Ramayana · Chapter 2.088

dīrghakāloṣitas tasmin girau girivanapriyaḥ
videhyāḥ priyamākāṅkṣan svaṃ ca cittaṃ vilobhayan

atha dāśarathiś citraṃ citrakūṭam adarśayat
bhāryām amarasaṃkāśaḥ śacīm iva puraṃdaraḥ

na rājyād bhraṃśanaṃ bhadre na suhṛdbhir vinābhavaḥ
mano me bādhate dṛṣṭvā ramaṇīyam imaṃ girim

paśyemam acalaṃ bhadre nānādvijagaṇāyutam

virājante 'calendrasya deśā dhātuvibhūṣitāḥ

nānāmṛgagaṇadvīpitarakṣvṛkṣagaṇair vṛtaḥ
aduṣṭair bhāty ayaṃ śailo bahupakṣisamākulaḥ

āmrajambvasanair lodhraiḥ priyālaiḥ panasair dhavaiḥ

śailaprastheṣu ramyeṣu paśyemān kāmaharṣaṇān
kinnarān dvaṃdvaśo bhadre ramamāṇān manasvinaḥ

śākhāvasaktān khaḍgāṃś ca pravarāṇy ambarāṇi ca

jalaprapātair udbhedair niṣyandaiś ca kva cit kva cit

yadīha śarado 'nekās tvayā sārdham anindite
lakṣmaṇena ca vatsyāmi na māṃ śokaḥ pradhakṣyati
