Untuk ketiga kalinya, ketika malam semakin larut, pada jaga terakhir malam, saat fajar menyingsing, membawa kegembiraan pada malam, Yang Mulia Ānanda bangkit dari duduknya, merapikan jubahnya di satu bahu, merangkapkan tangan menghadap Bhagavā, dan berkata:
For a third time, as the night was getting late, in the last watch of the night, as dawn stirred, bringing joy to the night, Ānanda rose from his seat, arranged his robe over one shoulder, raised his cupped palms toward the Buddha and said,
“Yang Mulia, malam telah larut. Jaga terakhir malam telah tiba, fajar menyingsing, membawa kegembiraan pada malam. Saṅgha para bhikkhu telah duduk lama.
“Sir, the night is getting late. It is the last watch of the night and dawn stirs, bringing joy to the night.
