अरणीमग्निकामो वा मथ्नाति हृदयं मम । वाचा दुरुक्तं देवर्षे तन्मे दहति नित्यदा
araṇīm agnikāmo vā mathnāti hṛdayaṃ mama | vācā duruktaṃ devarṣe tan me dahati nityadā ||
វាយុបានមានព្រះបន្ទូលថា៖ «ឱ ព្រះឥសី! ដូចបុរសដែលប្រាថ្នាចង់បង្កើតភ្លើង ត្រូវកិនឈើអរណី ឲ្យកើតភ្លើងដូច្នោះដែរ ពាក្យកាចរបស់ពួកគេក៏កូរច្របល់បេះដូងខ្ញុំជានិច្ច; ពាក្យអាក្រក់នោះ ដុតខ្ញុំរៀងរាល់ថ្ងៃ»។

The verse highlights the ethical weight of speech: harsh, ill-chosen words can wound as intensely as fire. It urges restraint in speaking and sensitivity to how words agitate and ‘burn’ the inner life of others.
Vāyudeva addresses a devarṣi and describes his ongoing distress: the bitter words directed at him repeatedly churn his heart like araṇi-sticks churned to produce fire, and the resulting pain feels like continual burning.
