काम खलु सतां वृत्ते भ्राता ते भरतः स्थितः। ज्येष्ठानुवर्ती धर्मात्मा सानुक्रोशो जितेन्द्रियः॥ किं नु चित्तं मनुष्याणामनित्यमिति मे मतम्। सतां च धर्मनित्यानां कृतशोभि च राघव॥
kāma khalu satāṃ vṛtte bhrātā te bharataḥ sthitaḥ| jyeṣṭhānuvartī dharmātmā sānukrośo jitendriyaḥ|| kiṃ nu cittaṃ manuṣyāṇāmanityamiti me matam| satāṃ ca dharmanityānāṃ kṛtaśobhi ca rāghava||
English Meaning
Even though your brother Bharata ever stayed entirely by the course of the honest; he followed his elder brother; and is righteous-souled; tenderhearted; and of subdued senses. But in my opinion, the hearts of men are inconstant, and, O Rāghava, the hearts even of the virtuous change by the action of the natural impulses.
