Pubbe me Bhante kumārassa sato etad-ahosi:
Formerly, venerable Sir, when I was a boy this occurred to me:
‘Aho vata maṁ rajje abhisiñceyyun’ ti -
‘Oh, may I be anointed (King) in the Kingdom’ -
ayaṁ kho me Bhante paṭhamo assāsako ahosi, so me etarahi samiddho.
this was my first wish, venerable Sir, which has been fulfilled for me now.
‘Tassa ca me vijitaṁ Arahaṁ Sammāsambuddho okkameyyā’ ti -
‘May a Worthy One, a Perfect Sambuddha enter into my realm’ -
ayaṁ kho me Bhante dutiyo assāsako ahosi, so me etarahi samiddho.
this was my second wish, venerable Sir, which has been fulfilled for me now.
‘Tañ-cāhaṁ Bhagavantaṁ payirupāseyyan’-ti -
‘May I attend on that Gracious One’ -
ayaṁ kho me Bhante tatiyo assāsako ahosi, so me etarahi samiddho.
this was my third wish, venerable Sir, which has been fulfilled for me now.
‘So ca me Bhagavā dhammaṁ deseyyā’ ti -
‘May that Gracious One teach me the Dhamma’ -
ayaṁ kho me Bhante catuttho assāsako ahosi, so me etarahi samiddho.
this was my fourth wish, venerable Sir, which has been fulfilled for me now.
‘Tassa cāhaṁ Bhagavato Dhammaṁ ājāneyyan’-ti -
‘May I understand that Gracious One’s Dhamma’ -
ayaṁ kho me Bhante pañcamo assāsako ahosi, so me etarahi samiddho.
this was my fifth wish, venerable Sir, which has been fulfilled for me now.
Pubbe me Bhante kumārassa sato ime pañca assāsakā ahesuṁ
Formerly, venerable Sir, when I was a boy I had these five wishes
te me etarahi samiddhā.
and these I am successful in now.
Abhikkantaṁ Bhante! Abhikkantaṁ Bhante!
Excellent, venerable Sir! Excellent, venerable Sir!
Seyyathā pi Bhante nikkujjitaṁ vā ukkujjeyya,
Just as, venerable Sir, one might set upright what has been overturned,
paṭicchannaṁ vā vivareyya, mūḷhassa vā maggaṁ ācikkheyya,
or open up what has been closed, or show a path to one who is lost,
