पते वसंत-मासे रिद्धि पावंति सयल-वणराई । जं न करीरे पत्तं ता किं दोसो वसंतस्स ! ॥ ६२॥
प्राप्त वसन्तमासे ऋद्धिं प्राप्नुवन्ति सकलवनराजयः । यन्न करीरे पत्र तत् किं दोषो वसन्तस्य ? ॥ ६२ ॥
On the approach of spring, the whole vegetable kingdom acquires wealth (of leaves, flowers &c); if leaves do not appear in the shoot of a Karir tree; is it the fault of spring ? (Karir-Lat. Cappan's sphylla Rox, a thorny plant, growing in a desert and fed upon by Camels.)
वाएण बलेण परक्कमेण मंतोसहाइजुत्तीहि । विउसेहिवि कविहिवि य न * तीरए अन्नहा का॥६३ ॥
वादेन बलेन पराक्रमेण मन्त्रौषधादियुक्तिभिः । विद्वद्भिरपि कविभिरपि च न शक्यतेऽन्यथाकर्तुम् ॥ ६॥
The inevitable cannot be warded off by controversial discussions, strength, prowess, incantatives, medicines or arguments or by the learped or by poets (by the charm of their poetry) i.e. anything contrary to fate can not be done.
