शिखिध्वजोऽहं भूपालस्त्यक्त्वा राज्यमिहास्थितः ।
भृशं भीतोस्मि तत्त्वज्ञ संसृतौ जन्मनः पुनः ॥ १० ॥

śikhidhvajo'haṃ bhūpālastyaktvā rājyamihāsthitaḥ |
bhṛśaṃ bhītosmi tattvajña saṃsṛtau janmanaḥ punaḥ || 10 ||

I am Sikhidvaja the ruler of a country, which I have long relinquished for a seat in the forest; and know, O knower of all truths, that it is my fear of the trap-doors of the world and future transmigration in it, that has driven me to this retired wilderness.
