Śatarudrīya-prabhāva and Rudra’s Supremacy (शतरुद्रीयप्रभावः)
गिरिपृष्ठेषु रम्येषु व्याहरन्तो जनप्रिया: । वहाँके रमणीय पर्वतशिखरोंपर लोगोंको प्रिय लगनेवाली बोली बोलते हुए पक्षी प्रसन्नतासे युक्त हो नाचते और कलरव करते थे
giripṛṣṭheṣu ramyeṣu vyāharanto janapriyāḥ |
Nārada dijo: En las hermosas crestas de las montañas, las aves —cuyos cantos eran gratos a la gente— gorjeaban dulcemente, se movían con alegría como en danza y colmaban las alturas de clamores resonantes, evocando la armonía de un orden natural sereno y alineado con el dharma.
