41. saṃbhoghasnehacāturyaiḥ hāvalāsyaiḥ manoharaiḥ
rājānam ramayāmāsa yathā reme tathā eva saḥ
41. With captivating skills in love and affection, and with charming coquettish gestures and playful acts, she delighted the king, and he, in turn, was equally delighted.
स राजा रतिसक्तत्वादुत्तमस्त्रीगुणैर्हृतः ।
संवत्सरानृतून्मासान्न बुबोध बहून्गतान् ॥४२॥
42. sa rājā ratisaktatvāduttamastrīguṇairhṛtaḥ ,

42. sa rājā ratisaktatvāt uttamastrīguṇaiḥ hṛtaḥ
saṃvatsarān ṛtūn māsān na bubodha bahūn gatān
42. That king, captivated by the excellent qualities of the woman and deeply engrossed in love, did not realize the many years, seasons, and months that had passed.
रममाणस्तया सार्धं यथाकामं जनेश्वरः ।
अष्टावजनयत्पुत्रांस्तस्याममरवर्णिनः ॥४३॥
43. ramamāṇastayā sārdhaṁ yathākāmaṁ janeśvaraḥ ,

43. ramamāṇaḥ tayā sārdham yathākāmam janeśvaraḥ
aṣṭau ajanayat putrān tasyām amaravarṇinaḥ
43. The king, enjoying with her as he wished, begot eight sons from her, who possessed divine beauty.
जातं जातं च सा पुत्रं क्षिपत्यम्भसि भारत ।
प्रीणामि त्वाहमित्युक्त्वा गङ्गास्रोतस्यमज्जयत् ॥४४॥
44. jātaṁ jātaṁ ca sā putraṁ kṣipatyambhasi bhārata ,

44. jātam jātam ca sā putram kṣipati ambhasi bhārata
prīṇāmi tvā aham iti uktvā gaṅgā-srotasi amajjayat
44. And she, O Bhārata, each child that was born, would throw into the water. Saying 'I please you,' she would immerse it in the current of the Gaṅgā.
तस्य तन्न प्रियं राज्ञः शंतनोरभवत्तदा ।
न च तां किंचनोवाच त्यागाद्भीतो महीपतिः ॥४५॥
45. tasya tanna priyaṁ rājñaḥ śaṁtanorabhavattadā ,

45. tasya tat na priyam rājñaḥ śaṃtanoḥ abhavat tadā
na ca tām kiṃcana uvāca tyāgāt bhītaḥ mahīpatiḥ
45. That act was not pleasing to King Śaṃtanu at that time. And the king, fearing her departure, said nothing at all to her.
अथ तामष्टमे पुत्रे जाते प्रहसितामिव ।
उवाच राजा दुःखार्तः परीप्सन्पुत्रमात्मनः ॥४६॥
46. atha tāmaṣṭame putre jāte prahasitāmiva ,

46. atha tām aṣṭame putre jāte prahasitām iva
uvāca rājā duḥkhārtaḥ parīpsan putram ātmanaḥ
46. Then, when the eighth son was born and she appeared to be laughing, the king, greatly distressed, spoke to her, wishing to save his own son.
मा वधीः कासि कस्यासि किं हिंससि सुतानिति ।
पुत्रघ्नि सुमहत्पापं मा प्रापस्तिष्ठ गर्हिते ॥४७॥
47. mā vadhīḥ kāsi kasyāsi kiṁ hiṁsasi sutāniti ,

47. mā vadhīḥ kā asi kasya asi kim hiṃsasi sutān iti
putra-ghni sumahat pāpam mā prāpaḥ tiṣṭha garhite
47. 'Do not kill! Who are you? Whose are you? Why do you harm your sons?' (he said). 'O killer of sons, do not incur such a great sin! Stop, you hateful woman!'
स्त्र्युवाच ।
पुत्रकाम न ते हन्मि पुत्रं पुत्रवतां वर ।
जीर्णस्तु मम वासोऽयं यथा स समयः कृतः ॥४८॥
48. stryuvāca ,

48. strī uvāca putra-kāma na te hanmi putram putra-vatām
vara jīrṇaḥ tu mama vāsaḥ ayam yathā sa samayaḥ kṛtaḥ
48. The woman said: 'O you who desire a son, I will not kill this son of yours, O best among those with sons. But this stay of mine is now at its end, as that condition (we made) has been fulfilled.'
अहं गङ्गा जह्नुसुता महर्षिगणसेविता ।

