“Siddhatthassa bhagavato,
dvipadindassa tādino;
Nāgaseṭṭho mayā dinno,
īsādanto urūḷhavā.

Uttamatthaṃ anubhomi,
santi­pada­ma­nutta­raṃ;
Nāgadānaṃ mayā dinnaṃ,
sabba­loka­hitesino.

Catunnavutito kappe,
yaṃ nāga madadiṃ tadā;
Duggatiṃ nābhijānāmi,
nāgadānassidaṃ phalaṃ.

Aṭṭha­satta­ti­kappamhi,
soḷasāsiṃsu khattiyā;
Saman­ta­pāsā­dikā nāma,
cakkavattī mahabbalā.

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

Itthaṃ sudaṃ āyasmā hatthidāyako thero imā gāthāyo abhāsitthāti.

Hatthi­dāyakat­theras­sāpadā­naṃ paṭhamaṃ.
