Bird: a past life story 6. Sakuṇajātaka

You sky-flyers staying near the great evergreen, “Yaṁ nissitā jagatiruhaṁ vihaṅgamā, this fire is emerging! Svāyaṁ aggiṁ pamuñcati; Geese! Flee to the quarters! Disā bhajatha vakkaṅgā, The threat is born from the refuge! Jātaṁ saraṇato bhayan”ti.

Sakuṇajātakaṁ chaṭṭhaṁ.
