The Hundred Verses of Amaru 1.214

1.214

prasthānaṃ valayaiḥ kṛtaṃ priyasakhairajasraṃ gataṃ
dhṛtyā na kṣaṇamāsitaṃ vyavasitaṃ cittena gantuṃ puraḥ |
gantuṃ niścitacetasi priyatame sarve samaṃ prasthitā
gantavye sati jīvitapriyasuhṛtsārthaḥ kimu tyajyate ||31||(35)

A departure was made by my bracelets; tears flowed incessantly;
endurance did not tarry for an instant; my heart resolved to go on ahead.
When the most beloved fixed his mind on going, all set out together;
if one must depart, is the caravan of friends dear as life to be abandoned? ||31||(35)
