धून्यास आगच्छति ॥१९॥
nimlocati ha bhagavÄn sakala-jagat-ká¹£emodayas trayy-ÄtmÄdyÄpi mama na má¹›ga-vadhÅ«-nyÄsa Ägacchati
nimlocati - sets; ha - alas; bhagavÄn - the Supreme Personality of Godhead, represented as the sun; sakala-jagat - of all the universe; ká¹£ema-udayaḥ - who increases the auspiciousness; trayÄ«-ÄtmÄ - who consists of the three Vedas; adya api - until now; mama - my; na - not; má¹›ga-vadhÅ«-nyÄsaḥ - this baby deer entrusted to me by its mother; Ägacchati - has come back.
Alas, when the sun rises, all auspicious things begin. Unfortunately, they have not begun for me. The sun-god is the Vedas personified, but I am bereft of all Vedic principles. That sun-god is now setting, yet the poor animal who trusted in me since its mother died has not returned.
In the Brahma-saá¹hitÄ (5.52), the sun is described as the eye of the Supreme Personality of Godhead.
yac-caká¹£ur eá¹£a savitÄ sakala-grahÄṇÄá¹
rÄjÄ samasta-sura-mÅ«rtir aÅ›eá¹£a-tejÄḥ
yasyÄjñayÄ bhramati sambhá¹›ta-kÄla-cakro
govindam Ädi-puruá¹£aá¹ tam ahaá¹ bhajÄmi
As the sun arises, one should chant the Vedic mantra beginning with the GÄyatrÄ«. The sun is the symbolic representation of the eyes of the Supreme Lord. MahÄrÄja Bharata lamented that although the sun was going to set, due to the poor animal’s absence he could not find anything auspicious. Bharata MahÄrÄja considered himself most unfortunate, for due to the animal’s absence, there was nothing auspicious for him in the presence of the sun.
