Valmiki Ramayana Aranya Kanda Sarga 23 Shloka 13

खद्योतसम्प्रभाः glittering like fireflies, ताराः stars, विना without, रात्रिम् night, उत्पेतुः rose, संलीनमीनविहगाः fishes and birds disappear, नलिन्यः lotusponds, शुष्कपङ्कजाः have dried up lotuses, तस्मिन् in that, क्षणे moment, द्रुमाः trees, पुष्पफलैः flowers and fruits, विना without, बभूवुश्च became.

The stars rose in the sky and glittered like fireflies even before night arrived. The fishes and the aquatic birds in the lotusponds hid themselves under water. Lotuses dried up in tanks and the trees stood bereft of flowers and fruits.
