Ramayana · Chapter 4.023

tataḥ samupajighrantī kapirājasya tanmukham
patiṃ lokāc cyutaṃ tārā mṛtaṃ vacanam abravīt

śeṣe tvaṃ viṣame duḥkham akṛtvā vacanaṃ mama
upalopacite vīra suduḥkhe vasudhātale

mattaḥ priyatarā nūnaṃ vānarendra mahī tava
śeṣe hi tāṃ pariṣvajya māṃ ca na pratibhāṣase

sugrīva eva vikrānto vīra sāhasika priya
ṛkṣavānaramukhyās tvāṃ balinaṃ paryupāsate

eṣāṃ vilapitaṃ kṛcchram aṅgadasya ca śocataḥ
mama cemāṃ giraṃ śrutvā kiṃ tvaṃ na pratibudhyase

idaṃ tac chūraśayanaṃ yatra śeṣe hato yudhi
śāyitā nihatā yatra tvayaiva ripavaḥ purā

viśuddhasattvābhijana priyayuddha mama priya
mām anāthāṃ vihāyaikāṃ gatas tvam asi mānada

śūrāya na pradātavyā kanyā khalu vipaścitā
śūrabhāryāṃ hatāṃ paśya sadyo māṃ vidhavāṃ kṛtām

avabhagnaś ca me māno bhagnā me śāśvatī gatiḥ
agādhe ca nimagnāsmi vipule śokasāgare

aśmasāramayaṃ nūnam idaṃ me hṛdayaṃ dṛḍham
bhartāraṃ nihataṃ dṛṣṭvā yan nādya śatadhā gatam

suhṛc caiva hi bhartā ca prakṛtyā ca mama priyaḥ
āhave ca parākrāntaḥ śūraḥ pañcatvam āgataḥ

patihīnā tu yā nārī kāmaṃ bhavatu putriṇī
dhanadhānyaiḥ supūrṇāpi vidhavety ucyate budhaiḥ

svagātraprabhave vīra śeṣe rudhiramaṇḍale
kṛmirāgaparistome tvam evaṃ śayane yathā

reṇuśoṇitasaṃvītaṃ gātraṃ tava samantataḥ
parirabdhuṃ na śaknomi bhujābhyāṃ plavagarṣabha

kṛtakṛtyo 'dya sugrīvo vaire 'sminn atidāruṇe
yasya rāmavimuktena hṛtam ekeṣuṇā bhayam

śareṇa hṛdi lagnena gātrasaṃsparśane tava
vāryāmi tvāṃ nirīkṣantī tvayi pañcatvam āgate

udbabarha śaraṃ nīlas tasya gātragataṃ tadā

tasya niṣkṛṣyamāṇasya bāṇasya ca babhau dyutiḥ
astamastakasaṃruddho raśmir dinakarād iva

petuḥ kṣatajadhārās tu vraṇebhyas tasya sarvaśaḥ

avakīrṇaṃ vimārjantī bhartāraṃ raṇareṇunā
asrair nayanajaiḥ śūraṃ siṣecāstrasamāhatam

rudhirokṣitasarvāṅgaṃ dṛṣṭvā vinihataṃ patim
uvāca tārā piṅgākṣaṃ putram aṅgadam aṅganā

avasthāṃ paścimāṃ paśya pituḥ putra sudāruṇām
saṃprasaktasya vairasya gato 'ntaḥ pāpakarmaṇā

bālasūryodayatanuṃ prayāntaṃ yamasādanam
abhivādaya rājānaṃ pitaraṃ putra mānadam

evam uktaḥ samutthāya jagrāha caraṇau pituḥ
bhujābhyāṃ pīnavṛtābhyām aṅgado 'ham iti bruvan

abhivādayamānaṃ tvām aṅgadaṃ tvaṃ yathāpurā
dīrghāyur bhava putreti kimarthaṃ nābhibhāṣase

ahaṃ putrasahāyā tvām upāse gatacetanam
