Ramayana · Chapter 4.035

ity uktas tārayā vākyaṃ praśritaṃ dharmasaṃhitam
mṛdusvabhāvaḥ saumitriḥ pratijagrāha tad vacaḥ

tasmin pratigṛhīte tu vākye harigaṇeśvaraḥ
lakṣmaṇāt sumahat trāsaṃ vastraṃ klinnam ivātyajat

tataḥ kaṇṭhagataṃ mālyaṃ citraṃ bahuguṇaṃ mahat
ciccheda vimadaś cāsīt sugrīvo vānareśvaraḥ

sa lakṣmaṇaṃ bhīmabalaṃ sarvavānarasattamaḥ
abravīt praśritaṃ vākyaṃ sugrīvaḥ saṃpraharṣayan

pranaṣṭā śrīś ca kīrtiś ca kapirājyaṃ ca śāśvatam
rāmaprasādāt saumitre punaḥ prāptam idaṃ mayā

kaḥ śaktas tasya devasya khyātasya svena karmaṇā
tādṛśaṃ vikramaṃ vīra pratikartum ariṃdama

sītāṃ prāpsyati dharmātmā vadhiṣyati ca rāvaṇam
sahāyamātreṇa mayā rāghavaḥ svena tejasā

sahāyakṛtyaṃ hi tasya yena sapta mahādrumāḥ
śailaś ca vasudhā caiva bāṇenaikena dāritāḥ

dhanur visphāramāṇasya yasya śabdena lakṣmaṇa
saśailā kampitā bhūmiḥ sahāyais tasya kiṃ nu vai

anuyātrāṃ narendrasya kariṣye 'haṃ nararṣabha
gacchato rāvaṇaṃ hantuṃ vairiṇaṃ sapuraḥsaram

yadi kiṃ cid atikrāntaṃ viśvāsāt praṇayena vā
preṣyasya kṣamitavyaṃ me na kaś cin nāparādhyati

iti tasya bruvāṇasya sugrīvasya mahātmanaḥ
abhaval lakṣmaṇaḥ prītaḥ preṃṇā cedam uvāca ha

sarvathā hi mama bhrātā sanātho vānareśvara
tvayā nāthena sugrīva praśritena viśeṣataḥ

yas te prabhāvaḥ sugrīva yac ca te śaucam uttamam
arhas taṃ kapirājyasya śriyaṃ bhoktum anuttamām

sahāyena ca sugrīva tvayā rāmaḥ pratāpavān
vadhiṣyati raṇe śatrūn acirān nātra saṃśayaḥ

dharmajñasya kṛtajñasya saṃgrāmeṣv anivartinaḥ
upapannaṃ ca yuktaṃ ca sugrīva tava bhāṣitam

doṣajñaḥ sati sāmarthye ko 'nyo bhāṣitum arhati
varjayitvā mama jyeṣṭhaṃ tvāṃ ca vānarasattama

sadṛśaś cāsi rāmasya vikrameṇa balena ca
sahāyo daivatair dattaś cirāya haripuṃgava

kiṃ tu śīghram ito vīra niṣkrāma tvaṃ mayā saha
sāntvayasva vayasyaṃ ca bhāryāharaṇaduḥkhitam

yac ca śokābhibhūtasya śrutvā rāmasya bhāṣitam
mayā tvaṃ paruṣāṇy uktas tac ca tvaṃ kṣantum arhasi
