गगनात् पुष्पवर्ष च पश्येदं पतितं भुवि । सुर्िंदेवगन्धर्वा ये च देवपुर:सरा:
gaganāt puṣpavarṣaṃ ca paśyedaṃ patitaṃ bhuvi | surāś ca devagandharvā ye ca devapuraḥsarāḥ ||
ເບິ່ງເຖິງ—ຝົນດອກໄມ້ນີ້ຕົກລົງຈາກຟ້າມາສູ່ພື້ນດິນ. ບັນດາເທວະ, ຄັນທະວະ (Gandharva) ຜູ້ຢູ່ສະຫວັນ, ແລະຜູ້ເທວະທີ່ເດີນນໍາໜ້າເທວະ (ຜູ້ຕິດຕາມ ແລະຜູ້ປະກາດ) ກໍມາຮ່ວມຢູ່ ເພື່ອຖວາຍກຽດແກ່ຂະນະນີ້។
श्षशुर उवाच
A shower of flowers from the sky functions as an auspicious sign: righteous or significant acts are portrayed as receiving cosmic recognition, reminding the listener that dharma is not merely social but also aligned with a larger moral order.
The speaker draws attention to a miraculous flower-rain descending to earth and notes the presence of gods and celestial beings, indicating a moment of celebration or divine endorsement within the Ashvamedhika Parva’s ritual-royal setting.
