Dhammapada · Verso 337

Pali

Taṁ vo vadāmi bhaddaṁ vo,
yāvantettha samāgatā;
Taṇhāya mūlaṁ khaṇatha,
usīratthova bīraṇaṁ;
Mā vo naḷaṁva sotova,
māro bhañji punappunaṁ.

English

I say this to you, good people,
all those who have gathered here:
dig up the root of craving,
as you’d dig up grass in search of roots.
Don’t let Māra break you again and again,
like a stream breaking a reed.
