अयोध्यावासिजनानुरागः
The People and Brahmins Follow Rama toward Exile
अनुगन्तुमशक्ता स्त्वां मूलैरुद्धतवेगिनः।उन्नता वायुवेगेन विक्रोशन्तीव पादपाः।।।।
anugantum aśaktās tvāṁ mūlair uddhataveginaḥ | unnatā vāyuvegena vikrośantīva pādapāḥ ||
Los árboles, alzados y empujados por la fuerza del viento, parecen querer seguirte; pero, atados a sus raíces e incapaces de ir, dan la impresión de clamar.
Although the trees uplifted by the speed of the wind, intend to follow you, their movement is stalled by their roots. Unable, they appear to be weeping.
