अश्नापिनद्धं मधु पर्यपश्यन मत्स्यं न दीन उदनिक्षियन्तम | निष टज्जभार चमसं न वर्क्षाद्ब्र्हस्पतिर्विरवेणा विक्र्त्य
IAST Romanisation
aśnāpinaddhaṃ madhu paryapaśyan matsyaṃ na dīna udanikṣiyantam | niṣ ṭajjabhāra camasaṃ na vṛkṣādbṛhaspatirviraveṇā vikṛtya
English Translation (Griffith)
He looked around on rock-imprisoned sweetness as one who eyes a fish in scanty water. Bṛhaspati, cleaving through with varied clamour, brought it forth like a bowl from out the timber.
