Promise to give me what I ask, in this lonely place, alone, between ourselves. The son that will be here after born of me, will become the hire-apparent (to your throne). O Dushyanta, I tell you the truth. If this be the case, we may be united.
सत्यं मे प्रतिजानीहि यथा वक्ष्याम्यहं रहः। मयि जायेत यः पुत्रः स भवेत् त्वदनन्तरः॥ युवराजो महाराज सत्यमेतद् ब्रवीमि ते। यद्येतदेवं दुष्यन्त अस्तु मे सङ्गमस्त्वया॥
