Ramayana · Chapter 7.068

purā tretāyuge hy āsīd araṇyaṃ bahuvistaram
samantād yojanaśataṃ nirmṛgaṃ pakṣivarjitam

tasmin nirmānuṣe 'raṇye kurvāṇas tapa uttamam
aham ākramituṃ śaumya tad araṇyam upāgamam

tasya rūpam araṇyasya nirdeṣṭuṃ na śaśāka ha
phalamūlaiḥ sukhāsvādair bahurūpaiś ca pādapaiḥ

tasyāraṇyasya madhye tu saro yojanam āyatam
padmotpalasamākīrṇaṃ samatikrāntaśaivalam

tad āścaryam ivātyarthaṃ sukhāsvādam anuttamam
arajaskaṃ tathākṣobhyaṃ śrīmatpakṣigaṇāyutam

tasmin saraḥsamīpe tu mahad adbhutam āśramam
purāṇaṃ puṇyam atyarthaṃ tapasvijanavarjitam

tatrāham avasaṃ rātriṃ naidāghīṃ puruṣarṣabha
prabhāte kālyam utthāya saras tad upacakrame

athāpaśyaṃ śavaṃ tatra supuṣṭam ajaraṃ kva cit
tiṣṭhantaṃ parayā lakṣmyā tasmiṃs toyāśaye nṛpa

tam arthaṃ cintayāno 'haṃ muhūrtaṃ tatra rāghava
viṣṭhito 'smi sarastīre kiṃ nv idaṃ syād iti prabho

athāpaśyaṃ muhūrtāt tu divyam adbhutadarśanam
vimānaṃ paramodāraṃ haṃsayuktaṃ manojavam

atyarthaṃ svargiṇaṃ tatra vimāne raghunandana
upāste 'psarasāṃ vīra sahasraṃ divyabhūṣaṇam
gānti geyāni ramyāṇi vādayanti tathāparāḥ

paśyato me tadā rāma vimānād avaruhya ca
taṃ śavaṃ bhakṣayām āsa sa svargī raghunandana

tato bhuktvā yathākāmaṃ māṃsaṃ bahu ca suṣṭhu ca
avatīrya saraḥ svargī saṃspraṣṭum upacakrame

upaspṛśya yathānyāyaṃ sa svargī puruṣarṣabha
āroḍhum upacakrāma vimānavaram uttamam

tam ahaṃ devasaṃkāśam ārohantam udīkṣya vai
athāham abruvaṃ vākyaṃ tam eva puruṣarṣabha

ko bhavān devasaṃkāśa āhāraś ca vigarhitaḥ
tvayāyaṃ bhujyate saumya kiṃ karthaṃ vaktum arhasi

āścaryam īdṛśo bhāvo bhāsvaro devasaṃmataḥ
āhāro garhitaḥ saumya śrotum icchāmi tattvataḥ
