नह्यन्यविषयस्थानां बालानां मृत्युतो भयम्। स राजञ्जीवयस्वैनं बालं मृत्युवशं गतम्॥ राजद्वारि मरिष्यामि पत्न्या सार्धमनाथवत्। ब्रह्महत्यां ततो राम समुपेत्य सुखी भव॥ भ्रातृभिः सहितो राजन्दीर्घमायुरवाप्स्यसि।

English Meaning
In other governments boys have no fear of such an untimely death. Therefore, O king confer life upon this dead child. Or else with my spouse I shall renounce my life at this gate like one having no lord. O Rāma, soiled by the sin consequent upon the destruction of a Brāhmaṇa, do you live long happily with brother.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
