Terjemahan
At Rājagaha. Standing to one side, the godling Uttara spoke this verse in the Buddha’s presence:
“This life, so very short, is led onward.
One led on to old age has no shelter.
Seeing this peril in death,
do good deeds that bring you joy.”
“This life, so very short, is led onward.
One led on to old age has no shelter.
Seeing this peril in death,
a seeker of peace would drop the world’s bait.”
