Ramayana · Chapter 6.051

tasya rākṣasarājasya niśamya paridevitam
kumbhakarṇo babhāṣe 'tha vacanaṃ prajahāsa ca

dṛṣṭo doṣo hi yo 'smābhiḥ purā mantravinirṇaye
hiteṣv anabhiyuktena so 'yam āsāditas tvayā

śīghraṃ khalv abhyupetaṃ tvāṃ phalaṃ pāpasya karmaṇaḥ
nirayeṣv eva patanaṃ yathā duṣkṛtakarmaṇaḥ

prathamaṃ vai mahārāja kṛtyam etad acintitam
kevalaṃ vīryadarpeṇa nānubandho vicāritaḥ

yaḥ paścāt pūrvakāryāṇi kuryād aiśvaryam āsthitaḥ
pūrvaṃ cottarakāryāṇi na sa veda nayānayau

deśakālavihīnāni karmāṇi viparītavat
kriyamāṇāni duṣyanti havīṃṣy aprayateṣv iva

trayāṇāṃ pañcadhā yogaṃ karmaṇāṃ yaḥ prapaśyati
sacivaiḥ samayaṃ kṛtvā sa sabhye vartate pathi

yathāgamaṃ ca yo rājā samayaṃ vicikīrṣati
budhyate sacivān buddhyā suhṛdaś cānupaśyati

dharmam arthaṃ ca kāmaṃ ca sarvān vā rakṣasāṃ pate
bhajate puruṣaḥ kāle trīṇi dvandvāni vā punaḥ

triṣu caiteṣu yac chreṣṭhaṃ śrutvā tan nāvabudhyate
rājā vā rājamātro vā vyarthaṃ tasya bahuśrutam

upapradānaṃ sāntvaṃ vā bhedaṃ kāle ca vikramam
yogaṃ ca rakṣasāṃ śreṣṭha tāv ubhau ca nayānayau

kāle dharmārthakāmān yaḥ saṃmantrya sacivaiḥ saha
niṣevetātmavāṃl loke na sa vyasanam āpnuyāt

hitānubandham ālokya kāryākāryam ihātmanaḥ
rājā sahārthatattvajñaiḥ sacivaiḥ saha jīvati

anabhijñāya śāstrārthān puruṣāḥ paśubuddhayaḥ
prāgalbhyād vaktum icchanti mantreṣv abhyantarīkṛtāḥ

aśāstraviduṣāṃ teṣāṃ na kāryam ahitaṃ vacaḥ
arthaśāstrānabhijñānāṃ vipulāṃ śriyam icchatām

ahitaṃ ca hitākāraṃ dhārṣṭyāj jalpanti ye narāḥ
avekṣya mantrabāhyās te kartavyāḥ kṛtyadūṣaṇāḥ

vināśayanto bhartāraṃ sahitāḥ śatrubhir budhaiḥ
viparītāni kṛtyāni kārayantīha mantriṇaḥ

tān bhartā mitrasaṃkāśān amitrān mantranirṇaye
vyavahāreṇa jānīyāt sacivān upasaṃhitān

capalasyeha kṛtyāni sahasānupradhāvataḥ
chidram anye prapadyante krauñcasya kham iva dvijāḥ

yo hi śatrum avajñāya nātmānam abhirakṣati
avāpnoti hi so 'narthān sthānāc ca vyavaropyate

tat tu śrutvā daśagrīvaḥ kumbhakarṇasya bhāṣitam
bhrukuṭiṃ caiva saṃcakre kruddhaś cainam uvāca ha

mānyo gurur ivācāryaḥ kiṃ māṃ tvam anuśāsati
kim evaṃ vākśramaṃ kṛtvā kāle yuktaṃ vidhīyatām

vibhramāc cittamohād vā balavīryāśrayeṇa vā
nābhipannam idānīṃ yad vyarthās tasya punaḥ kṛthāḥ

