acakamata sapallavāṃ dharitrīṃ mṛdusurabhiṃ virahayya puṣpaśayyām /
bhṛśamaratimavāpya tatra cāsyās tava sukhaśītamupaitumaṅkamicchā //

Leaving behind her soft, fragrant bed of blossoms, she longed for the sprout-strewn earth; / and having found intense despair even there, her desire is to seek the lap of your body, pleasantly cool.
