Verse 3.4.71
unmādaḥ —
kva me putro nīpāḥ kathayata kuraṅgāḥ kim iha vaḥ
sa babhrāmābhyarṇe bhaṇata tam udantaṃ madhukarāḥ |
iti bhrāmaṃ bhrāmaṃ bhrama-bhara-vidūnā yadupate
bhavantaṃ pṛcchantī diśi diśi yaśodā vicarati ||3.4.71||
Unmāda(insanity):
“ ‘O kadamba trees, where is my son? O deer, is my son wandering about
near you? O bees! Please tell us some news about Him.’ O Lord of the Yadus, in this way, with completely confused mind, the suffering Yaśodā wandered about in all directions asking for news of You.”
