- nūtnaṁ nūtnaṁ vicinvatām
SYNONYMS
sālāvṛkāṇām — of monkeys, jackals and dogs; strīṇām ca — and of women; svairiṇīnām — especially women who are independent; sura-dviṣaḥ — O demons; sakhyāni — friendship; āhuḥ — it is said; anityāni — temporary; nūtnam — new friends; nūtnam — new friends; vicinvatām — all of whom are thinking.
TRANSLATION
O demons, as monkeys, jackals and dogs are unsteady in their sexual relationships and want newer and newer friends every day, women who live independently seek new friends daily. Friendship with such a woman is never permanent. This is the opinion of learned scholars.
