अधर्माभिभवात्कृष्ण प्रदुष्यन्ति कुलस्त्रियः।स्त्रीषु दुष्टासु वार्ष्णेय जायते वर्णसङ्करः॥

adharmābhibhavāt kṛṣhṇa praduṣhyanti kula-striyaḥ strīṣhu duṣhṭāsu vārṣhṇeya jāyate varṇa-saṅkaraḥ

O Krishna, when unrighteousness prevails, the women of the family become corrupted. O descendant of Vrishni, when women are corrupted, social disorder arises.
