The First Recital - 42<br />
Aggi yathā pajjalati, devatā va virocati,<br />
Just like a fire he shines forth, he is as brilliant as a god,<br />
siriyā ajahito hoti, yo mittānaṁ na dūbhati. [7]<br />
he is not abandoned by good luck, he who does no wrong to his friends.<br />
Gāvo tassa pajāyanti, khette vuttaṁ virūhati,<br />
His cows are productive for him, what is sown in his fields grows up,<br />
puttānaṁ phalam-asnāti, yo mittānaṁ na dūbhati. [8]<br />
he enjoys the boon <strong>of</strong> children, he who does no wrong to his friends.<br />
Darito pabbatāto vā, rukkhato patito naro,<br />
Whether that man has fallen from a cleft, a mountain, or a tree,<br />
cuto patiṭṭhaṁ labhati, yo mittānaṁ na dūbhati. [9]<br />
while falling, he receives support, he who does no wrong to his friends.<br />
Virūḷhamūlasantānaṁ nigrodham-iva māluto,<br />
As the wind (cannot overpower) a banyan tree which has roots well grown,<br />
amittā nappasahanti yo mittānaṁ na dūbhati. [10]<br />
(so) enemies cannot overpower he who does no wrong to his friends.
