ततः सीरध्वजो जज्ञे यज्ञार्थं कर्षतो महीम् । सीता सीराग्रतो जाता तस्मात्सीरध्वजः स्मृतः ।। ९-१३-१८ ।।

sanskrit

From Hrasvaromā came a son named Śīradhvaja [also called Janaka]. When Śīradhvaja was plowing a field, from the front of his plow [śīra] appeared a daughter named Sītādevī, who later became the wife of Lord Rāmacandra. Thus he was known as Śīradhvaja. ।। 9-13-18 ।।

english translation

ह्रस्वरोमा से शीरध्वज (जिसका नाम जनक भी था) नामक पुत्र उत्पन्न हुआ। जब वह खेत जोत रहा था तो उसके हल (शीर) के अग्रभाग से सीतादेवी नामक कन्या प्रकट हुई जो बाद में भगवान् रामचन्द्र की पत्नी बनी। इस तरह वह शीरध्वज कहलाया। ।। ९-१३-१८ ।।
