2944 “Uyyānabhūmiṃ niyyanto,

addasaṃ lokanāyakaṃ;

Vaṭaṃsakaṃ gahetvāna,

sovaṇṇaṃ sādhunimmitaṃ.

35.

2945 Sīghaṃ tato samāruyha,

hatthikkhandhagato ahaṃ;

Buddhassa abhiropesiṃ,

sikhino lokabandhuno.

36.

2946 Ekattiṃse ito kappe,

yaṃ pupphamabhiropayiṃ;

Duggatiṃ nābhijānāmi,

pupphapūjāyidaṃ phalaṃ.

37.

2947 Sattavīse ito kappe,

eko āsiṃ janādhipo;

Mahāpatāpanāmena,

cakkavattī mahabbalo.

38.

2948 Paṭisambhidā catasso,

…pe…

kataṃ buddhassa sāsanaṃ”.
