Though he leaves me here to suffer, he
will succeed in his venture, the heroine says to her friend-maid about her lover
(the hero).
My shoulder lost its past beauty. My health
become suffer with lose of complexion.
Once King Seralatan attacked with his
large force sailing on sea; destroyed the Kadambar-Race; cut their Royal-Tree ‘Kahambu’;
and made royal-drum with the trunk of the tree. As this band music raise, the
people of my village are murmuring about my clandestine love relation with him.
He crossed the dangerous forest where elephant
raises trumpet while tiger attacking; the female tiger runs away leaving its
calf; and returns searching the calf, as mother of heroic family searching boy
in the battle field.
I hail him to succeed in his venture
of earning.
