1“What’s a person’s best wealth?
What brings happiness when practiced well?
What’s the sweetest taste of all?
The one who they say has the best life: how do they live?”

The teaching brings happiness when practiced well.
Truth is the sweetest taste of all.
The one who they say has the best life lives by wisdom.”

Kiṁsu suciṇṇo sukhamāvahati;
Kiṁsu have sādutaraṁ rasānaṁ,

Dhammo suciṇṇo sukhamāvahati;
Saccaṁ have sādutaraṁ rasānaṁ,
Paññājīviṁ jīvitamāhu seṭṭhan"ti.
