अलंबुसापि स्वर्वेश्या भूपतेः कृतवर्मणः । अयोध्यायां महापुर्यां कन्या जाता मृगावती
alaṃbusāpi svarveśyā bhūpateḥ kṛtavarmaṇaḥ | ayodhyāyāṃ mahāpuryāṃ kanyā jātā mṛgāvatī
اور اَلمبوسا، جو سُورگ کی اپسرا تھی، بھوپتی کِرت ورمن کے پاس آئی؛ ایودھیا کی عظیم نگری میں ایک بیٹی پیدا ہوئی—مِرگاوتی۔
Narrator (contextual, within Setukhaṇḍa narration)
Tirtha: Ayodhyā
Type: kshetra
Scene: Auspicious birth in Ayodhyā: palace chamber with attendants; Alambusā (celestial courtesan) subtly indicated with divine radiance; newborn Mṛgāvatī cradled; city motifs (ramparts, banners) in background.
Purāṇic accounts weave human lineage with celestial agencies, presenting birth and destiny as part of a larger dharmic order.
Ayodhyā is explicitly mentioned as the great city; while Setukhaṇḍa’s broader aim is Setu’s sanctity, this verse spotlights Ayodhyā as a revered sacred geography marker.
