रावणवधदर्शनम्
Lament of the Rākṣasa Women upon Seeing Rāvaṇa Slain
ददृशुस्तामहाकायंमहावीर्यंमहाद्युतिम् ।रावणंनिहतम्भूमौनीलाञ्जनचयोपमम् ।।।।
dadṛśus tāṃ mahākāyaṃ mahāvīryaṃ mahādyutim | rāvaṇaṃ nihataṃ bhūmau nīlāñjanacayopamam ||
Они увидели Равану — исполинского телосложения, с безмерной силой и великим сиянием — поверженного и убитого на земле, словно груда тёмного камня анджана.
They looked at the gigantic body of Ravana of extraordinary valour, full of splendor, killed and lying like a heap of dark mountain on the ground.
Greatness without dharma ends in collapse; the fall of a radiant, mighty figure teaches the impermanence of power when severed from righteousness.
The mourners behold Rāvaṇa’s body lying dead on the battlefield.
The epic emphasizes discernment: recognizing that valor and splendor are not substitutes for dharma.
