“O hero so lean, with antelope calves,
Of the slender hero with antelope calves,

appāhāraṁ alolupaṁ;
not greedy, eating little,
Greedless, subsisting on little food,

Sīhaṁvekacaraṁ nāgaṁ,
an elephant, wandering alone like a lion,
Wandering alone like a lion or naga,

kāmesu anapekkhinaṁ;
you’re not concerned for sensual pleasures.
Without concern for sensual pleasures:

Upasaṅkamma pucchāma,
We’ve come to ask a question:
“Having approached you, we ask a question

kathaṁ dukkhā pamuccatī”ti.
How is one released from all suffering?”
How is one released from suffering?”

“Pañca kāmaguṇā loke,
“The world has five kinds of sensual stimulation,
“Five cords of sensual pleasure in the world,

manochaṭṭhā paveditā;
and the mind is said to be the sixth.
With mind declared to be the sixth:

Ettha chandaṁ virājetvā,
When you’ve discarded desire for these,
Having expunged desire here,

evaṁ dukkhā pamuccatī”ti.
you’re released from all suffering.”
One is thus released from suffering. ”

Catucakkena navamaṁ,

eṇijaṅghena te dasāti.