49. ahaṁ gaṅgā jahnusutā maharṣigaṇasevitā ,

49. aham gaṅgā jahnusutā maharṣigaṇasevitā
devakāryārthasiddhyartham uṣiṭā aham tvayā saha
49. I am Ganga, the daughter of Jahnu, revered by groups of great sages. For the purpose of accomplishing the work of the gods, I have resided with you.
अष्टेमे वसवो देवा महाभागा महौजसः ।
वसिष्ठशापदोषेण मानुषत्वमुपागताः ॥५०॥
50. aṣṭeme vasavo devā mahābhāgā mahaujasaḥ ,
vasiṣṭhaśāpadoṣeṇa mānuṣatvamupāgatāḥ.
50. aṣṭau ime vasavaḥ devāḥ mahābhāgāḥ mahaujasas
vasiṣṭhaśāpadoṣeṇa mānuṣatvam upāgatāḥ
50. These eight Vasu gods, who are greatly fortunate and immensely powerful, have attained human existence due to the consequence of Vasiṣṭha's curse.
तेषां जनयिता नान्यस्त्वदृते भुवि विद्यते ।
मद्विधा मानुषी धात्री न चैवास्तीह काचन ॥५१॥
51. teṣāṁ janayitā nānyastvadṛte bhuvi vidyate ,

51. teṣām janayitā na anyaḥ tvat ṛte bhuvi vidyate
mat vidhā mānuṣī dhātrī na ca eva asti iha kācana
51. No one else on earth except you can be their father (begetter). Nor is there any human mother like me here.
तस्मात्तज्जननीहेतोर्मानुषत्वमुपागता ।
जनयित्वा वसूनष्टौ जिता लोकास्त्वयाक्षयाः ॥५२॥
52. tasmāttajjananīhetormānuṣatvamupāgatā ,
janayitvā vasūnaṣṭau jitā lokāstvayākṣayāḥ.
52. tasmāt tat jananī hetoḥ mānuṣatvam upāgatā
janayitvā vasūn aṣṭau jitāḥ lokāḥ tvayā akṣayāḥ
52. Therefore, for the sake of being their mother, I have assumed human form. By begetting the eight Vasus, imperishable worlds will be conquered by you.
देवानां समयस्त्वेष वसूनां संश्रुतो मया ।
जातं जातं मोक्षयिष्ये जन्मतो मानुषादिति ॥५३॥
53. devānāṁ samayastveṣa vasūnāṁ saṁśruto mayā ,
jātaṁ jātaṁ mokṣayiṣye janmato mānuṣāditi.
53. devānām samayaḥ tu eṣaḥ vasūnām saṁśrutaḥ mayā
jātam jātam mokṣayiṣye janmataḥ mānuṣāt iti
53. This is the agreement of the gods concerning the Vasus, which I have promised. I will release each one as soon as he is born from human existence.
तत्ते शापाद्विनिर्मुक्ता आपवस्य महात्मनः ।
स्वस्ति तेऽस्तु गमिष्यामि पुत्रं पाहि महाव्रतम् ॥५४॥
54. tatte śāpādvinirmuktā āpavasya mahātmanaḥ ,
svasti te'stu gamiṣyāmi putraṁ pāhi mahāvratam.
54. tat te śāpāt vinirmuktā āpavasya mahātmanaḥ
svasti te astu gamiṣyāmi putram pāhi mahāvratam
54. I am now released from that curse of the great-souled Āpava. May well-being be yours. I shall go; protect this son, who is of great vows.
एष पर्यायवासो मे वसूनां संनिधौ कृतः ।
मत्प्रसूतं विजानीहि गङ्गादत्तमिमं सुतम् ॥५५॥
55. eṣa paryāyavāso me vasūnāṁ saṁnidhau kṛtaḥ ,
matprasūtaṁ vijānīhi gaṅgādattamimaṁ sutam.
55. eṣaḥ paryāyavāsaḥ me vasūnām saṃnidhau kṛtaḥ
matprasūtam vijānīhi gaṅgādattam imam sutam
55. This period of my dwelling has been completed in the presence of the Vasus. Recognize this son, born of me, as the one given by Gaṅgā.
