Chaupai Text

सो सठु कोटिक पुरुष समेता। बसिहि कलप सत नरक निकेता॥ अहि अघ अवगुन नहिं मनि गहई। हरइ गरल दुख दारिद दहई॥ ४ ॥

Transliteration (IAST)

so saṭhu koṭika puruṣa sametā। basihi kalapa sata naraka niketā॥ ahi agha avaguna nahīṃ mani gahī। harai garala dukha dārida dahī॥ 4 ॥

Meaning

That wicked one, together with crores of men, will dwell in the abode of hell for a hundred ages. The serpent does not hold the jewel as something useful; rather, the jewel removes poison and burns away sorrow and poverty.
