6. Sakuṇajātaka Bird: a past life story

“Yaṁ nissitā jagatiruhaṁ vihaṅgamā, You sky-flyers staying near the great evergreen,

Svāyaṁ aggiṁ pamuñcati; this fire is emerging!

Disā bhajatha vakkaṅgā, Geese! Flee to the quarters!

Jātaṁ saraṇato bhayan”ti. The threat is born from the refuge!

Sakuṇajātakaṁ chaṭṭhaṁ.
