Ceitya Vandanā
Vandāmi cetiyaṃ sabbaṃ
sabba–ṭhānesu patiṭṭhitaṃ
Sārīrika–dhātu–mahābodhiṃ
buddharūpaṃ sakalaṃ sadā.
Ceitya Vandanā
Shrine Homage
Vandāmi cetiyaṃ sabbaṃ
I pay reverence to every shrine
sabba–ṭhānesu patiṭṭhitaṃ
That may stand in any place,
Sārīrika–dhātu–mahābodhiṃ
The bodily relics, the Bodhi Tree,
buddharūpaṃ sakalaṃ sadā.
And all images of the Buddha.
