AVŚ 1.34.4

मधोर् अस्मि मधुतरो मदुघान् मधुमत्तरः । माम् इत् किल त्वं वनाः शाखां मधुमतीम् इव ॥४॥

madhor asmi madhutaro madughān madhumattaraḥ | mām it kila tvaṃ vanāḥ śākhāṃ madhumatīm iva ||4||

Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.

Than honey am I sweeter (mádhu), than the honey-plant more honeyed; of me verily shalt thou be fond (? van), as of a honeyed branch.

Translated by William Dwight Whitney (1905)
