Este Madhuvana es herencia guardada desde los tiempos de mi padre y de mi abuelo, protegida por los mayores. Si el señor de los monos, Aṅgada, no estuviera complacido, no habría dañado mi Madhuvana. Oh Rāma, ilustre hijo de Kausalyā, firme en tu voto sagrado: ten confianza y sosiega tu corazón.
"If Angada, lord of the vanaras had not been happy, he would not have destroyed the Madhuvanam of my father's and my grandfather's time. O Rama, follower of righteous practices, Kausalya has an excellent son in you. Trust me.
