हरितकनकम्

तस्मात् सुबहवो वृक्षा रोप्याः श्रेयोभिवाम्च्छता l

पुत्रवत् परिपाल्याश्च ते पुत्राः धर्मतः स्मृताः ll

THERFORE THOSE WHO ASPIRE FOR THE HIGHEST GOOD OUGHT TO GROW PLENTY OF TRESS AND BRING THEM UP LIKE SONS, FOR TREES ARE CONSIDERED TO BE SONS, ACCORDING RELIGIOUS PRECEPTS.

पुष्पैः सुरगणाः सर्वे फलैश्च पितरः सदा l

छायया ये मनुष्यास्तु पशुपक्षिमृगास्तथा ll

ALL THE DIVINE BEINGS ARE PROPITIATED WITH FLOWERS, ALL THE FOREFATHERS ARE PROPITIATED WITH FRUITS, ALL MEN, ANIMALS AND BIRDS ARE SATISFIED BY THE SHADE OF TREES,

देवदानवगन्धर्वाः किन्नरनागुह्यकाः l

पशुपक्षिमनुषश्याश्च संश्रयन्ति सदा द्रुमान् l l

GOD, DEMONS, GANDHARVAS, KINNARAS, NAGAS, YAKSHAS BEING ALWAYS TAKE SHELTER UNDER TREES

छाया पुष्पोपगांत्रिशत् फल पुष्प द्रुमांस्तथा l
रोपयित्वा सशाखांस्तु नरो न नरकं व्रजेत् ll

THE MAN, WHO PLANTS THIRTY TREES WITH SHADE, FLOWERS AND BRANCHES YEILDING FRUITS, NEVER GOES TO HELL.
