त्रिशङ्कुस्वर्गारोহণम् · Trishanku’s Bodily Ascent and the New Constellations
स्वर्गोऽस्तु सशरीरस्य त्रिशङ्कोरस्य शाश्वतः ।
नक्षत्राणि च सर्वाणि मामकानि ध्रुवाण्यथ ॥२८॥
यावल्लोका धरिष्यन्ति तिष्ठन्त्वेतानि सर्वशः ।
मत्कृतानि सुरा स्सर्वे तदनुज्ञातुमर्हथ ॥२९॥
svargo'stu saśarīrasya triśaṅkorasya śāśvataḥ |

yāvallokā dhariṣyanti tiṣṭhantvetāni sarvaśaḥ |
matkṛtāni surā ssarve tadanujñātumarhatha ||29||
रिशि ने कहा, "त्रिशंकु अपना शरीर लेकर हमेशा के लिए स्वर्ग में रहेगा। मैने जो तारे बनाये हैं, वो हमेशा ऐसे ही रहेंगे। जब तक दुनिया है, वो सब अपनी जगह पे रहेंगे। देवियों, तुम भी मेरी बात मानो।"
Let this heaven be an eternal abode for Trisanku in his physical form! All these stars created by me shall endure as long as the worlds survive. O gods! it behoves of you to accord consent to this".
