Dhammapada 153-154

Translated by Glenn Wallis

I have coursed through the whirl
Of numerous lives
Seeking, but not finding,
The builder of the house.
Pain is birth over and over again.

Builder of the house - you are seen!
Never again will you build a house.
The rafters all broken,
The roof of the house destroyed,
The mind, free from the conditioned,
Has come to the end of cravings.
