परिष्वजस्व मां कांतां पाययस्व तवाधरम् । नाहं गंतुं समर्थास्मि स्मरबाणप्रपीडिता
pariṣvajasva māṃ kāṃtāṃ pāyayasva tavādharam | nāhaṃ gaṃtuṃ samarthāsmi smarabāṇaprapīḍitā
“اے محبوب! مجھے آغوش میں لے لو اور اپنے لبوں کا امرت مجھے پلاؤ۔ میں آگے نہیں چل سکتی—کام دیو کے تیروں سے چھلنی اور مضطرب ہوں۔”

Kāma can overpower the mind through sensory invitation; dharma praises restraint and clarity.
None is specified in this verse; it is narrative dialogue.
No ritual act is prescribed; the focus is on the psychology of desire.
