Sanskrit Original
पृच्छन्ति चात्र दातारं वदन्ति पुरुषा भुवि॥ अध्वनि क्षीणगात्राश्च पांसुपादावगुण्ठिताः। तेषामेव श्रमार्तानां यो ह्यन्नं कथयेद् बुधः॥ अन्नदातृसमः सोऽपि कीयंते नात्र संशयः।

The tired traveller, with weakened limbs and with feet besmeared with dust, asks for the name of him who gives him food. There are men who answer him by telling him the name. That wise man who informs the toil-worn travellers the name of the persons who give them food is certainly considered equal in virtue as the giver of food himself.
