[Kalpana Muzumdar]

कामार्थौ लिप्समानस्तु धर्ममेवादितश्चरेत् ।

न हि धर्मादपैत्यर्थः कामो वापि कदाचन ॥
kāmārthau lipsamānastu dharmamevāditaścaret |
na hi dharmādapaityarthaḥ kāmo vāpi kadācana ||

However, one who desires to obtain both desire (kāma) and material prosperity (artha) should first indeed adhere to natural law (dharma). For neither material prosperity nor desire ever deviates from natural law (ignoring dharma, there is neither kāma nor artha).
