हिंसायै किं समभवमिह क्षान्तये वा क्षमायां

किं वा तत्त्वाध्ययनमुषितं द्वन्द्विचिह्नं प्रमार्ष्टुम् ।

बन्धोर्वृत्तिं हरसि यदरे भारताक्रान्तलोभस्

तत्ते शस्त्रैरुचितमतिथेः स्वागतं भुङ्क्ष्व भोगम् ।।

Hiṃsāyai kiṃ samabhavam iha kṣāntaye vā kṣamāyāṃ

Kiṃ vā tattvā‘dhyayanam uṣitaṃ dvandvi-cihnaṃ pramārṣṭum

Bandhor vṛttiṃ harasi yad are Bhārat’ākrānta-lobhas

Tat te śastrair ucitam atitheḥ svāgataṃ bhuṅkṣva bhogam

For slaughter did I take birth here on resilient earth, or for endurance?

Or, in the study of philosophy did I take shelter, my opponent’s mark to erase?

Since you steal your sibling’s livelihood, enemy, your greed invading India,

Therefore, as a guest, your welcome with weapons is appropriate. Suffer your consequence!
