রাজার মিলনে ভিক্ষুকের দুই লোক নাশ পরলোক রহু, লোকে করে উপহাস

राजार मिलने भिक्षुकेर दुइ लोक नाश परलोक रहु, लोके करे उपहास

rājāra milane bhikṣukera dui loka nāśa paraloka rahu, loke kare upahāsa

Synonyms

rājāra milane—by meeting with a king; bhikṣukera—of the mendicant; dui loka—in two worlds; nāśa—destruction; para-loka—spiritual world; rahu—let alone; loke—in this material world; kare—do; upahāsa—joking..
