यस्तु शोचति दुःखार्त: स कथं॑ वक्तुमुत्सहेत् । रसज्ञ: सर्वदुःखस्य यथा55त्मनि तथा परे,जो दुःखसे पीड़ित होकर शोक करता है तथा जो अपने और पराये सभीके दुःखका रस जानता है, वह ऐसी बात कैसे कह सकता है?
Transliteration
yas tu śocati duḥkhārtaḥ sa kathaṁ vaktum utsahet | rasajñaḥ sarvaduḥkhasya yathātmāni tathā pare ||
Translation
But one who, stricken by sorrow, laments—how could he dare to speak in such a way? For the person who truly knows the taste and weight of every kind of suffering, whether in himself or in others, cannot lightly utter words that ignore or diminish grief.
