Rāma Summoned; Pushya Coronation Decision
ततः पुष्येऽभिषिञ्चस्व मनस्त्वरयतीव माम्।
श्वस्त्वाऽहमभिषेक्ष्यामि यौवराज्ये परन्तप।।2.4.22।।
tataḥ puṣye ’bhiṣiñcasva manas tvarayatīva mām | śvas tvām aham abhiṣekṣyāmi yauvarājye parantapa || 2.4.22 ||
অতএব পুষ্য নক্ষত্রেই তোমার অভিষেক হোক—আমার মন যেন আমাকে ত্বরিত করছে। হে পরন্তপ, আগামীকাল আমি তোমাকে যুবরাজ্য-পদে অভিষিক্ত করব।
My mind is hastening me saying,'Coronate Rama in the Pushya constellation itself'.O Slayer of enemies, I shall install you heir-apparent tomorrow.
