कुमारसम्भवम् (महाकवि कालिदास - संस्कृत मूल एवं हिन्दी अनुवाद)

( ११८ ) hence the red colour which pervades the sky before the sunrise This gives it the title of ' the harbinger of the dawn.' In अरुणाय the Dative is used because the sense of infinitive is understood अरुणाय—अरुणं गन्तुं , अरुणोदयं कर्त्तुम् । Cf ‘ क्रियार्थोपपदस्य च० ’ quoted in the notes on पन्नगरत्नसूचये in the 43rd verse above. कल्पते—प्रभवति to be able or fit for Shiva means to say as the night in its youth can not think of the dawn, so Parvati also should not have thought of putting on bark garments in her youth The connection between the moon and the stars and Aruna on one hand and the ornaments and bark garment on the other is made all the more effective when their respective lustre and colour are taken into consideration Ornaments glitter like the moon and the stars, while bark is of the same colour as the dawn 44 CHANGE OF VOICE :—( हे गौरि ) त्वं यौवने आभरणानि अपास्य वार्धकशोभि वल्कल किमिति धृतवती ? यदि स्फुटचन्द्र- तारकया विभावर्या प्रदोषे अरुणाय कल्प्यते तर्हि ( त्वया ) उद्य- ताम् ॥ ४४ ॥ HINDI TRANSLATION :—( हे पार्वति ) तुम ने युवावस्था में आभूषणों को छोड़ कर वृद्धावस्था में अच्छी लगने वाली वृक्ष की छाल क्यों धारण कर ली है ? बता तो सही, कहीं चमकते हुए चन्द्रमा तथा तारों वाली रात्रि प्रारम्भ में ही प्रभात में परिणत हो सकती है ? ॥ ४४ ॥
