इतीव शीत-द्युतिर् आत्म-बिम्बं निर्माय निर्माय पुनर् भिनत्ति ॥ १९६

Tasya mukhasyayatalochanayah kartum na shaktah sadrusham
priyayah ।
Itiva shitadyutir atma bimbam nirmaya nirmaya punar
bhinati ॥
The moon tries every
month in vain to paint a picture of your face;
And, having failed to catch its grace, destroys the work, and starts again.

काचं मणिं
काञ्चनमेकसूत्रे मुग्धा निब्ध्नन्ति किमत्र चित्रम् ।
विचारवान्
पाणिनिरेकसूत्रे श्वानं युवानं मघवानमाह ॥ १९७
Kacham manim kanchanamekasutre mugdha nibdhnanti kimatra
chitram ।
Vicharavan paninirekasutre shvanam yuvanam maghvanamaha ॥
What is strange about innocent women tying
glass, beads and gold on the same thread? Thinker, grammarian Panini included a
dog, youth and Indra in the same thread(this is a pun on the word Sutra which
means thread as well as a formula)
बालस्यापि रवेः
पादाः पतन्त्युपरि भूभ्रृताम् ।
तेजसा सह
जातानां वयः कुत्रोपयुज्यते ॥ १९८
Balasyapi raveh padah patanyupari bhubhrutam ।
Tejasa sa jatanam vayah kutropayujyate ॥
Even feet of the young sun can fall on top
of the mountains.
For those born with brilliance what does
age matter?
अतिपरिचयादवज्ञा
सन्ततगमनादनादरो भवति ।
मलये
भिल्लपुरन्ध्री चन्दनतरुकाष्ठमिन्धनं कुरुते ॥ १९९
Atiparichayadavajna santatagamanadanadaro bhavati ।
Malaye bhillpurandhrI chandanatarukashtthamindhanam

Familiarity breeds contempt. On mountains
were sandalwood is abundant, wives of Bhillas use it as firewood.
सर्वत्र देशे
गुणवान् शोभते प्रथितः नरः ।
मणिः शीर्शे गले
बाहौ यत्र कुत्र अपि शोभते ॥ २००
Sarvatra deshe gunavan shobhate prathitah
narah ।
Manih shirshe gale bahau yatra kutra api
shobhate ॥
A person with good qualities will shine all
over the country. Just as a jewel does worn on the head, neck or shoulders.
