Theragāthā — Versos dos Monges Anciãos — 3.13 — Abhibhūta

1Listen up, all my relatives,
those who have gathered here:
I’ll teach you Dhamma!
Painful is birth again and again.

2Rouse yourselves, try harder!
Devote yourselves to the instructions of the Buddha!
Crush the army of death,
as an elephant a hut of reeds.

3Whoever shall meditate diligently
in this teaching and training,
giving up transmigration,
will make an end to suffering.
