Condemnation of Ingratitude and Admonition of Sugriva
न नूनमिक्ष्वाकुवरस्य कार्मुकच्युतान् शरान्पश्यसि वज्र सन्निभान्।तत स्सुखं नाम निषेवसे सुखी।न रामकार्यं मनसाऽप्यवेक्षसे।।।।
na nūnam ikṣvāku-varasya kārmuka-cyutān śarān paśyasi vajra-sannibhān |
tataḥ sukhaṃ nāma niṣevase sukhī |
na rāma-kāryaṃ manasā ’py avekṣase ||
想必你并未真正见过那位伊克湿伐库族至杰者之弓所放、如金刚雷霆般的箭矢。故而你安坐享乐，无所畏惧，连心念也不顾罗摩之事。
As soon as Sugriva jumped up ,Ruma and other women-folk rose to their feet like the clusters of stars around the full-Moon in the sky.
