Chaupai Text
नहिं संतोषु त पुनि कछु कहहू। जनि रिस रोकि दुसह दुख सहहू॥ बीरब्रती तुम्ह धीर अछोभा। गारी देत न पावहु सोभा॥ ४ ॥
Transliteration (IAST)
nahiṃ saṃtoṣu ta puni kacha kahahū। jani risa roki dusaha dukha sahahū॥ bīrabratī tumha dhīra achobhā। gārī deta na pāvahu sobhā॥ 4 ॥
Meaning
If you are still not satisfied, then say whatever you wish. Do not suppress your anger and suffer unbearable pain. You are one who has taken up the vow of heroism, steadfast and unshaken. It does not befit you to use abusive words.
