No
dear no, neither such 22divyapurushas, nor their deeds monumental,
Neither
their sacrifices, nose even their 23yasochandrikas multi-dimensional
Nor their
adherence to the word, nor demonstrating feats superhuman
Did ever get them a
minute's peace in day, nor sleep calm due to man.
Know you not, I'm both a renowned 24virapatni and 25 viramata
Wife
of the Venerated 26Panduraja and produced gems unlike any 27mata Hailed by the
worlds for uncommon 28sahana and 29nigraha by every man Emulated in and out of
Bharatha varsha as the ideal of every woman.
Be
bold to accept the truth you know that alone give life right Direction
Did
anyone of my sons-your patis enjoy carefree life sans confrontation
Haven't
they been squeezed, trampled and milled to death by misfortune?
Were they ever
free to themselves a minute to mould their own fortune ?
What
did they taste, or experience except that of inseparable sorrow?
Weren't grief,
defeat, and loss penetrating settled in their narrow?
Think
of princes-that too of Bharata's progeny living in woods and dales
To heighten
the agony as it were, living in cognate with sorrowing tales
