Yaśodharācarita · Verses 1-20

śrī siddhārthaḥ kapilanagare bodhisattvaḥ saputrāṃ
devīṃ tyaktvā sakalavibhavaṃ cakravartiśriyaṃ ca |
māsy āṣāḍhe viratamanasā pūrṇimāyāṃ niśīthe
niścakrāma śramaṇapadabhṛn mokṣam anveṣṭukāmaḥ

atha prabhāte śayanāt samutthitā

didṛkṣayā svāmivarasya satvaraṃ
gatāvidūre śayanīyamandiram

yathā pure vañcayituṃ sa me patī
rahogataḥ kutra cid eva gūḍhavān |
vicintya saudhe 'ntarabāhiraṃ bhṛśaṃ
parīkṣyamāṇāpi dadarśa naiva tam

dadhāva tasmāt sacivasya mandiraṃ
gavākṣam udghāṭya drutaṃ drutaṃ śucā |
kapāṭam āhatya dṛḍhaṃ muhur muhur
vyarīravac channa bhavan bhavann iti

apekṣya kiṃ cit kvaṇam antarād gṛhe

vicintya yat kiṃ cid itas tataḥ śiraś
cacāla jaghrau ca mukhe sutasya sā |
bhujātapatreṇa vilocanadvayān

pravālamālām api kuṇḍaladvayam

lalāṭikāṃ hemamayāṅgulīyakaṃ
hiraṇyasūtreṇa nibaddhamekhalām |
vimucya śīrṣābharaṇaṃ ca kaṅkaṇe
sasarja dhig dhig vadatī sasambhramam

atītaḍat pādatalena bhūtalaṃ
jajṛmbha ūrdhvaṃ vicakarṣa mūrdhajam |
jajalpa vākyaṃ vigatārtham ākulaṃ
rurāva bhīteva ruroda gadgadam

niveśya bālaṃ śayane punaḥ punaḥ
samutkṣipantī yugapat karadvayam |
vikampya śīrṣaṃ ca yathā vicetanā
jughoṣa śaśvāsa papāta vivyathe

nipīḍyamānāpi bubhukṣayāniśaṃ
na bhojanaṃ bhoktum iyeṣa kiṃ cana |
tṛṣāturā nodakabindum apy asau
papau ca kāye 'py babhūva vepathuḥ

śarīravarṇaṃ balam indriyeṣv api |
vinaśyate jīvam anukrameṇa ca
durantateyaṃ priyaviprayogatā

gatau sthitau vā śayane ca vipriyaṃ
kadā canāhaṃ na cakāra kiṃ cana

vicintayantī sahasāgatāpadaṃ

sugandhipuspair api dhūmadīpakair
apūpujad devagaṇaṃ sagauravam

bhujadvayaṃ mūrdhni niveśya śokinī
vilokya devapratimānanaśriyam |
praṇamya bhaktyā pariśuddhacetasā
yayāca devān iti viprayogataḥ
