Idha nandati pecca nandati,
Katapuñño ubhayattha nandati;
“Puññaṃ me katan”ti nandati,
Bhiyyo nandati suggatiṃ gato.

The virtuous man is happy in this world, and he is happy in the next; he is happy in both. He is happy when he thinks of the good he has done; he is still more happy when going on the good path.

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