तर्पिताशाचकोरेण चित्तरत्नरसैषिणा ।
राजहंसविलासिन्यः प्रालेयशिशिराङ्गिकाः ॥ ५८ ॥

tarpitāśācakoreṇa cittaratnarasaiṣiṇā |
rājahaṃsavilāsinyaḥ prāleyaśiśirāṅgikāḥ || 58 ||

It is under the influence of the cooling moon-light of ignorance;that our minds foster the fond desire of worldly enjoyments;and like the chakora birds of night, drink their fill of delight as ambrosial moon-beams.
