Auspicious Omens Arise for Sita
एतैर्निमित्तैरपरैश्च सुभ्रूः सम्बोधिता प्रागपि साधु सिद्धैः।वातातपक्लान्तमिव प्रणष्टं वर्षेण बीजं प्रतिसंजहर्ष।।5.29.6।।
etair nimittair aparaiś ca subhrūḥ sambodhitā prāg api sādhu siddhaiḥ |
vātātapaklāntam iva praṇaṣṭaṃ varṣeṇa bījaṃ pratisaṃjaharṣa ||5.29.6||
ان اور ایسے ہی دیگر مبارک شگونوں سے—جنہیں پہلے ہی کامل رشیوں نے نیک و سازگار ٹھہرایا تھا—خوش ابرو سیتا کو تسلی ملی اور اس کا ہرس پھر لوٹ آیا، جیسے ہوا اور دھوپ سے سوکھا ہوا بیج بارش پڑتے ہی پھر جی اٹھتا ہے۔
Reassured by such omens which augured well as tested by time, Sita, with beautiful eye-brows, and deep foresight experienced great joy, like a seed blighted by the wind and the Sun comes back to joyful life through a pleasing shower. (A foreteller is addressed as siddha in sanskrit dramas)
