Ayoge yuñjamattānaṃ, yogasmiñca ayojayaṃ;

Atthaṃ hitvā piyaggāhī, pihetattānuyoginaṃ.

210.

Mā piyehi samāgañchi, appiyehi kudācanaṃ;

Piyānaṃ adassanaṃ dukkhaṃ, appiyānañca dassanaṃ.

211.

Tasmā piyaṃ na kayirātha, piyāpāyo hi pāpako;

Ganthā tesaṃ na vijjanti, yesaṃ natthi piyāppiyaṃ.

212.

Piyato jāyatī soko, piyato jāyatī ² bhayaṃ;

Piyato vippamuttassa, natthi soko kuto bhayaṃ.

213.

Pemato jāyatī soko, pemato jāyatī bhayaṃ;

Pemato vippamuttassa, natthi soko kuto bhayaṃ.

214.

Ratiyā jāyatī soko, ratiyā jāyatī bhayaṃ;

Ratiyā vippamuttassa, natthi soko kuto bhayaṃ.

215.

Kāmato jāyatī soko, kāmato jāyatī bhayaṃ;

Kāmato vippamuttassa, natthi soko kuto bhayaṃ.

216.

Taṇhāya jāyatī ⁴ soko, taṇhāya jāyatī bhayaṃ;

Taṇhāya vippamuttassa, natthi soko kuto bhayaṃ.

217.

Sīladassanasampannaṃ , dhammaṭṭhaṃ saccavedinaṃ;

Attano kamma kubbānaṃ, taṃ jano kurute piyaṃ.

218.

Chandajāto anakkhāte, manasā ca phuṭo siyā;

Kāmesu ca appaṭibaddhacitto ⁶, uddhaṃsototi vuccati.

219.

Cirappavāsiṃ purisaṃ, dūrato sotthimāgataṃ;

Ñātimittā suhajjā ca, abhinandanti āgataṃ.

220.

Tatheva katapuññampi, asmā lokā paraṃ gataṃ;

Puññāni paṭigaṇhanti, piyaṃ ñātīva āgataṃ.

Piyavaggo soḷasamo niṭṭhito.
