kandarpa-jvara-saṃjvara-ātura-tanoḥ āścaryam asyāḥ ciram  
cetaḥ candana-candramaḥ-kamalinī-cintāsu saṃtāmyati /  
kiṃtu klānti-vaśena śītala-tanum tvām ekam eva priyam  
dhyāyantī rahasi sthitā katham api kṣīṇā kṣaṇam prāṇiti //

> It is wondrous how, with her body tormented by the burning fever of Kandarpa,  
> her heart has long grieved amidst thoughts of sandalwood, the moon, and lotus ponds;  
> yet, overcome by exhaustion, meditating in secret on you alone, her beloved of cooling limbs,  
> she, wasting away, somehow breathes for a moment.
