Sanskrit (Devanāgarī)
सीमन्तमिव कुर्वाणं नभसः पद्मवर्चसम् । तक्षकं पन्नगश्रेष्ठं भृशं शोकपरायणाः ॥
English Scholarly Translation
Hearing the roars of Takshaka the ministers all fled. And as they were running away, they saw the king of the snakes the wonderful serpent Takshaka, going away through the sky like a streak with the colour of the lotus. His coursing through the sky looked like the vermillion line in the middle of the dark masses of a lady's hair.
