सगरस्य पुत्रलाभः
Sagara’s Boons, Progeny, and the Rise of the Sixty Thousand
वैदर्भदुहिता राम केशिनी नाम नामत:।ज्येष्ठा सगरपत्नी सा धर्मिष्ठा सत्यवादिनी।।।।
vaidarbhaduhitā rāma keśinī nāma nāmataḥ | jyeṣṭhā sagarapatnī sā dharmiṣṭhā satyavādinī ||
ឱ ព្រះរាម! ព្រះនាងកេសិនី ជាព្រះរាជកុមារីនៃព្រះមហាក្សត្រវិទರ್ಭៈ ជាមហេសីច្បងរបស់សគរៈ; ព្រះនាងស្ថិតមាំក្នុងធម៌ និងមានពាក្យសច្ចៈមិនរអាក់រអួល។
O Rama! the daughter of the king of Vidarbha by name Kesini was Sagara's eldest wife who was righteous and truthful.
The verse links noble lineage with inner nobility: true dharma is characterized by righteous conduct and commitment to satya (truthfulness).
Viśvāmitra introduces Sagara’s first (elder) wife and describes her character qualities.
Satya—truthful speech and integrity—together with dharma-mindedness as a hallmark of Keśinī.
