50 passagesउद्गतेन च जीवामो वयं सर्वे वनौकसः । न चास्ति विभवः कश्चिन् नाशये येन ते क्षुधम् ॥
We all forest-dwellers live on what has grown forth; and there is no resource by which I can satisfy your hunger.
सहस्रं भरते कश्चिच् छतमन्यो दशापरः । मम त्व् अकृत-पुण्यस्य क्षुद्रस्यात्मापि दुर्भरः ॥
One person supports a thousand, another a hundred, and another ten; but for me, who have not made merit and am insignificant, even my own self is difficult to sustain.
एकस्याप्य् अतिथेर् अन्नं यः प्रदातुं न शक्तिमान् । तस्यानेक-परिक्लेशे गृहे किं वसतः फलम् ॥
He who is not able to give food even to a single guest—for him, dwelling in a house of many hardships, what is the benefit?
तत् तथा साधयाम्य् एतच् छरीरं दुःख-जीवितम् । यथा भूयो न वक्ष्यामि नास्तीत्य् अर्थि-समागमे ॥
Therefore I shall accomplish this in such a way: this body whose life is suffering, so that hereafter, when a petitioner comes, I shall not say, “There is nothing.”
स निनिन्दि किलात्मानं न तु तं लुब्धकं पुनः । उवाच तर्पयिष्ये त्वां मुहूर्तं प्रतिपालय ॥
He reproached himself, not that hunter again. He said, “I shall satisfy you; wait a moment.”
