KN 2.27PTS: Thag 173-174
Nandaka
Translated from the Pāli by Thanissaro Bhikkhu
Just as a fine thoroughbred steed
stumbling, regains its stance,
feeling all the more urgency,
& draws its burden
undaunted.
In the same way, remember me:
consummate in vision,
a disciple of the Rightly
Self-awakened One,
the Awakened One's thoroughbred child,
his son.
