prāṇa kene la-iba, tāra dravya cāhi āmi
rājā kahe — the King replied; ei bāt — this news; āmi — I; nāhi jāni — do not know; prāṇa — his life; kene — why; la-iba — should I take; tāra — his; dravya — money; cāhi āmi — I want.
The King answered in surprise, “I did not know about all this. Why should his life be taken? I only want the money from him.
