शमेन्दुसैंहिकेयास्यं गुणपद्महिमाशनिम् ।
साम्यमेघशरत्कालमहंकारं त्यजाम्यहम् ॥ ७ ॥

śamendusaiṃhikeyāsyaṃ guṇapadmahimāśanim |
sāmyameghaśaratkālamahaṃkāraṃ tyajāmyaham || 7 ||

It overcasts the equanimity of mind as an eclipse overshadows the moon; it destroys our virtues as a frost destroys the lotus flowers; it dispels the peace of men as the autumn drives away the clouds. I must therefore get rid of this egoistic feeling.
