उक्तश्च दुर्गमः पार:कार्याणां राक्षस त्वया। कार्याणां कर्मणा पारं यो गच्छति स बुद्धिमान्॥ स त्वमर्थस्य हीनार्थो दुरवापस्य केनचित्। वाचा व्याहृत्य जानीषे कृतार्थोऽस्मीति दुर्मते॥
uktaśca durgamaḥ pāra:kāryāṇāṃ rākṣasa tvayā| kāryāṇāṃ karmaṇā pāraṃ yo gacchati sa buddhimān|| sa tvamarthasya hīnārtho duravāpasya kenacit| vācā vyāhṛtya jānīṣe kṛtārtho'smīti durmate||
English Meaning
O Rākşasa, hard is the achievement of the task that you have mentioned. He that compass business by act is alone intelligent. He that compass business by act is alone intelligent. But you, O wicked-minded one, incompetent as you are to bring about your end, attaining your arduous aim by words only, deem yourself as crowned with success.
