Savitri said : The boon that you have (just) given me cannot bear fruit (without my union with my husband). Therefore, O bestower of honour, among other boons (that you have already granted me) I crave this boon that Satyavana may be brought back to life. I am as good as dead without my husband.
सावित्र्युवाच स्तथा यथान्येषु वरेषु मानद। वरं वृणे जीवतु सत्यवानयं यथा मृता ह्येवमहं पतिं विना॥
