vaktraṃ candra-vikāsi paṅkaja-parīhāsa-kṣame locane
varṇaḥ svarṇam apākariṣṇur alinī-jiṣṇuḥ kacānāṃ cayaḥ |
bakṣojāv ibha-kumbha-vibhrama-harau gurvī nitamba-sthalī
vācāṃ hāri ca mārdavaṃ yuvatīṣu svābhāvikaṃ maṇḍanam ||
A face radiant as the moon, eyes able to mock the lotus, / a complexion that casts gold aside, a mass of hair conquering the female black bee, / breasts dispelling the charm of an elephant's temples, heavy hips, / and a captivating softness of speech—this is the natural adornment of young women.
