Sanskrit Original

tatastadindrakṣayasannibhaṅ puraṅ didṛkṣubhirjānapadairupāgataiḥ. samantata ssasvanamākulaṅ babhau samudrayādōbhirivārṇavōdakam৷৷
The city (of Ayodhya), resembling the abode of Indra, (Amaravati) crowded with villagers from all over wishing to witness it (the coronation of Rama), grew noisy and sparkled like the water of the ocean teeming with aquatic animals. इत्यार्षे श्रीमद्रामायणे वाल्मीकीय आदिकाव्ये अयोध्याकाण्डे षष्ठस्सर्गः।। Thus ends the sixth sarga of Ayodhyakanda of the holy Ramayana, the first epic composed by sage Valmiki.
