सुहृदि प्रेमसंपन्ने त्वय्यनुद्यं न किंचन । साधुभिः सह संवादः सर्वश्रेयोऽभिवृद्धये
suhṛdi premasaṃpanne tvayyanudyaṃ na kiṃcana | sādhubhiḥ saha saṃvādaḥ sarvaśreyo'bhivṛddhaye
പ്രേമസമ്പന്നനായ സുഹൃത്തേ, നിന്നിൽ കുറ്റപ്പെടുത്തുവാൻ ഒന്നുമില്ല. സദ്ജനങ്ങളോടുള്ള സംവാദം സർവ്വശ്രേയസ്സിന്റെ അഭിവൃദ്ധിക്കായാണ്.
