Sanskrit Original

तत उत्थाय कैकेयी सर्वास्ताः प्रत्यभाषत। प्रेष्याः समुत्थिताश्चापि कैकेयीं ताः स्त्रियोऽब्रुवन्॥ प्रेक्ष्य मामनवद्यागी कश्मलोपहतामिव। स्नेहात् संवासजाद् धर्मात् सूदमेषा शुचिस्मिता॥ योद्ध्यमानं महावीर्यमियं समनुशोचति। कल्याणरूपा सैरन्ध्री बल्लवश्चापि सुन्दरः॥ स्त्रीणां चित्तं च दुर्जेयं युक्तरूपौ च मे मतौ। सैरन्ध्री प्रियसंवासान्नित्यं करुणवादिनी॥ अस्मिन् राजकुले चेमौ तुल्यकालनिवासिनौ। इति ब्रुवाणा वाक्यानि सा मां नित्यमतर्जयत्॥

Sairandhri is one of exceeding beauty and Ballava is handsome too, the heart of woman is so hard to know; and me-thinks they both are deserving of each other. Sairandhri is seen constantly lamenting for the connection with her lover and they both have entered this royal family at the same time.” Speaking such words she always scolds me.
