Ramayana · Chapter 5.044

hatān mantrisutān buddhvā vānareṇa mahātmanā
rāvaṇaḥ saṃvṛtākāraś cakāra matim uttamām

sa virūpākṣayūpākṣau durdharaṃ caiva rākṣasaṃ
praghasaṃ bhāsakarṇaṃ ca pañcasenāgranāyakān

saṃdideśa daśagrīvo vīrān nayaviśāradān
hanūmadgrahaṇe vyagrān vāyuvegasamān yudhi

yāta senāgragāḥ sarve mahābalaparigrahāḥ
savājirathamātaṅgāḥ sa kapiḥ śāsyatām iti

yat taiś ca khalu bhāvyaṃ syāt tam āsādya vanālayam
karma cāpi samādheyaṃ deśakālavirodhitam

na hy ahaṃ taṃ kapiṃ manye karmaṇā pratitarkayan
sarvathā tan mahad bhūtaṃ mahābalaparigraham
bhaved indreṇa vā sṛṣṭam asmadarthaṃ tapobalāt

sanāgayakṣagandharvā devāsuramaharṣayaḥ
yuṣmābhiḥ sahitaiḥ sarvair mayā saha vinirjitāḥ

tair avaśyaṃ vidhātavyaṃ vyalīkaṃ kiṃ cid eva naḥ
tad eva nātra saṃdehaḥ prasahya parigṛhyatām

nāvamanyo bhavadbhiś ca hariḥ krūraparākramaḥ
dṛṣṭā hi harayaḥ śīghrā mayā vipulavikramāḥ

vālī ca saha sugrīvo jāmbavāṃś ca mahābalaḥ
nīlaḥ senāpatiś caiva ye cānye dvividādayaḥ

naiva teṣāṃ gatir bhīmā na tejo na parākramaḥ
na matir na balotsāho na rūpaparikalpanam

mahat sattvam idaṃ jñeyaṃ kapirūpaṃ vyavasthitam
prayatnaṃ mahad āsthāya kriyatām asya nigrahaḥ

kāmaṃ lokās trayaḥ sendrāḥ sasurāsuramānavāḥ
bhavatām agrataḥ sthātuṃ na paryāptā raṇājire

tathāpi tu nayajñena jayam ākāṅkṣatā raṇe
ātmā rakṣyaḥ prayatnena yuddhasiddhir hi cañcalā

te svāmivacanaṃ sarve pratigṛhya mahaujasaḥ
samutpetur mahāvegā hutāśasamatejasaḥ

rathaiś ca mattair nāgaiś ca vājibhiś ca mahājavaiḥ
śastraiś ca vividhais tīkṣṇaiḥ sarvaiś copacitā balaiḥ

tatas taṃ dadṛśur vīrā dīpyamānaṃ mahākapim
raśmimantam ivodyantaṃ svatejoraśmimālinam

toraṇasthaṃ mahāvegaṃ mahāsattvaṃ mahābalam
mahāmatiṃ mahotsāhaṃ mahākāyaṃ mahābalam

taṃ samīkṣyaiva te sarve dikṣu sarvāsv avasthitāḥ
tais taiḥ praharaṇair bhīmair abhipetus tatas tataḥ

tasya pañcāyasās tīkṣṇāḥ sitāḥ pītamukhāḥ śarāḥ
śirasty utpalapatrābhā durdhareṇa nipātitāḥ

sa taiḥ pañcabhir āviddhaḥ śaraiḥ śirasi vānaraḥ
utpapāta nadan vyomni diśo daśa vinādayan

tatas tu durdharo vīraḥ sarathaḥ sajjakārmukaḥ
kirañ śaraśatair naikair abhipede mahābalaḥ

sa kapir vārayām āsa taṃ vyomni śaravarṣiṇam
vṛṣṭimantaṃ payodānte payodam iva mārutaḥ

ardyamānas tatas tena durdhareṇānilātmajaḥ
cakāra ninadaṃ bhūyo vyavardhata ca vegavān

sa dūraṃ sahasotpatya durdharasya rathe hariḥ
nipapāta mahāvego vidyudrāśir girāv iva

tatas taṃ mathitāṣṭāśvaṃ rathaṃ bhagnākṣakūvaram
vihāya nyapatad bhūmau durdharas tyaktajīvitaḥ

taṃ virūpākṣayūpākṣau dṛṣṭvā nipatitaṃ bhuvi
saṃjātaroṣau durdharṣāv utpetatur ariṃdamau

sa tābhyāṃ sahasotpatya viṣṭhito vimale 'mbare
mudgarābhyāṃ mahābāhur vakṣasy abhihataḥ kapiḥ

tayor vegavator vegaṃ vinihatya mahābalaḥ
nipapāta punar bhūmau suparṇasamavikramaḥ

sa sālavṛkṣam āsādya samutpāṭya ca vānaraḥ
tāv ubhau rākṣasau vīrau jaghāna pavanātmajaḥ

tatas tāṃs trīn hatāñ jñātvā vānareṇa tarasvinā
abhipede mahāvegaḥ prasahya praghaso harim

bhāsakarṇaś ca saṃkruddhaḥ śūlam ādāya vīryavān
ekataḥ kapiśārdūlaṃ yaśasvinam avasthitau

paṭṭiśena śitāgreṇa praghasaḥ pratyapothayat
bhāsakarṇaś ca śūlena rākṣasaḥ kapisattamam

sa tābhyāṃ vikṣatair gātrair asṛgdigdhatanūruhaḥ
abhavad vānaraḥ kruddho bālasūryasamaprabhaḥ

samutpāṭya gireḥ śṛṅgaṃ samṛgavyālapādapam
jaghāna hanumān vīro rākṣasau kapikuñjaraḥ

tatas teṣv avasanneṣu senāpatiṣu pañcasu
balaṃ tad avaśeṣaṃ tu nāśayām āsa vānaraḥ

aśvair aśvān gajair nāgān yodhair yodhān rathai rathān
sa kapir nāśayām āsa sahasrākṣa ivāsurān

hatair nāgaiś ca turagair bhagnākṣaiś ca mahārathaiḥ
hataiś ca rākṣasair bhūmī ruddhamārgā samantataḥ

tataḥ kapis tān dhvajinīpatīn raṇe nihatya vīrān sabalān savāhanān
tad eva vīraḥ parigṛhya toraṇaṃ kṛtakṣaṇaḥ kāla iva prajākṣaye
