कैकेयि मामकाङ्गानि मा स्पाक्षी: पापनिश्चये। नहि त्वां द्रष्टुमिच्छामि न भार्या न च बान्धवी॥ ये च त्वामनुजीवन्ति नाहं तेषां न ते मम। केवलार्थपरां हि त्वां त्यक्तधर्मां त्यजाम्यहम्॥
kaikeyi māmakāṅgāni mā spākṣī: pāpaniścaye| nahi tvāṃ draṣṭumicchāmi na bhāryā na ca bāndhavī|| ye ca tvāmanujīvanti nāhaṃ teṣāṃ na te mama| kevalārthaparāṃ hi tvāṃ tyaktadharmāṃ tyajāmyaham||
English Meaning
O Kaikeyī, that have decided for following sin, do you not touch my person, nor do I wish to see you. You are no wife of mine, not even a maid-servant of a friend sharing his good graces. I am none to those that subsist on your favour, nor are they anything to me. I renounce you who solely seek your interest and have abandoned virtue.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
