Saṅgāhako mittakaro,
Vadaññū vītamaccharo,
Netā vinetā anunetā,
Tādiso labhate yasaṃ.
Who is hospitable, and friendly,
Liberal and unselfish,
A guide, an instructor, a leader,
Such a one to honour may attain.
Dīgha Nikāya 3.273
Everyman's Ethics: Four Discourses by the Buddha (WH 14),
translated by Narada Thera
