अपूर्वो भाति भारत्याः काव्यामृतफले रसः |
चर्वणे सर्व सामान्ये स्वादुवित्केवलं कविः ||
Apoorva bhaati Bhaaratyaah kaavyaamrutaphale rasah.
charvane sarva saamaanye swaaduvitkevalam kavih.
Apoorvo = unique, novel. Bhaati = appears. Bhaaratyaa = dramatic recitation of Sanskrit poetry.
Kaavyaamrutaphale = Kavya + Amruta +phale. Kaavya = poetry. Amruta = nectar. Phala = fruit. Rashh = juice, flavour. Charvane = chewing. Sarva = all Saamaanya = ordinary. Swaaduvitkevalam =Swaaduvit +kevalam. swaaduvit == tasty. kevalam = only to. Kavih = poets.
i.e. The joy of participating in a dramatic recitation of Sanskrit poetry is akin to chewing a fruit, the taste and juice of which can only be appreciated by a poet and not by ordinary people.
( In this Subhashit the poet has compared the Sanskrit poetry to a juicy fruit (like a mango) and its contents to the juice of the fruit, which ,ordinary people will treat as ordinary chewing of the fruit, but only a poet will enjoy the subject matter of the poetry (kaavyaamruta) and savour it like the fabulous 'Amrita', the nector of the Gods.)
