  • Upakāro ca yo mitto,
    sukhe dukkhe ca yo sakhā,
    atthakkhāyī ca yo mitto,

    Listen

    The friend who is a helpmate,
    the friend in happiness and woe,
    the friend who gives good counsel,
    the friend who sympathises too --
    these four as friends the wise behold
    and cherish them devotedly
    as does a mother her own child.
