The spelling is a bit odd in places and so is the grammar. The first line is
somewhat problematic: One would expect braahmane vedaguu and sabbadhamme.
The verse appears to say: I praise braahamanas, knowledgeable (persons and)
all dhammas, may they protect me. Hail to the Buddhas! Hail to
enlightenment! Hail to those who are liberated! Hail to liberation!
With some reservations concerning the first line,
Regards
Ole Pind

Emne: Re: [Pali] Unknown passage in South-Asian script
Dear Mr. Ong
It is a pali verse, written in Sinhalese. This is the tramslation to Roman
characters. m = m dot below
Ye bhaahmano vedagu sabbha dhamme
Te me namo teva mam paalayantu
Namatthu Buddhaanam namatthu bodhiyaa
Namo vimuktaanam namo vimuktiyaa

Dear friends,
I was asked by a friend to translate into English an unknown passage
in a script, which I think is South-Asian. I was told it is a Pali
verse.
The passage is available online:
http://www.tipitaka
<
http://www.tipitaka.net/unknown.bmp> .net/unknown.bmp
I would appreciate if anyone can help, either to translate the passage
in English, or transliterate it into Roman Velthuis characters. Thank
you.
metta,
Yong Peng.
