तदस्य दुःखाद्वैराग्यं सम्बोधादवनिपते ।
समुद्भूतं कृतं कार्यं भद्रं तेऽस्तु व्रजाम्यहम् ॥
tad asya duḥkhād vairāgyaṃ saṃbodhād avanipate / samudbhūtaṃ kṛtaṃ kāryaṃ bhadraṃ te ’stu vrajāmy aham
Demikianlah, daripada dukacita—dan daripada kesedaran yang terjaga—telah timbul padanya vairāgya (ketidakmelekatan), wahai raja. Tugas telah selesai. Semoga kebaikan menyertaimu; aku berangkat pergi.
