Verse 39.7

नित्यमत्तविहंगानि भ्रमराचरितानि च। कोकिलाकुलखण्डानि विहंगाभिरुतानि च॥ भृङ्गराजाधिगीतानि कुररस्वनितानि च। विविशुस्ते ततस्तानि वनान्युपवनानि च॥

nityamattavihaṃgāni bhramarācaritāni ca| kokilākulakhaṇḍāni vihaṃgābhirutāni ca|| bhṛṅgarājādhigītāni kurarasvanitāni ca| viviśuste tatastāni vanānyupavanāni ca||

English Meaning

The heroic and exhilarated monkeys, capable of wearing forms at pleasure, entered those woods and groves frequented by maddened birds and ranged by Bhramaras, tracts overflowing with the lays of coels, and ringing with the voices of songsters, resonant with the notes of Bhramaras, sovereigns of their species and eloquent with the cries of ospreys.
