[d͡ʑo̞ːɕa̠çisːɨi]

(Can we date this quote?), “Chapter 1.1”, in Helen Craig McCullough, transl., 平家物語 [The Tale of the Heike]:

The sound of the Gion Shōja bells echoes the impermanence of all things; the color of the sāla flowers reveals the truth that the prosperous must decline. The proud do not endure, they are like a dream on a spring night; the mighty fall at last, they are as dust before the wind.

祇園精舎の鐘の声、諸行無常の響き有り。沙羅双樹の花の色、盛者必衰の理を顕す。驕れる者も久しからず、唯春の夜の夢の如し。猛き者も遂には滅びぬ、偏に風の前の塵に同じ。

Gionshōsha no kane no koe, shogyō mujō no hibiki ari. Sarasōju no hana no iro, jōshahissui no kotowari o arawasu. Ogoreru mono mo hisashikarazu, tada haru no yoru no yume no gotoshi. Takeki mono mo tsui ni wa horobinu, hitoeni kaze no mae no chiri ni onaji.

[dã̠ɰ̃o̞t͡sɨ]

[dã̠ɰ̃o̞t͡ɕi]

From Old Japanese 檀越 (daniwoti) (万葉集 (Man'yōshū), 3847th poem), from Middle Chinese 檀越, from Sanskrit दानपति (dānapati, literally “lord of alms”). The earliest readings in Old Japanese were daniwoti and danawoti; danwotu was acquired later in Early Middle Japanese, with the more systematic adoption of Literary Chinese. The otsu changes to notsu as an instance of renjō (連声). See also 旦那 (danna).
