Whoever wishes to do afterwards 
what they should have done before 
has lost the causes for happiness, 
and afterwards they’re tormented by regrets. 

You should only say what you would do; 
you shouldn’t say what you wouldn’t do. 
The wise will recognize 
one who talks without doing. 

Oh! Extinguishment is so very blissful, 
as taught by the fully awakened Buddha: 
sorrowless, stainless, secure, 
where suffering all ceases.
