सुन्दर नयन मृगा को दीन्हे बन-बन फिरत उजारी॥
मूरख-मूरख राजे कीन्हे पंडित फिरत भिखारी॥
Meaning · English
The deer was given lovely eyes and wanders hunted from forest to forest. Fools are made kings, and the learned go begging.

हिरन को सुंदर आँखें मिलीं और वह वन-वन मारा फिरता है। मूर्खों को राजा बना दिया और विद्वान भीख माँगते घूमते हैं।
