hayaṃ lakṣmaṇasaṃpannaṃ kṛṣṇasāraṃ mumoca ha
2

tato 'bhyagacchat kākutsthaḥ saha sainyena naimiṣam
3
yajñavāṭaṃ mahābāhur dṛṣṭvā paramam adbhutam
praharṣam atulaṃ lebhe śrīmān iti ca so 'bravīt
4
naimiṣe vasatas tasya sarva eva narādhipāḥ
ājagmuḥ sarvarāṣṭrebhyas tān rāmaḥ pratyapūjayat
5

sānugānāṃ naraśreṣṭho vyādideśa mahādyutiḥ
6

8

10
nānyaḥ śabdo 'bhavat tatra hayamedhe mahātmanaḥ

tāvad vānararakṣobhir dattam evābhyadṛśyata
11

13

aniśaṃ dīyamānānāṃ nāntaḥ samupadṛśyate
14
na śakrasya na somasya yamasya varuṇasya vā
īdṛśo dṛṣṭapūrvo na evam ūcus tapodhanāḥ
15

16
īdṛśo rājasiṃhasya yajñaḥ sarvaguṇānvitaḥ
saṃvatsaram atho sāgraṃ vartate na ca hīyate
