Skanda Purana — Nagara Khanda, Shloka 73
यंयं पश्यामि तत्राहं भ्रममाणो महावने । वृक्षं वा प्राणिनो वापि तंतं पृच्छामि मोहतः
yaṃyaṃ paśyāmi tatrāhaṃ bhramamāṇo mahāvane | vṛkṣaṃ vā prāṇino vāpi taṃtaṃ pṛcchāmi mohataḥ
اس عظیم جنگل میں بھٹکتے ہوئے، جسے بھی میں دیکھتا—درخت ہو یا کوئی جاندار—اپنی حیرت و فریب میں میں ہر ایک سے پوچھتا پھرتا تھا۔
