तवादर्शनजश्शोको भूयो मां परितापयेत्।दुःखाद्दुःखपराभूतां दुर्गतां दुःखभागिनीम्।।।।
śailāmbudanikāśānāṁ laṅkāmalayasānuṣu |
nardatāṁ kapimukhyānām acirāc chroṣyasi svanam ||
Before long you will hear the roar of the foremost monkey-leaders—like rainclouds upon mountains—resounding on the slopes of Laṅkā’s Malaya range.
'I am an unfortunate one, afflicted by sorrow and tormented (by demons). If I am notable to see you I will be lamenting in grief.
Righteous aims inspire collective resolve: dharma advances when leaders rally others with truthful confidence and shared purpose.
The verse anticipates the arrival and war-cry of the vānara commanders on Laṅkā’s mountainous terrain.
Leadership and morale—organized strength directed toward a just cause.
