न त्वां त्यजामि शबले नापि मेऽपकृतं त्वया। एष त्वां नयते राजा बलान्मत्तो महाबलः॥
na tvāṃ tyajāmi śabale nāpi me'pakṛtaṃ tvayā| eṣa tvāṃ nayate rājā balānmatto mahābalaḥ||
English Meaning
O Śabala, not that I forsake you; nor hast you done me any wrong. But this mighty king proud of his prowess has been carrying you away.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
