[INDOLOGY] A distraction from the Coronavirus

[Christian Ferstl]

Everything passes ...

चिराद्दिवास्वप्ननिमग्नमानसः
प्रबोधितो बन्धुजनेन कामुकः।
सुविस्मितो ऽभून्मदनातुरो ऽपि सन्
गतं विषाणुव्यसनं यदा श्रुतम् ॥

In spite of his lovesickness, the lover, whose mind had been lost in a 
daydream and who was awakened by his friends after a long time, was 
surprised when he heard of the past virus disaster.
