Srimad-Bhagavatam: Canto 11 - Chapter 1 - Verse 66


Sanskrit:

सासकृत्‍स्‍नेहगुणिता दीनचित्ताजमायया ।स्वयं चाबध्यत शिचा बद्धान् पश्यन्त्यपस्मृति: ॥ ६६ ॥

ITRANS:

sāsakṛt sneha-guṇitādīna-cittāja-māyayāsvayaṁ cābadhyata śicābaddhān paśyanty apasmṛtiḥ

Translation:

The lady pigeon had always allowed herself to be bound by the ropes of intense material affection, and thus her mind was overwhelmed by anguish. Being in the grip of the illusory energy of the Lord, she completely forgot herself, and rushing forward to her helpless children, she was immediately bound in the hunter’s net.
