Chapter 29
अमोघदर्शिन् मम चेत् प्रसाद॑ संतापदग्धस्य विभो प्रकुर्या: । सुतस्य सञ्जीवनमद्य मे स्यात् तव प्रसादात् सुतसड़मश्च
amoghadarśin mama cet prasādaṃ santāpadagdhasya vibho prakuryāḥ | sutasya sañjīvanam adya me syāt tava prasādāt suta-saṅgamaś ca ||
ಯೃಂಜಯನು ಹೇಳಿದನು— ಹೇ ಅಮೋಘದರ್ಶಿ ಪ್ರಭುವೇ! ಪುತ್ರಶೋಕದ ತಾಪದಿಂದ ನಾನು ದಗ್ಧನಾಗಿದ್ದೇನೆ. ನೀವು ನನ್ನ ಮೇಲೆ ಕೃಪೆ ಮಾಡಿದರೆ, ಇಂದು ನನ್ನ ಪುತ್ರನು ಪುನಃ ಜೀವಕ್ಕೆ ಬರಬಹುದು; ಮತ್ತು ನಿಮ್ಮ ಪ್ರಸಾದದಿಂದ ನನಗೆ ಮತ್ತೆ ಅವನೊಂದಿಗೆ ಮಿಲನಸೌಖ್ಯ ದೊರೆಯುವುದು।
