na cāhaṃ brāhmaṇaṃ brūmi yonijaṃ mattisambhavaṃ /
bhovādi nāma so hoti sa ve hoti sakiñcano, /
akiñcanaṃ anādānaṃ tam ahaṃ brūmi brāhmaṇaṃ. //
I do not call a man a Brâhmana because of his origin or of his mother. He is indeed arrogant, and he is wealthy: but the poor, who is free from all attachments, him I call indeed a Brâhmana.
