Te dhanyaah punyabhaajaste taisteernh keshhasaagarah.
jagatsammohinee yairaashaasheevishee jitaa.
Te = those people. Dhanyaah = blessed, fortunate. Punyabhaajaste = Punya + bhaaj+ te.
Punya =moral or religious merit. (According ti Hindu religion if a person leads a virtuous life, helps the needy persons and does other social work, he earns certain plus points called 'Punya', which place him in a better position in his next life or even during his present life.) Bhaaj = enjoyer,recipient. Punyabhaaj = recipient of punya. Te/ Taih = they. Taisteernam = Taih+teernam Treenam = cross , escape. Kleshsaagarh = Klesh + saagarah. Klesh = hardships, suffering, misery. Sagarh = sea, ocean. Jagatdsammohinee = Jagat +sammohinee. Jagat = this world. Sammohinee = fascinating, enchantress . Yairaashaasheevishee = Yaih + aashaa +ahi +vishee. Yai =whosoevr. Aasha = hope, expectation. Ahi= snake. Vishi = poisonous, Jitaa = conquered.
i.e. Blessed and earner of 'Punya" are those persons, who are able to cross the ocean of hardships and miseries by conquering and overpowering 'Aasha', the enchantress of this World, who is very dangerous like a poisonous snake.
(Through this Subhashit the author tries to emphasise the fact that only those persons are able to cross the sea of miseries in this world, who have overpowered their desire for more and more luxuries of life and lead a virtuous life. He has compared the desires to a poisonous snake ,who has enchanted the whole world
by her power to sway the minds of people. This may appear to be a bit exaggerating to some readers, but there are subhashits which emphasise to maintain a balance between desires and excessive desires, the latter being very harmful. Otherwise, desires are the driving force behind all human activities. I will conclude this series of Subhashits titled "Trushna" by a Subhashit, which exhorts people to keep a proper check on their desires.)
