I was born into an eminent family,
affluent and wealthy,
endowed with a beautiful complexion and figure;
Majjha’s true-born daughter.
I was sought by princes,
coveted by sons of the wealthy.
One sent a messenger to my father:
“Give me Anopamā!
However much your daughter
Anopamā weighs,
I’ll give you eight times that
in gold coin and gems.”
When I saw the Awakened One,
the world’s Elder, unsurpassed,
I paid homage at his feet,
and withdrew to one side.
Out of compassion,
Gotama taught me the Dhamma.
While sitting in that seat,
I realized the third fruit.
Then, having shaved off my hair,
I went forth to homelessness.
This is the seventh day
since my craving dried up.
