Tara’s Counsel to Vali on Sugriva’s Roar and Rama’s Alliance
साधु क्रोधमिमं वीर नदीवेगमिवागतम्।शयनादुत्थितः काल्यं त्यज भुक्तामिव स्रजम्।।
sādhu krodham imaṃ vīra nadī-vegam ivāgatam | śayanād utthitaḥ kālyaṃ tyaja bhuktām iva srajam ||
“Hỡi dũng sĩ, cơn giận này dâng lên như dòng sông lũ. Dẫu vừa thức dậy mà nó tự nhiên khởi, hãy buông bỏ đi—như người trí bỏ vòng hoa đã dùng.”
'O valiant Vali! anger has overtaken you like the flood of a river. It is natural for you to be angry at this time, but shake off your anger just as the wise discard a flower garland already used up.
