Tawney
Say, hast thou gained this bliss by long ascetic pain,
Deer, that thou flatter'st not the rich nor feel'st their scorn,
Nor runnest here and there some trifling boon to gain,
But feed'st on tender grass, and sleep'st from eve till morn?
Telang

यद्वक्कं मुहुरीक्षसे न धनिनां ब्रूषे न चाटुं मृषा
नैषां गर्वगिर : शृणोषि न पुनः प्रत्याशया धावसि ।
काले वालतृणानि खादसि सुखं निद्रासि निद्रागमे
तन्मे ब्रूहि कुरङ्ग कुत्र भवता किं नाम तप्तं तपः ॥ ३४ ॥
