Aparāuttamātherīgāthā  Another Uttamā

“Ye ime satta bojjhaṅgā,  Of the seven awakening factors,
maggā nibbānapattiyā;  the path for attaining extinguishment,
Bhāvitā te mayā sabbe,  I have developed them all,
yathā buddhena desitā.  just as the Buddha taught.

Suññatassānimittassa,  I attain the meditations on emptiness
lābhinīhaṁ yadicchakaṁ;  and signlessness whenever I want.
Orasā dhītā buddhassa,  I am the Buddha’s rightful daughter,
nibbānābhiratā sadā.  always delighting in extinguishment.

Sabbe kāmā samucchinnā,  All sensual pleasures are cut off,
ye dibbā ye ca mānusā;  whether human or heavenly.
Vikkhīṇo jātisaṁsāro,  Transmigration through births is finished,
natthi dāni punabbhavo”ti.  now there’ll be no more future lives.

… Aparā uttamā therī ….
