Que Saumitri, junto con Vibhīṣaṇa, sea liberado pronto de las flechas clavadas. Y entre los ejércitos de osos y vānaras—esos héroes que combaten con árboles—y cualesquiera otros que aquí luchen heridos y atravesados por saetas: que todos ellos, con empeño, sean atendidos y queden sanos.
"Let Vibheeshana and Saumithri be treated quickly. Let all the army of Bears and others who fought with trees, and the heroes be treated. Let all others who fought in the battlefield and wounded be also healed by your effort and make them happy."
