1. ‘‘Isisaṅghe ahaṃ pubbe, āsiṃ mātaṅgavāraṇo;

Mahesīnaṃ pasādena, padmakesaramokiriṃ.

2. ‘‘Paccekajinaseṭṭhesu, dhutarāgesu tādisu;

Tesu cittaṃ pasādetvā, kappaṃ saggamhi modahaṃ.

3. ‘‘Ekanavutito kappe, kesaraṃ okiriṃ tadā;

Duggatiṃ nābhijānāmi, buddhapūjāyidaṃ phalaṃ.

4. ‘‘Paṭisambhidā catasso, vimokkhāpi ca aṭṭhime;

Chaḷabhiññā sacchikatā, kataṃ buddhassa sāsanaṃ’’.

Itthaṃ sudaṃ āyasmā padumakesariyo thero imā gāthāyo abhāsitthāti.

Padumakesariyattherassāpadānaṃ paṭhamaṃ.
