“Āpāṭaliṃ ahaṃ pupphaṃ,
ujjhitaṃ sumahāpathe;
Thūpamhi abhiropesiṃ,
sikhino lokabandhuno.

Ekattiṃse ito kappe,
yaṃ kammamakariṃ tadā;
Duggatiṃ nābhijānāmi,
thūpapūjāyidaṃ phalaṃ.

Ito pannarase kappe,
bhūmiyo nāma khattiyo;
Satta­ratana­sam­panno,
cakkavattī mahabbalo.

Paṭisambhidā catasso,
vimokkhāpi ca aṭṭhime;
Chaḷabhiññā sacchikatā,
kataṃ buddhassa sāsanaṃ”.

Itthaṃ sudaṃ āyasmā nāgasamālo thero imā gāthāyo abhāsitthāti.

Nāga­samālat­theras­sāpadā­naṃ paṭhamaṃ.
