Vanaropasutta  Planters

“Kesaṁ divā ca ratto ca,  “Whose merit always grows
sadā puññaṁ pavaḍḍhati;  by day and by night?
Dhammaṭṭhā sīlasampannā,  What people—firm in principle, accomplished in conduct—
ke janā saggagāmino”ti.  are going to heaven?”

“Ārāmaropā vanaropā,  “Planters of parks or groves,
ye janā setukārakā;  those who build a bridge,
Papañca udapānañca,  a drinking place and well,
ye dadanti upassayaṁ.  and those who give monastic quarters.

Tesaṁ divā ca ratto ca,  Their merit always grows
sadā puññaṁ pavaḍḍhati;  by day and by night.
Dhammaṭṭhā sīlasampannā,  Those people—firm in principle, accomplished in conduct—
te janā saggagāmino”ti.  are going to heaven.”
