वृषारवाय वदते यद् उपावति चिच्चिकः । आघाटिभिर् इव धावयन्न् अरण्यानिर् महीयते ॥
vṛṣāravāya vadate yad upāvati ciccikaḥ | āghāṭibhir iva dhāvayann araṇyānir mahīyate ||
Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.
What time the grasshopper replies and swells the shrill cicada's voice, Seeming to sound with tinkling bells, the Lady of the Wood exults.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
