“Punāparaṃ yadā homi,
indapatthe puruttame;
Rājā dhanañcayo nāma,
kusale dasahupāgato.

Kaliṅ­ga­raṭ­ṭhavi­sayā,
brāhmaṇā upagañchu maṃ;
Āyācuṃ maṃ hatthināgaṃ,
dhaññaṃ ­maṅga­la­samma­taṃ.

‘Avuṭṭhiko janapado,
dubbhikkho chātako mahā;
Dadāhi pavaraṃ nāgaṃ,
nīlaṃ añjanasavhayaṃ’.

‘Na me yācaka­manup­patte,
paṭikkhepo anucchavo;
Mā me bhijji samādānaṃ,
dassāmi vipulaṃ gajaṃ’.

Nāgaṃ gahetvā soṇḍāya,
bhiṅgāre ratanāmaye;
Jalaṃ hatthe ākiritvā,
brāhmaṇānaṃ adaṃ gajaṃ.

Tassa nāge padinnamhi,
amaccā etadabravuṃ;
‘Kiṃ nu tuyhaṃ varaṃ nāgaṃ,
yācakānaṃ padassasi.

Dhaññaṃ ­maṅga­la­sam­pannaṃ,
saṅgā­ma­vija­yuttamaṃ;
Tasmiṃ nāge padinnamhi,
kiṃ te rajjaṃ karissati’.

‘Rajjampi me dade sabbaṃ,
sarīraṃ dajjamattano;
Sabbaññutaṃ piyaṃ mayhaṃ,
tasmā nāgaṃ adāsahan’”ti.

Kururā­ja­cari­yaṃ tatiyaṃ.
