Shloka 12
Devanagari script
न हि पक्षवता न्याय्यं निःस्नेहेन सुहृज्जने । पीड्यमान उपद्रष्टूं शक्तेनात्मा कथंचन,“जो सहायकोंसे सम्पन्न और शक्तिशाली है” वह मुझ-जैसे अपने सुहृद् व्यक्तिपर स्नेह नहीं रखे और अपने आत्मीय जनको पीड़ित देखकर उसकी उपेक्षा करे, यह किसी प्रकार उचित नहीं कहा जा सकता
Translation
“It is not right that one who has allies and strength should be without affection for a close friend, and, seeing one’s own kin oppressed, be able to stand by as a mere onlooker. In no way can that be called just.”
