在那荒林之中,罗摩望见成百的树木,花开于梢,藤蔓缠身;有的被大象长鼻压弯,有的因群猴而更显光彩,许多又因成群欢腾之鸟的啼鸣而回响不绝。
Rama saw hundreds of trees crushed by the trunks of elephants and by monkeys. He saw some trees echoing with notes of hundreds of intoxicated birds. He saw tree tops coiled with creepers in full bloom.
As a repeated/overlapping verse, it reinforces the dharmic theme of attentive, non-disruptive passage through nature—recognizing the forest’s vitality without asserting domination.

Composed awareness: Rāma’s steady observation amid wilderness signals self-control and readiness without fear-driven aggression.
