وسقط رأسُ جَمْبَه—وعليه القُرطان—مُطاحًا: مكتظًّا ببريق تاجٍ شامخٍ متلألئ، معطّرًا بألوانٍ من الأزهار، وشَعرُه كاللهيب يلتفّ به دخانٌ متناثر.
Lomaharṣaṇa (Sūta), narrating to the sages (deduced)
Scene: Jambha’s severed head falls to the ground, still radiant with a towering crown and earrings; flower-perfume clings to it; hair flares like fire wrapped in drifting smoke, creating a terrible beauty amid battle dust.
Outer splendor and pride (ornaments, crowns) cannot protect adharma; when the time ripens, wrongdoing falls despite its display.
