सप्तपञ्चाशः सर्गः — Hanumān’s Return, Roar of Success, and the Announcement “Sītā Seen”

तार्क्ष्यायमाणो गगने बभासे वायुनन्दनः।दारयन्मेघबृन्दानि निष्पतंश्च पुनः पुनः।।।।नदन्नादेन महता मेघस्वनमहास्वनः।

tārkṣyāyamāṇō gaganē babhāsē vāyunandanaḥ | dārayan mēghabṛndāni niṣpataṁś ca punaḥ punaḥ || nadannādēna mahatā mēghasvana-mahāsvanaḥ ||

The son of the Wind shone in the sky like Garuḍa, cleaving through clusters of clouds—vanishing and reappearing again and again—while roaring with a mighty sound like thunderclouds.

As he made his way through flakes of clouds, again and again appearing and disappearing, Hanuman the delight of the Wind-god shone in the sky roaring like a thundering cloud. He looked like Garuda.

H
Hanumān
V
Vāyu (Wind-god)
G
Garuḍa (Tārkṣya)
M
Megha (clouds)

Courage aligned with purpose: power is depicted as disciplined force used for a righteous mission, not for harm or vanity.

During the return flight, Hanumān cuts through clouds, repeatedly appearing and disappearing, his roar echoing like thunder.

Fearlessness (abhaya) and confidence: his Garuḍa-like radiance and thunderous presence show unshaken resolve.
