विहगः मधुकरश्च
श्रमार्जितं त्वन्मधु मिष्टमन्ये
सुखेन मर्त्याः खलु
चोरयन्ति ।
कथं न खिन्नोऽसि वदेति पक्षिणा
पृष्टः कदाचिन्मधुमक्षिका
क्वचित् ।।
मुष्णन्तु मूढाः मम किं मनुष्या
करोमि भूयो मधु लीलयाहम् ।
यावन्न मुष्टं मम कर्मदाक्ष्यं
मुष्टं न किञ्चित्
विहगेत्युवाच ।।
A rough
rendering in Sanskrit of the following:
The Bird Asked the bee:
"You Work So Hard To Make The Honey And Humans Just Take It Away,
Doesn’t it Make You Feel Bad?"
"No," Said The Bee, "Because They Will Never
Take From Me The Art Of Making It."
"You Work So Hard To Make The Honey And Humans Just Take It Away,
Doesn’t it Make You Feel Bad?"
"No," Said The Bee, "Because They Will Never
Take From Me The Art Of Making It."
