Devanagari script
अहो नाह॑मिदं कर्म कष्टं दुश्चरितं कृतम् । स्वयं दुर्बुद्धिना मोहाद् येन प्राप्तोडस्मि संशयम्,अहो! यह कुकर्म मेरे योग्य नहीं था। मुझ दुर्बुद्धिने स्वयं ही मोहवश दु:खदायक दुष्कर्म कर डाला; जिससे (गन्धर्वोका बंदी हो जानेके कारण) मेरा जीवन संदिग्ध हो गया
Translation
Alas! This harsh and wicked deed was not fit for me. I myself, through folly and delusion, committed that grievous wrongdoing; and by it my very life has fallen into doubt.
