hatvā tu taṃ bhīmabalaṃ virādhaṃ rākṣasaṃ vane
tataḥ sītāṃ pariṣvajya samāśvāsya ca vīryavān
abravīl lakṣmaṇaṃ rāmo bhrātaraṃ dīptatejasam //

kaṣṭaṃ vanam idaṃ durgaṃ na ca smo vanagocarāḥ
abhigacchāmahe śīghraṃ śarabhaṅgaṃ tapodhanam //

āśramaṃ śarabhaṅgasya rāghavo 'bhijagāma ha //

tasya devaprabhāvasya tapasā bhāvitātmanaḥ

suprabhābharaṇaṃ devaṃ virajo'mbaradhāriṇam
tadvidhair eva bahubhiḥ pūjyamānaṃ mahātmabhiḥ //

haribhir vājibhir yuktam antarikṣagataṃ ratham
dadarśādūratas tasya taruṇādityasaṃnibham //

pāṇḍurābhraghanaprakhyaṃ candramaṇḍalasaṃnibham
apaśyad vimalaṃ chattraṃ citramālyopaśobhitam //

dṛṣṭvā śatakratuṃ tatra rāmo lakṣmaṇam abravīt
ye hayāḥ puruhūtasya purā śakrasya naḥ śrutāḥ
antarikṣagatā divyās ta ime harayo dhruvam //

tataḥ samabhigacchantaṃ prekṣya rāmaṃ śacīpatiḥ
śarabhaṅgam anujñāpya vibudhān idam abravīt //

ihopayāty asau rāmo yāvan māṃ nābhibhāṣate
niṣṭhāṃ nayata tāvat tu tato māṃ draṣṭum arhati //

jitavantaṃ kṛtārthaṃ ca draṣṭāham acirād imam

tataḥ śakropayānaṃ tu paryapṛcchat sa rāghavaḥ
śarabhaṅgaś ca tat sarvaṃ rāghavāya nyavedayat //

mām eṣa varado rāma brahmalokaṃ ninīṣati
