Atthamhi jātamhi sukhā sahāyā
Tuṭṭhī sukhā yā itar'ītarena
Paññaṃ sukhaṃ jīvita-saṅkhayamhi
Sabbaso dukkhassa sukhaṃ pahānaṃ.

If an occasion arises, friends are pleasant; enjoyment is pleasant, whatever be the cause; a good work is pleasant in the hour of death; the giving up of all grief is pleasant.

Friedrich Max Müller 1881, The Dhammapada (Sacred Books of the East 10.1)
