taṁ dṛṣṭvā patitaṁ tatra tatas tasyātmajaṁ prabho | gṛhītvā samanupprāptā tvām adya śaraṇaiṣiṇī ||

Vaiśaṃpāyana nói: “Thấy chàng nằm gục ở đó, hỡi chúa công, ta liền bồng bế con trai của chàng và hôm nay đến trước ngươi để cầu nương tựa. Trong cơn nguy biến như thế, ta hướng về ngươi như bậc hộ trì chính đáng, bởi tìm nơi nương tựa là con đường hợp dharma của kẻ khốn cùng.”

Educational Q&A

The verse foregrounds śaraṇāgati (seeking refuge) as a dharmic response to calamity and implies the ethical duty of the powerful to protect those who come for shelter, especially when a dependent child is involved.

A woman (speaker implied by feminine forms) reports that she saw someone lying fallen, took that person’s son with her, and approached the addressed ‘lord’ to request protection and asylum.
