Nigamanakathā

Yo so sugataputtānaṃ, adhipatibhūtena hitaratinā;

Therena thiraguṇavatā, suvibhatto mahāniddeso.

Tassatthavaṇṇanā yā, pubbaṭṭhakathānayaṃ tathā;

Yuttiṃ nissāya mayāraddhā, niṭṭhānamupagatā esā.

Yaṃ puraṃ puruttamaṃ, anurādhapuravhayaṃ;

Yo tassa dakkhiṇe bhāge, mahāvihāro patiṭṭhito.

Yo tassa tilako bhūto, mahāthūpo siluccayo;

Yaṃ tassa pacchime bhāge, lekho kathikasaññito.

Kittisenoti nāmena, sajīvo rājasammato;

Sucicārittasampanno, lekho kusalakammiko.

Sītacchāyatarupetaṃ, salilāsayasampadaṃ;

Cārupākārasañcitaṃ, pariveṇamakārayi.

Upaseno mahāthero, mahāpariveṇavāsiyo;

Tassādāsi pariveṇaṃ, lekho kusalakammiko.

Vasantenettha therena, thirasīlena tādinā;

Upasenavhayena sā, katā saddhammajotikā.

Rañño sirinivāsassa, sirisaṅghassa bodhino;

Chabbīsatimhi vassamhi, niṭṭhitā niddesavaṇṇanā.

Samayaṃ anulomentī, therānaṃ theravaṃsadīpānaṃ;

Niṭṭhaṃ gatā yathāyaṃ, aṭṭhakathā lokahitajananī.

Saddhammaṃ anulomentā, attahitaṃ parahitañca sādhentā;

Niṭṭhaṃ gacchantu tathā, manorathā sabbasattānaṃ.

Saddhammappajjotikāya, aṭṭhakathāyettha gaṇitakusalehi;

Gaṇitā tu bhāṇavārā, ñeyyātirekacattārisā.

Ānuṭṭhubhena assā, chando baddhena gaṇiyamānā tu;

Atirekadasasahassa-saṅkhā gāthāti viññeyyā.

Sāsanaciraṭṭhitatthaṃ, lokahitatthañca sādarena mayā;

Puññaṃ imaṃ racayatā, yaṃ pattamanappakaṃ vipulaṃ.

Puññena tena loko, saddhammarasāyanaṃ dasabalassa;

Upabhuñjitvā vimalaṃ, pappotu sukhaṃ sukhenevāti.

Saddhammappajjotikā nāma

Cūḷaniddesa-aṭṭhakathā niṭṭhitā.
