ऋचीक उवाच पुत्रे नास्ति विशेषो मे पौत्रे च वरवर्णिनि । यथा त्वयोक्तं वचनं तथा भद्ठे भविष्यति,ऋचीक बोले--सुन्दरी! मेरे लिये पुत्र और पौत्रमें कोई अन्तर नहीं है। भद्रे! तुमने जैसा कहा है, वैसा ही होगा
ṛcīka uvāca | putre nāsti viśeṣo me pautre ca varavarṇini | yathā tvayoktaṃ vacanaṃ tathā bhadre bhaviṣyati ||
ရ္ဋ္စီကက ပြော၏— «အို လှပသော အရောင်အဆင်းရှိသူရေ၊ ငါ့အတွက် သားနှင့် မြေးအကြား ကွာခြားချက် မရှိ။ အို နူးညံ့သိမ်မွေ့သူ၊ သင်ပြောသကဲ့သို့ပင် အရာအားလုံး ဖြစ်လာမည်»။
ऋचीक उवाच
Educational Q&A
The verse emphasizes impartial familial regard and ethical consistency: one should not discriminate between close relations (son vs. grandson) and should honor a spoken assurance—letting one’s actions match one’s word.
R̥cīka responds to a woman he addresses respectfully, affirming that he makes no distinction between a son and a grandson and promising that her stated request or proposal will be fulfilled exactly as she has said.
