සුඛො විවෙකො තුට‍්ඨස‍්ස සුතධම‍්මස‍්ස පස‍්සතො
අබ්‍යාපජ‍්ජං සුඛං ලොකෙ පාණභූතෙසු සංයමො.

abyāpajjaṃ sukhaṃ loke pāṇabhūtesu saṃyamo.

Seclusion is happiness for the contented
who see the teaching they have learned.
Kindness for the world is happiness
for one who’d not harm a living creature.

The additional parameter |brackets=on may be used to surround a quotation with brackets. This indicates that the quotation either contains a mere mention of a term (for example, "some people find the word manoeuvre hard to spell") rather than an actual use of it (for example, "we need to manoeuvre carefully to avoid causing upset"), or does not provide an actual instance of a term but provides information about related terms.
