Ramayana · Chapter 5.039

sa ca vāgbhiḥ praśastābhir gamiṣyan pūjitas tayā
tasmād deśād apakramya cintayām āsa vānaraḥ

alpaśeṣam idaṃ kāryaṃ dṛṣṭeyam asitekṣaṇā
trīn upāyān atikramya caturtha iha dṛśyate

na sāma rakṣaḥsu guṇāya kalpate na danam arthopaciteṣu vartate
na bhedasādhyā baladarpitā janāḥ parākramas tv eṣa mameha rocate

na cāsya kāryasya parākramād ṛte viniścayaḥ kaś cid ihopapadyate
hṛtapravīrās tu raṇe hi rākṣasāḥ kathaṃ cid īyur yad ihādya mārdavam

kārye karmaṇi nirdiṣṭo yo bahūny api sādhayet
pūrvakāryavirodhena sa kāryaṃ kartum arhati

na hy ekaḥ sādhako hetuḥ svalpasyāpīha karmaṇaḥ
yo hy arthaṃ bahudhā veda sa samartho 'rthasādhane

ihaiva tāvat kṛtaniścayo hy ahaṃ yadi vrajeyaṃ plavageśvarālayam
parātmasaṃmarda viśeṣatattvavit tataḥ kṛtaṃ syān mama bhartṛśāsanam

kathaṃ nu khalv adya bhavet sukhāgataṃ prasahya yuddhaṃ mama rākṣasaiḥ saha
tathaiva khalv ātmabalaṃ ca sāravat samānayen māṃ ca raṇe daśānanaḥ

idam asya nṛśaṃsasya nandanopamam uttamam
vanaṃ netramanaḥkāntaṃ nānādrumalatāyutam

idaṃ vidhvaṃsayiṣyāmi śuṣkaṃ vanam ivānalaḥ
asmin bhagne tataḥ kopaṃ kariṣyati sa rāvaṇaḥ

tato mahat sāśvamahārathadvipaṃ balaṃ samāneṣv api rākṣasādhipaḥ
triśūlakālāyasapaṭṭiśāyudhaṃ tato mahad yuddham idaṃ bhaviṣyati

ahaṃ tu taiḥ saṃyati caṇḍavikramaiḥ sametya rakṣobhir asaṃgavikramaḥ
nihatya tad rāvaṇacoditaṃ balaṃ sukhaṃ gamiṣyāmi kapīśvarālayam

tato mārutavat kruddho mārutir bhīmavikramaḥ
ūruvegena mahatā drumān kṣeptum athārabhat

tatas tad dhanumān vīro babhañja pramadāvanam
mattadvijasamāghuṣṭaṃ nānādrumalatāyutam

tad vanaṃ mathitair vṛkṣair bhinnaiś ca salilāśayaiḥ
cūrṇitaiḥ parvatāgraiś ca babhūvāpriyadarśanam

latāgṛhaiś citragṛhaiś ca nāśitair mahoragair vyālamṛgaiś ca nirdhutaiḥ
śilāgṛhair unmathitais tathā gṛhaiḥ pranaṣṭarūpaṃ tad abhūn mahad vanam

sa tasya kṛtvārthapater mahākapir mahad vyalīkaṃ manaso mahātmanaḥ
yuyutsur eko bahubhir mahābalaiḥ śriyā jvalaṃs toraṇam āśritaḥ kapiḥ
