On Candabhāgā River’s bank,
I was a kinnarī back then.
I saw the Stainless Buddha there,
Self-Become, the Unconquered One.Happy, with pleasure in my heart,
awe-struck, with hands pressed together,
taking a garland made of reeds,
I worshipped the Self-Become One.Due to that karma done very well,
I went to the Thirty-Three Gods.
I was fixed in the chief queen’s place
of thirty-six kings of the gods.I was fixed in the chief queen’s place
of ten kings who were wheel-turners.
My heart being agitated,
I went forth into homelessness.My defilements are now burnt up;
existence has been slain for me.
All my defilements are destroyed;
now there will be no more rebirth.In the ninety-four aeons since
I did pūjā with that flower,
I’ve come to know no bad rebirth:
that’s the fruit of Buddha-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 Bhikkhunī Tīṇinaḷamālikā spoke these verses.
The legend of Tīṇinaḷamālikā Therī is finished.
