jauṃ ghara baru kula hoi anūpā। kariya bibāhu sutā anurūpā॥ na ta kanyā baru rahau kuārī। kaṃta umā mama prānapiārī॥ 2 ॥

Meaning

If the house, groom, and family line are excellent and suitable for our daughter, then arrange her marriage. Otherwise let the girl remain unmarried; I do not wish to marry her to an unworthy groom. O lord, Uma is dear to me as life itself.
