Varaha Purana 123.7: Adhyaya 123, Shloka 7
The Greatness of Fragrant Flowers and Leaves: Prabodhinī (Awakening) Observances and Seasonal Rites
गते मेघागमे काले प्रसन्नशरदाशये॥ अम्बरे विमले जाते विमले शशिमण्डले॥
gate meghāgame kāle prasannaśaradāśaye || ambare vimale jāte vimale śaśimaṇḍale
बारिश का टाइम गया। शरद का मौसम आ गया। आसमान साफ हो गया। चाँद चमक रहा था।
