ते यदा ज्ञानसम्पन्नास्सर्वैस्समुदिता गुणै:।।।।ह्रीमन्त: कीर्तिमन्तश्च सर्वज्ञा दीर्घदर्शिन:।तेषामेवं प्रभावानां सर्वेषां दीप्ततेजसाम्।।।।पिता दशरथो हृष्टो ब्रह्मा लोकाधिपो यथा।
te yadā jñānasampannāḥ sarvaiḥ samuditā guṇaiḥ | hrīmantaḥ kīrtimantaś ca sarvajñā dīrghadarśinaḥ ||
teṣām evaṃ prabhāvānāṃ sarveṣāṃ dīptatejasām | pitā daśaratho hṛṣṭo brahmā lokādhipo yathā ||
កាលណាព្រះរាជបុត្រទាំងនោះសម្បូរដោយប្រាជ្ញា និងពេញលេញដោយគុណធម៌ទាំងអស់—មានហិរិ (អៀនខ្មាស) មានកេរ្តិ៍ឈ្មោះ មានការយល់ដឹង និងមើលឃើញឆ្ងាយ—ព្រះបិតា ទសរថ ក៏មានព្រះហឫទ័យរីករាយចំពោះព្រះរាជបុត្រទាំងអស់ដែលមានឥទ្ធិពល និងពន្លឺតេជៈភ្លឺរលោង ដូចព្រះព្រហ្ម អធិបតីនៃលោកទាំងឡាយ ដែលរីករាយដូច្នោះ។
All his sons were enriched with knowledge and endowed with all virtues. They were modest, renowned, omniscient and far-sighted. Dasaratha rejoiced at the sight of those glorious sons with such faculties and looked like Brahma, Lord of the worlds.
Dharma is portrayed as character formed by knowledge and virtues—learning must mature into humility, reputation earned through conduct, and foresight used for righteous governance.
The narrator summarizes the princes’ cultivated qualities and shows Daśaratha’s joy in their moral and intellectual excellence.
The princes’ integrated excellence: jñāna (wisdom), hrī (modesty), kīrti (earned renown), and dīrghadarśitva (long-range discernment).
