kusuma-sukumāra-tanum atanu-śara-līlayā /  
srak api hṛdi hanti mām ativiṣama-śilayā //  
yāmi he kam iha śaraṇam sakhī-jana-vacana-vañcitā //

> Through the sport of the arrows of the Bodiless One, even a garland on my heart / strikes me, whose body is tender as a flower, like an exceedingly cruel rock! / To whom can I go here for refuge, deceived by the words of my confidantes?
