Mother and father are called "Brahma", "early teachers" and worthy of adoration,
Being compassionate towards their family of children.
Thence the wise should venerate them, pay them due honour.
Ayah dan Ibu laksana Dewa Brahma,
Ayah dan Ibu adalah Guru Awal,
Ayah dan Ibu patut dipuja,
karena penuh kasih sayang kepada anak-anak-nya.
( Sabrahmaka Sutta, Catukkanipata, Itivuttaka, Khuddaka Nikaya )
