भरतो नाम कैकेय्यां जातः सत्यपराक्रमः ।
अथ लक्ष्मणशत्रुघ्नौ सुमित्राऽजनयत् सुतौ ॥
Bharata, of unfailing valour, was born
to Kaikeyi. And Sumitra gave birth to

पुष्ये जातस्तु भरतो मीनलग्ने प्रसन्नधीः ।
सार्पे जातौ च सौमित्री कुलीरेऽभ्युदिते रवौ ॥
Bharata, of clear intellect, was born
under the constellation Pushya in Mina

under the constellation Aslesha (ruled over
by the Sarpa) when the Sun was in Karkata
lagna.
राज्ञः पुत्रः महात्मानश् चत्वारो जज्ञिरे पृथक् ।
गुणवन्तोऽनुरूप्राश्च रुच्या प्रोष्ठपदोपमाः ॥
The four high-souled sons of the king
were born one after another; they were
