सीताया रावणं प्रति धर्मोपदेशः
Sita’s Dharmic Admonition to Ravana
क्षिप्रं तव स नाथो मे रामः सौमित्रिणा सह।।।।तोयमल्पमिवादित्यः प्राणानादास्यते शरैः।
kṣipraṃ tava sa nātho me rāmaḥ saumitriṇā saha |
toyam alpam ivādityaḥ prāṇān ādāsyate śaraiḥ ||
Chẳng bao lâu, chúa tể của ta là Rāma, cùng Saumitrī, sẽ dùng mũi tên đoạt lấy mạng ngươi—như mặt trời mau chóng hút cạn chút nước nhỏ.
"The wives of others will insult an evil-minded man who is not satisfied with his own wives, is fickle-minded and has no control over his senses.
Dharma is protective and decisive: when violated, righteous action (punishment of wrongdoing) follows without delay.
Sītā foretells Rāma’s swift vengeance and uses a nature simile (sun evaporating water) to stress inevitability.
Confidence in dharma and in Rāma’s righteous power.
