I have metta for the Virupakkha,
for the Erapatha I have metta;
I have metta for the Chabyaputta,
for the Kanhagotamaka I have metta.

I have metta for footless creatures,
for those with two feet I have metta;
I have metta for those with four feet,
for those with many feet I have metta.

May footless beings not harm me,
may no harm come to me from those with two feet;
may four-footed beings not harm me,
may no harm come to me from those with many feet.

May all beings, all living things,
all creatures, every one;
meet with good fortune,
may nothing bad come to anyone.

The Buddha is immeasurable,
the Dhamma is immeasurable,
the Sangha is immeasurable.

Finite are creeping things,
snakes, scorpions, centipedes,
spiders, lizards, and rats.

I have made a safeguard,
I have made protection,
Let the creatures retreat.

I pay homage to the Blessed One,
homage to the seven Perfectly Enlightened Ones.

virūpakkhehi me mettaṃ
mettaṃ erāpathehi me,
chabyāputtehi me mettaṃ
mettaṃ kaṇhāgotamakehi ca.

apādakehi me mettaṃ
mettaṃ dipādakehi me,
catuppadehi me mettaṃ
mettaṃ bahuppadehi me.

mā maṃ apādako hiṃsi
mā maṃ hiṃsi dipādako,
mā maṃ catuppado hiṃsi
mā maṃ hiṃsi bahuppado.

sabbe sattā sabbe pāṇā
sabbe bhūtā ca kevalā,
sabbe bhadrāni passantu
mā kañci pāpamāgamā.

appamāṇo buddho
appamāṇo dhammo
appamāṇo saṅgho,

pamāṇavantāni siriṃsapāni
ahivicchikā satapadī
uṇṇānābhi sarabū mūsikā.

katā me rakkhā
katā me parittā
paṭikkamantu bhūtāni.

so'haṃ namo bhagavato
namo sattannaṃ
sammāsambuddhānanti.
