Vinayavinicchayo

Ganthārambhakathā

1. Vanditvā sirasā seṭṭhaṃ, buddhamappaṭipuggalaṃ;

Bhavābhāvakaraṃ dhammaṃ, gaṇañceva niraṅgaṇaṃ.

2. Bhikkhūnaṃ bhikkhunīnañca, hitatthāya samāhito;

Pavakkhāmi samāsena, vinayassavinicchayaṃ.

3. Anākulamasaṃkiṇṇaṃ, madhuratthapadakkamaṃ;

Paṭubhāvakaraṃ etaṃ, paramaṃ vinayakkame.

4. Apāraṃ otarantānaṃ, sāraṃ vinayasāgaraṃ;

Bhikkhūnaṃ bhikkhunīnañca, nāvābhūtaṃ manoramaṃ.

5. Tasmā vinayanūpāyaṃ, vinayassavinicchayaṃ;

Avikkhittena cittena, vadato me nibodhatha.
