Psalms of the Brethren CXLVIII: Bharata
Translated by Mrs. C. A. F. Rhys Davids (1913) · From Psalms of the Early Buddhists II: Psalms of the Brethren (1913)
Come, Nandaka, now go we unto Him
Whose blessed teaching taught us all we know;
And in the presence of the Wake, the Chief,
Let’s roar the lion’s paean of our hearts.
That quest for which the holy Sage in [love
And great] compassion bade us both go forth —
That Good supreme both you and I have won,
And every bond that hindered us is gone.
