Sanskrit Original
यैर्व्याप्ता पृथिवी कृत्स्ना सूर्यस्येव गभस्तिभिः। धन्यः प्रजावा नायुष्मान्कीर्त्तिमांश्च भवेन्नरः।।
yairvyāptā pṛthivī kṛtsnā sūryasyeva gabhastibhiḥ| dhanyaḥ prajāvā nāyuṣmānkīrttimāṃśca bhavennaraḥ||
The Subjects said: After saying thus that saintly king went to the forest along with his wives. After performing a penance on the peak Bhṛgutuṅga, and after observing the holy vow of sages, that king of great fame attained heaven. These five lines of kings belonging to his family are meritorious. They are honoured by the Devas and sages. The entire Earth is pervaded by them as with the rays of the sun. The man who reads or listens to Yayāti’s life story in full shall become blessed and is blest with progeny, long life and fame, O excellent Brāhmaṇas.
