Theragāthā
Verses of the Senior Monks
Chapter of the Fives
5.3. Girimānanda
The sky rains, like a beautiful song,
My little hut is roofed and pleasant,
Sheltered from the wind,
I dwell there peacefully
So rain, sky, as you please.The sky rains, like a beautiful song,
My little hut is roofed and pleasant,
Sheltered from the wind,
I dwell there, with peaceful mind:
So rain, sky, as you please.The sky rains, like a beautiful song,
My little hut is roofed and pleasant,
Sheltered from the wind,
I dwell there, free of lust:
So rain, sky, as you please.The sky rains, like a beautiful song,
My little hut is roofed and pleasant,
Sheltered from the wind,
I dwell there, free of hate:
So rain, sky, as you please.The sky rains, like a beautiful song,
My little hut is roofed and pleasant,
Sheltered from the wind,
I dwell there, free of delusion:
So rain, sky, as you please.
