कूजत्कोकिल कोमलं कलरवैर्नित्यं प्रशस्ताकृते केनेदं बत शिक्षितोसि वचनं दुःखप्रदं दुर्भगम् ।
चैत्रे चित्रनवाङ्कुरे विरहिणी वक्ति त्वया यात्मनः कस्यायं मधुरित्यतस्तव तवेत्युक्तं त्वरोच्चैस्तरोः ॥ ७८ ॥

kūjatkokila komalaṃ kalaravairnityaṃ praśastākṛte kenedaṃ bata śikṣitosi vacanaṃ duḥkhapradaṃ durbhagam |
caitre citranavāṅkure virahiṇī vakti tvayā yātmanaḥ kasyāyaṃ madhurityatastava tavetyuktaṃ tvaroccaistaroḥ || 78 ||

A separated mistress seeing a sweet kokila, pour forth his notes to the tender blossoms of the vernal season thus address to him saying: “say, O sweet cuckoo! who taught thee to tell, that vernal season is tava tava tua tua, i.e. ”for thee and thy enjoyment,“ this is verily an woeful lie thou tellest me, instead of saying ”it is mine and mine“that art enjoying thy companion.”
