2.89.2

abravīc ca varārohāṃ cārucandranibhānanām
videharājasya sutāṃ rāmo rājīvalocanaḥ //

Then Ráma, like the lotus eyed,
Descended from the mountain side,
And to the Maithil lady showed
The lovely stream that softly flowed.
And thus Ayodhyá's lord addressed
His bride, of dames the loveliest,
Child of Videha's king, her face
Bright with the fair moon's tender grace:
'How sweetly glides, O darling, look,
Mandákiní's delightful brook,
Adorned with islets, blossoms gay,
And s'arases and swans at play!

Ralph T. H. Griffith 1870, The Rámáyan of Válmíki, translated into English verse
