Shloka 4.7.20

काकुत्स्थस्य शोकनिग्रहः—सुग्रीवसान्त्वनम् (Rama’s Grief Restrained—Sugriva’s Consolation)

मया च यदनुष्ठेयं विस्रब्धेन तदुच्यताम्।वर्षास्विव च सुक्षेत्रे सर्वं सम्पद्यते तव।।

mayā ca yad anuṣṭheyaṃ visrabdhena tad ucyatām | varṣāsu iva ca sukṣetre sarvaṃ sampadyate tava ||

And whatever is to be done by me—say it without hesitation. For your aims will surely succeed, like seed in fertile soil when the rains arrive in season.

'Now tell me about my duty without any hesitation. I assure you that your desire will be fulfilled, just as seeds sown in a fertile land with timely rains bear fruit.
