Sanskrit Original
कौसिक सुनहु मंद यहु बालकु। कुटिल कालबस निज कुल घालकु।। भानु बंस राकेस कलंकू। निपट निरंकुस अबुध असंकू।। काल कवलु होइहि छन माहीं। कहउँ पुकारि खोरि मोहि नाहीं।। तुम्ह हटकउ जौं चहहु उबारा। कहि प्रतापु बलु रोषु हमारा।। लखन कहेउ मुनि सुजस तुम्हारा। तुम्हहि अछत को बरनै पारा।। अपने मुँह तुम्ह आपनि करनी। बार अनेक भाँति बहु बरनी।। नहिं संतोषु त पुनि कछु कहहू। जनि रिस रोकि दुसह दुख सहहू।। बीरब्रती तुम्ह धीर अछोभा। गारी देत न पावहु सोभा।।
kausika sunahu maṃda yahu bālaku. kuṭila kālabasa nija kula ghālaku.. bhānu baṃsa rākēsa kalaṃkū. nipaṭa niraṃkusa abudha asaṃkū.. kāla kavalu hōihi chana māhīṃ. kahau pukāri khōri mōhi nāhīṃ.. tumha haṭakau jauṃ cahahu ubārā. kahi pratāpu balu rōṣu hamārā.. lakhana kahēu muni sujasa tumhārā. tumhahi achata kō baranai pārā.. apanē muha tumha āpani karanī. bāra anēka bhāomti bahu baranī.. nahiṃ saṃtōṣu ta puni kachu kahahū. jani risa rōki dusaha dukha sahahū.. bīrabratī tumha dhīra achōbhā. gārī dēta na pāvahu sōbhā..
"Listen, O Visvamitra: this boy is stupid and perverse. He is in the grip of death himself and will bring destruction on his whole family. A dark spot on the moon-like solar race, he is utterly unruly, senseless and reckless. The very next moment he shall find himself in the jaws of death; I proclaim it at the top of my voice and none should blame me for it. Forbid him if you would save him, telling him of my glory, might and fury." Said Laksmana, "Holy sir, so long as you live who else can expatiate on your bright glory ? With your own lips you have recounted your exploits in diverse ways more than once. If you are not yet satisfied, tell us something more; do not undergo a severe trial by putting any restraint upon your anger. You have assumed the role of a hero and are resolute and imperturbable; it is unbecoming of you to pour abuses.
