I will go and report it to Jasoda ; 
Be good and don’t touch my band with yours ; 
Enough has been done, I will not endure any more. 
If you put your hand on my Jidr (golden garland), 
O beloved, I too shall take hold of your han’mdl (flower garland). 
I am prohibiting him, but he will not heed my prohibition. 
I shall not cease abusing you. 
I will go to Jasoda, etc.

O friend, Kandh has gone away chaffing me (I do not know) by 
what (right of) relationship 
He has taken away my clothes and climbed on the kadam tree ; 
* [This appears to allude to the custom, that only certain relations are allowed 
to chaff; thus, a younger brother can laugh with, and chaff, his elder brother’s 
wife. — E d.]
