Mounaanmookah

Mounaanmookah ,pravachanapatu rvaachako jalpako vaa,

Dhrushtah paarsve bhavathi cha vasan,doorathpavya pragalbhah

Kshaanthyaabheeru,ryadi na sahathe praayasonaabhijaathah,

Sevaadharmah paramagahano yoginaamapyagamyah//47//

Poet is trying to convince us that working under a king is a tough task.
While serving kings,every thing will be seen from a different angle.you can never satisfy them in any manner.even Brahma does not know how to please a king.
If a servant is calm and does not speak,they call him dumb.if he speaks nicely,they say he is talkative and is never silent.they would complain that he has loose tongue.if he is near them,they would say that he has no proper respect for them, if you stand aloof,they would say that you are fit for nothing.if you are patient, they would say that you are meek and afraid all the time.if you argue,they would comment that you are not from a good and respectable family.
So,even saints can not work with them and make a king happy and pleasant.
