(Said by a Woman)
S*ê'galt!imāyā! May I be happy! Do you people not speak about me! Do you speak for my happiness when speaking about me!
(Said by a Man)
May I be happy! May my legs feel light! May you people speak for my happiness! Would that you would let me alone! I bathe, and I go back into my house, and I rejoice in my eating.
