Mauneya Devagandharva–Apsaras Vamsha-Kirtana

Catalogue of Mauneya Gandharvas and Apsarases

Devanagari script

सुगन्धाश्चाथ निष्पन्दा सर्वाश्चाप्सरसः समाः / संप्रयोगस्तु कामेन माद्यं दिवि हरं विना

Transliteration

sugandhāścātha niṣpandā sarvāścāpsarasaḥ samāḥ / saṃprayogastu kāmena mādyaṃ divi haraṃ vinā

Translation

Todas as apsaras são fragrantes, serenas e iguais em sua natureza divina. Porém, no céu, a união com Kāma produz embriaguez—exceto no caso de Hara (Śiva).
