कर्णनिधनवृत्तान्तनिवेदनम् | Reporting Karṇa’s Fall to Yudhiṣṭhira
Devanagari script
यदा मान॑ं लभते माननार्ह- स्तदा स वै जीवति जीवलोके । यदावमानं लभते महान्तं तदा जीवन्मृत इत्युच्यते सः,इस जीवजगत्में माननीय पुरुष जबतक सम्मान पाता है, तभीतक वह वास्तवमें जीवित है। जब वह महान् अपमान पाने लगता है, तब वह जीते-जी मरा हुआ कहलाता है
Transliteration
yadā mānaṁ labhate mānanārhas tadā sa vai jīvati jīvaloke | yadāvamānaṁ labhate mahāntaṁ tadā jīvanmṛta ity ucyate saḥ ||
Translation
ਵਾਯੂ ਨੇ ਕਿਹਾ— ਇਸ ਜੀਵਲੋਕ ਵਿੱਚ ਜੋ ਮਨੁੱਖ ਸਨਮਾਨ ਦੇ ਯੋਗ ਹੈ, ਜਦ ਤੱਕ ਉਹ ਸਨਮਾਨ ਪਾਂਦਾ ਹੈ ਤਦ ਤੱਕ ਉਹ ਸੱਚਮੁੱਚ ਜੀਉਂਦਾ ਹੈ। ਪਰ ਜਦੋਂ ਉਸ ਨੂੰ ਮਹਾਨ ਅਪਮਾਨ ਮਿਲਦਾ ਹੈ, ਤਦ ਉਹ ‘ਜੀਉਂਦਾ ਹੋਇਆ ਵੀ ਮਰਿਆ’ ਕਿਹਾ ਜਾਂਦਾ ਹੈ।
