If thou hast nothing to pay, why should he take away thy bed from under thee?

ubhe asmai piipayataH samiicii divo vRSTiM subhago naama puSyan

My root was spread out by the waters, and the dew lay all night upon my branch.

Bezer, and Hod, and Shamma, and Shilshah, and Ithran, and Beera.

tvaM raajendra ye ca devaa rakSaa nRRn paahy a\sura tvam asmaan

I am like a pelican of the wilderness: I am like an owl of the desert.

harir opashaM kRNute nabhas paya upastire camvo\r brahma nirNije

yasya made cyaavayasi pra kRSTiir yasya made apa gotraa vavartha

nota svavRSTim made asya yudhyata eko anyac cakRSe vishvam aanuSak

For except we had lingered, surely now we had returned this second time.

The crown of the wise is their riches: but the foolishness of fools is folly.

yujaM hy a\nyam akRta pravepany ud iiM gavyaM sRjate satvabhir dhuniH

Every day will I bless thee; and I will praise thy name for ever and ever.

pra samraajo asurasya prashastim puMsaH kRSTiinaam anumaadyasya

Fear came upon me, and trembling, which made all my bones to shake.

Seven times a day do I praise thee because of thy righteous judgments.

I was a father to the poor: and the cause which I knew not I searched out.
