Devanagari script

सोऽप्यजगरतां त्यक्त्वा पुनः स्वर्गं गमिष्यति । अश्वमेधे कृते भर्त्रा सह यासि पुनर्दिवि । प्राप्स्यसे वर दानेन ममानेन सुलोचने

Transliteration

so'pyajagaratāṃ tyaktvā punaḥ svargaṃ gamiṣyati | aśvamedhe kṛte bhartrā saha yāsi punardivi | prāpsyase vara dānena mamānena sulocane

Translation

അവനും അജഗരാവസ്ഥ ഉപേക്ഷിച്ച് വീണ്ടും സ്വർഗ്ഗത്തിലേക്ക് പോകും. നിന്റെ ഭർത്താവ് അശ്വമേധയാഗം ചെയ്താൽ നീയും അവനോടൊപ്പം വീണ്ടും ദിവ്യലോകത്തിലേക്ക് പോകും. ഹേ സുലോചനേ! എന്റെ ഈ വരദാനത്താൽ നീ അത് നിർഭാഗ്യമായി നേടും.
