ततोऽहं सत्वरं गत्वा दृष्ट्वा तां पतितां भुवि । विलापान्कृतवान्दीनो रुदितं करुणस्वरम्
tato'haṃ satvaraṃ gatvā dṛṣṭvā tāṃ patitāṃ bhuvi | vilāpānkṛtavāndīno ruditaṃ karuṇasvaram
تب میں فوراً وہاں دوڑا گیا؛ اسے زمین پر گرا ہوا دیکھ کر میں بے بس ہو کر نوحہ کرنے لگا اور درد بھرے، رحم آلود لہجے میں رو پڑا۔
