Sanskrit

2.321

nyāyopādhir ayaṃ yad aśru-kaṇikā muñcanti bandhu-vyaye
rāgopādhir ayaṃ tyajanti viṣayān yaj jñātayo dustyajān |
prāṇānāṃ punar utkramaḥ kim upadhis tat kena vijñāyate
devaṃ cānakadundubhiṃ daśarathaṃ cekṣvāku-vaṃśyaṃ vinā ||

That they shed drops of tears upon the loss of a relative has justice as its condition;
that kinfolk abandon objects of enjoyment difficult to abandon has affection as its condition;
but what is the condition for the departure of life-breaths? By whom can that be known
except for the divine Ānakadundubhi and Daśaratha of Ikṣvāku's lineage?
