Ramayana · Chapter 7.069

bhuktvā tu bhāṣitaṃ vākyaṃ mama rāma śubhākṣaram
prāñjaliḥ pratyuvācedaṃ sa svargī raghunandana

śṛṇu brahman yathāvṛttaṃ mamaitat sukhaduḥkhayoḥ
duratikramaṇīyaṃ hi yathā pṛcchasi māṃ dvija

purā vaidarbhako rājā pitā mama mahāyaśāḥ
sudeva iti vikhyātas triṣu lokeṣu vīryavān

tasya putradvayaṃ brahman dvābhyāṃ strībhyām ajāyata
ahaṃ śveta iti khyāto yavīyān suratho 'bhavat

tataḥ pitari svaryāte paurā mām abhyaṣecayan
tatrāhaṃ kṛtavān rājyaṃ dharmeṇa susamāhitaḥ

evaṃ varṣasahasrāṇi samatītāni suvrata
rājyaṃ kārayato brahman prajā dharmeṇa rakṣataḥ

so 'haṃ nimitte kasmiṃś cid vijñātāyur dvijottama
kāladharmaṃ hṛdi nyasya tato vanam upāgamam

so 'haṃ vanam idaṃ durgaṃ mṛgapakṣivivarjitam
tapaś cartuṃ praviṣṭo 'smi samīpe sarasaḥ śubhe

bhrātaraṃ surathaṃ rājye abhiṣicya narādhipam
idaṃ saraḥ samāsādya tapas taptaṃ mayā ciram

so 'haṃ varṣasahasrāṇi tapas trīṇi mahāmune
taptvā suduṣkaraṃ prāpto brahmalokam anuttamam

tato māṃ svargasaṃsthaṃ vai kṣutpipāse dvijottama
bādhete paramodāra tato 'haṃ vyathitendriyaḥ

gatvā tribhuvaṇaśreṣṭhaṃ pitāmaham uvāca ha
bhagavan brahmaloko 'yaṃ kṣutpipāsāvivarjitaḥ

kasyeyaṃ karmaṇaḥ prāptiḥ kṣutpipāsāvaśo 'smi yat
āhāraḥ kaś ca me deva tan me brūhi pitāmaha

pitāmahas tu mām āha tavāhāraḥ sudevaja
svādūni svāni māṃsāni tāni bhakṣaya nityaśaḥ

svaśarīraṃ tvayā puṣṭaṃ kurvatā tapa uttamam
anuptaṃ rohate śveta na kadā cin mahāmate

dattaṃ na te 'sti sūkṣmo 'pi vane sattvaniṣevite
tena svargagato vatsa bādhyase kṣutpipāsayā

sa tvaṃ supuṣṭam āhāraiḥ svaśarīram anuttamam

yadā tu tad vanaṃ śveta agastyaḥ sumahān ṛṣiḥ

sa hi tārayituṃ saumya śaktaḥ suragaṇān api
kiṃ punas tvāṃ mahābāho kṣutpipāsāvaśaṃ gatam

so 'haṃ bhagavataḥ śrutvā devadevasya niścayam
āhāraṃ garhitaṃ kurmi svaśarīraṃ dvijottama

bahūn varṣagaṇān brahman bhujyamānam idaṃ mayā

tasyāhaṃ svargiṇo vākyaṃ śrutvā duḥkhasamanvitam
tāraṇāyopajagrāha tad ābharaṇam uttamam

mayā pratigṛhīte tu tasminn ābharaṇe śubhe
mānuṣaḥ pūrvako deho rājarṣeḥ sa nanāśa ha

pranaṣṭe tu śarīre 'sau rājarṣiḥ parayā mudā
tṛptaḥ pramudito rājā jagāma tridivaṃ punaḥ

tenedaṃ śakratulyena divyam ābharaṇaṃ mama
