parjanyaḥ śata-varṣāṇi
bhūmau rājan na varṣati

kṣayaṁ yāsyanti śanakaiḥ
kālenopadrutāḥ prajāḥ

WORD BY WORD



TRANSLATION

As annihilation approaches, O King, there will be no rain upon the earth for one hundred years. Drought will lead to famine, and the starving populace will literally consume one another. The inhabitants of the earth, bewildered by the force of time, will gradually be destroyed.