asmin kāle tu yad yuktaṃ tad idānīṃ vidhīyatām
mamāpanayajaṃ doṣaṃ vikrameṇa samīkuru

yadi khalv asti me sneho bhrātṛtvaṃ vāvagacchasi
yadi vā kāryam etat te hṛdi kāryatamaṃ matam

sa suhṛdyo vipannārthaṃ dīnam abhyavapadyate
sa bandhur yo 'panīteṣu sāhāyyāyopakalpate

tam athaivaṃ bruvāṇaṃ tu vacanaṃ dhīradāruṇam
ruṣṭo 'yam iti vijñāya śanaiḥ ślakṣṇam uvāca ha

atīva hi samālakṣya bhrātaraṃ kṣubhitendriyam
kumbhakarṇaḥ śanair vākyaṃ babhāṣe parisāntvayan

alaṃ rākṣasarājendra saṃtāpam upapadya te
roṣaṃ ca saṃparityajya svastho bhavitum arhasi

naitan manasi kartavvyaṃ mayi jīvati pārthiva
tam ahaṃ nāśayiṣyāmi yatkṛte paritapyase

avaśyaṃ tu hitaṃ vācyaṃ sarvāvasthaṃ mayā tava
bandhubhāvād abhihitaṃ bhrātṛsnehāc ca pārthiva

sadṛśaṃ yat tu kāle 'smin kartuṃ snigdhena bandhunā
śatrūṇāṃ kadanaṃ paśya kriyamāṇaṃ mayā raṇe

adya paśya mahābāho mayā samaramūrdhani

adya rāmasya tad dṛṣṭvā mayānītaṃ raṇāc chiraḥ
sukhībhava mahābāho sītā bhavatu duḥkhitā

adya rāmasya paśyantu nidhanaṃ sumahat priyam
laṅkāyāṃ rākṣasāḥ sarve ye te nihatabāndhavāḥ

adya śokaparītānāṃ svabandhuvadhakāraṇāt
śatror yudhi vināśena karomy asrapramārjanam

adya parvatasaṃkāśaṃ sasūryam iva toyadam
vikīrṇaṃ paśya samare sugrīvaṃ plavageśvaram

na paraḥ preṣaṇīyas te yuddhāyātula vikrama
aham utsādayiṣyāmi śatrūṃs tava mahābala

yadi śakro yadi yamo yadi pāvakamārutau
tān ahaṃ yodhayiṣyāmi kubera varuṇāv api

girimātraśarīrasya śitaśūladharasya me
nardatas tīkṣṇadaṃṣṭrasya bibhīyāc ca puraṃdaraḥ

atha vā tyaktaśastrasya mṛdgatas tarasā ripūn
na me pratimukhe kaś cic chaktaḥ sthātuṃ jijīviṣuḥ

naiva śaktyā na gadayā nāsinā na śitaiḥ śaraiḥ
hastābhyām eva saṃrabdho haniṣyāmy api vajriṇam

yadi me muṣṭivegaṃ sa rāghavo 'dya sahiṣyati
tataḥ pāsyanti bāṇaughā rudhiraṃ rāghavasya te

cintayā bādhyase rājan kimarthaṃ mayi tiṣṭhati
so 'haṃ śatruvināśāya tava niryātum udyataḥ

muñca rāmād bhayaṃ rājan haniṣyāmīha saṃyuge
rāghavaṃ lakṣmaṇaṃ caiva sugrīvaṃ ca mahābalam
asādhāraṇam icchāmi tava dātuṃ mahad yaśaḥ

vadhena te dāśaratheḥ sukhāvahaṃ sukhaṃ samāhartum ahaṃ vrajāmi
nihatya rāmaṃ sahalakṣmaṇena khādāmi sarvān hariyūthamukhyān

ramasva kāmaṃ piba cāgryavāruṇīṃ kuruṣva kṛtyāni vinīyatāṃ jvaraḥ
mayādya rāme gamite yamakṣayaṃ cirāya sītā vaśagā bhaviṣyati
