srutva mrtam putram alaksitantakam
vinasta-drstih prapatan skhalan pathi
snehanubandhaidhitaya suca bhrsam
vimurcchito ’nuprakrtir dvijair vrtah
papata balasya sa pada-mule
mrtasya visrasta-siroruhambarah
dirgham svasan baspa-kaloparodhato
niruddha-kantho na sasaka bhasitum
Translation by His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Srila Prabhupada:
When King Citraketu heard of his son’s death from unknown causes, he became almost blind. Because of his great affection for his son, his lamentation grew like a blazing fire, and as he went to see the dead child, he kept slipping and falling on the ground. Surrounded by his ministers and other officers and the learned brahmanas present, the King approached and fell unconscious at the child’s feet, his hair and dress scattered. When the King, breathing heavily, regained consciousness, his eyes were tearful, and he could not speak.
