अरुणो मा सकृद् वृकः पथा यन्तं ददर्श हि । उज् जिहीते निचाय्या तष्टेव पृष्ट्यामयी वित्तम् मे अस्य रोदसी ॥
aruṇo mā sakṛd vṛkaḥ pathā yantaṃ dadarśa hi | uj jihīte nicāyyā taṣṭeva pṛṣṭyāmayī vittam me asya rodasī ||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
A ruddy wolf beheld me once, as I was faring on my path. He, like a carpenter whose back is aching crouched and slunk away. Mark this my woe, ye Earth and Heaven.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
