Shloka 4.63.9

सम्पातेः पक्षलाभः — Sampāti Regains His Wings and Re-energizes the Search

स दृष्ट्वा स्वां तनुं पक्षैरुद्गतैररुणच्छदैः।।।।प्रहर्षमतुलं लेभे वानरांश्चेदमब्रवीत्।

sa dṛṣṭvā svāṃ tanuṃ pakṣair udgataire aruṇacchadaiḥ |

praharṣam atulaṃ lebhe vānarāṃś cedaṃ abravīt ||

Seeing his own body once more furnished with wings of reddish feathers, he was filled with boundless joy and spoke these words to the monkeys.

He experienced an unparalleled delight seeing wings with red feathers growing on his body, and said to the monkeys:

S
Sampāti
V
vānaras (monkeys/search-party)

Dharma bears fruit as renewed capacity and joy: when one turns toward service of a righteous end, strength and clarity can return.

Sampāti witnesses his wings restored and, filled with joy, prepares to address the vānaras further.

Gratitude and readiness to serve—his joy transitions immediately into communication and guidance to aid the search.
