2.67

viramata budhā yoṣit-saṅgāt sukhāt kṣaṇa-bhaṅgurāt
kuruta karuṇā-maitrī-prajñā-vadhū-jana-saṅgamam |
na khalu narake hārākrāntaṃ ghana-stana-maṇḍalaṃ
śaraṇam athavā śroṇī-bimbaṃ raṇan-maṇi-mekhalam ||

Desist, wise men, from the company of women, a pleasure fragile as a moment! / Form a union with the maidens of compassion, friendliness, and wisdom. / Truly, in hell, neither the circle of firm breasts covered with pearl necklaces / nor the curve of the hips with a chiming jeweled girdle is a refuge.
