te dīghamaddhānaṃ, dhammaṃ assosuṃ gotama;	Those who have for a long period of time heard the Dhamma preached by Gotama;
Pattā te acalaṭṭhānaṃ, yattha gantvā na socare”ti.	Have attained that immovable place, gone there they do not grieve.”
