Sita’s Lament amid Rākṣasī Threats
सा निःश्वसन्ती दुःखार्ता शोकोपहतचेतना।आर्ता व्यसृजदश्रूणि मैथिली विललाप च।।5.25.10।।
sā niḥśvasantī duḥkhārtā śokopahatacetanā |
ārtā vyasṛjad aśrūṇi maithilī vilalāpa ca ||5.25.10||
ため息をつき、苦しみに苛まれ、悲嘆に心を打ち砕かれたマイティリーは、嘆きのうちに涙をあふれさせ、声を上げて慟哭した。
The distressed Mythili, her consciousness drowned in grief, sighing, shed streams of tears.
It underscores compassion and the recognition of unjust suffering: dharma is contrasted with the cruelty that produces such grief.
Isolated in captivity, Sītā’s sorrow intensifies; she sighs, weeps, and begins to lament.
Emotional honesty coupled with endurance—grief is expressed without surrendering moral resolve.
