Taking an utuḷhi flower,
I offered it to the Bodhi,
when that banyan tree had grown large,
in the golden-colored sunlight.

Within the present aeon, since
I offered a flower back then,
I’ve come to know no bad rebirth:
that’s the fruit of Bodhi-pūjā.

My defilements are now burnt up;
all new existence is destroyed.
Like elephants with broken chains,
I am living without constraint.

Being in Best Buddha’s presence
was a very good thing for me.
The three knowledges are attained;
I have done what the Buddha taught!

The four analytical modes,
and these eight deliverances,
six special knowledges mastered,
I have done what the Buddha taught!

Thus indeed Venerable Utuḷhipupphiya Thera spoke these verses.

The legend of Utuḷhipupphiya Thera is finished.
