Devanagari script

“तुम सुपात्र व्यक्तियोंको धनका दान दे लो, अपनी इच्छाके अनुसार पुत्र पैदा कर लो तथा अपने प्रेमीजनोंका प्रिय कार्य सिद्ध कर लो; क्योंकि राजा युधिष्ठिर अब तुमलोगोंपर विजय पानेके लिये उतावले हो रहे हैं

Transliteration

tvaṁ supātra-vyaktibhyo dhanasya dānaṁ kuru, svēcchayā putrān janaya, tathā ca sva-priyajanānāṁ priya-kāryaṁ sādhaya; yato rājā yudhiṣṭhira idānīṁ yuṣmān jetum utkaṇṭhitaḥ.

Translation

వాయుదేవుడు పలికెను— యోగ్యులైన పాత్రులకు ధనదానం చేయుడి, మీ ఇష్టానుసారంగా పుత్రులను పొందుడి, మీ ప్రియుల ప్రియకార్యాలను సిద్ధపరచుడి; ఎందుకంటే రాజు యుధిష్ఠిరుడు ఇప్పుడు మీపై విజయం సాధించుటకు ఆతురుడై ఉన్నాడు।
