त्रीण्येव व्यसनान्यद्य कामजानि भवन्त्युत। मिथ्यावाक्यं तु परमं तस्माद् गुरुतरावुभौ॥ परदाराभिगमनं विना वैरं च रौद्रता। मिथ्यावाक्यं न ते भूतं न भविष्यति राघव ॥
trīṇyeva vyasanānyadya kāmajāni bhavantyuta| mithyāvākyaṃ tu paramaṃ tasmād gurutarāvubhau|| paradārābhigamanaṃ vinā vairaṃ ca raudratā| mithyāvākyaṃ na te bhūtaṃ na bhaviṣyati rāghava ||
English Meaning
This evil begot of desire is threefold. One prominent evil is falsehood, and both the others' are of weightier significance, association with others; wives, and vindictiveness without any (basis of) hostility. Falsehood, O Rāghava, has never been yours nor can it ever be yours (in the future).
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
