"Ah, the field consisting of merit, devoid of all evil; the seed placed therein by me is immediately productive of fruit. (1)
How incongruous are that limited gift of mine devoid of all perfection and this house beautiful, lofty and made of gold and precious materials? (2)
How incongruous are that house of mine with only its walls remaining, the augmentor of grief, and this, white as the moon-beams free of clouds? (3)
How incongruous are that house which has openings made by rats and insects as its windows, and this, with windows of many excellent jewels? (4)
How incongruous are that house of old, pervaded by angry dogs and abounding in prickles and impurities, and this splendid one heaped up with jewels? (5)
How incongruous are that with the slough of snakes for draping cloths, and this draped with a wealth of fine cloth and variegated chowries? (6)
How incongruous are that house with heaps of white bones brought by dogs, and this decorated with discharged heaps of fragrant and excellent flowers? (7)
How incongruous are that house with its floor ever bestrewn with streams of tears of grief, and this with sandal sprinkled with water fragrant with musk? (8)
How incongruous are that house with portals burnt by flames of fire and bearing the dirt of crows, and this decorated with gold, pure jewels and garlands of pearls? (9)
How incongruous are that house protected by a broken gate with a single panel, and this covered with crystal and equipped with folded panels? (10)
How incongruous are that house of mine, a ruined lying-in chamber, long destroyed, and this adorned with turrets and pillars made of jewels? (11)
How incongruous are that quadrangle filled with the sound of lamentation, and this filled with the sound of musical instruments and notes of the lute? (12)
How incongruous are that house of old filled with heaps of dust and skulls, and this with its interior piled up with heaps of many brilliant jewels? (13)
How incongruous are that with all its pegs and connections fallen apart, and this mighty one of crystal inlaid with sapphire? (14)
How incongruous is that devoid of seats and with bricks as the only resort, and this possessed of hundreds of variegated, cloth-filled pillows? (14)
How incongruous are that bed upon the surface of the ground bestrewn with gravel, and this magnificent bed with large curtains?(16)
How incongruous are that bed of mine spread with grass upon the ground and very rough, and this now spread with cotton and very charming? (17)
How incongruous are that house with its interior filled with dogs and stinking, and this residence with its inner apartments perfumed with sweet smells? (18)
How incongruous are that house of old covered with ragged strips of cloth inside and out, and this, splendid and charming with decorations of various fine jewels? (19)
How incongruous are that trailed with hundreds of white lines of the dung of crows, and this decorated with many large garlands of pearls? (20)
How incongruous are that house with hands uplifted with cries of lamentations full of grief, and this ornamented with the raising of spotless parasols and banners? (21)
Homage be unto him the protector, the field of merit, the saviour, on account of whom, this very day, I have crossed over the ocean of poverty. (22)
Homage be unto the protector of the world, the omniscient Vipaśyin, on account of whom, this very day, I have obtained such abundance; (23)
on account of whom, this very day, I have obtained a unique mansion, like Vaijayanta, beyond imagination, and ornamented with many excellences. (24)
Having encountered that teacher, a mansion was obtained tall as the peak of Kailāsa, lofty and white as the autumn moon. (25)
This very day, having been destitute of a protector in this city and subject to the sufferings of poverty, this very day I have become pre-eminent among all those possessed of great wealth. (26)
Since the seed, as soon as planted, produced results for me this very day, who ought not to pay homage to that lord, the best in the world?" (27)
