2v.188 "A caravan is the friend of one on a journey;
A mother is the friend in one's own home;
A comrade when the need arises
Is one's friend again and again.
The deeds of merit one has done—
That is the friend in the future life."

1"Kiṁsu pavasato mittaṁ,
kiṁsu mittaṁ sake ghare;
Kiṁ mittaṁ atthajātassa,
kiṁ mittaṁ samparāyikan"ti.

2"Sattho pavasato mittaṁ,
mātā mittaṁ sake ghare;
Sahāyo atthajātassa,
hoti mittaṁ punappunaṁ;
Sayaṅkatāni puññāni,
taṁ mittaṁ samparāyikan"ti.
