Nāṭyaśāstra (नाट्यशास्त्र), rasa

एभिर्भावविशेषैर्मदो द्रुतं सम्प्रणाशमुपयाति ।
अभ्युदयसुखैर्वाक्यैर्यथैव शोकः क्षयं याति
ebhirbhāvaviśeṣairmado drutaṃ sampraṇāśamupayāti |
abhyudayasukhairvākyairyathaiva śokaḥ kṣayaṃ yāti

The line

By these particular states intoxication quickly goes to destruction, or by words of a happy rising, just as grief goes to destruction.

नेपालीमा

यी विशेष अवस्थाबाट मद छिटो नाश हुन्छ, अथवा सुखद उदयका वचनबाट, जसरी शोक नाश हुन्छ।

Where it sits

The verse's own likeness is grief leaving. Joyful words are one way the intoxication ends.
