Verse 156 (दोहा/सोरठा)

सुनि दसकंठ रिसान अति तेहिं मन कीन्ह बिचार। राम दूत कर मरौं बरु यह खल रत मल भार।।56।।

suni dasakaṇṭha risāna ati tehiṃ mana kīnha bicāra | rāma dūta kari marauṃ baru yaha khala rata mala bhāra ||56||

闻此，十颈罗波那暴怒非常，心中盘算：“不如杀了罗摩的使者——这卑贱之徒，血污之累。”

Verse 157 (चौपाई)

अस कहि चला रचिसि मग माया। सर मंदिर बर बाग बनाया।। मारुतसुत देखा सुभ आश्रम। मुनिहि बूझि जल पियौं जाइ श्रम।। राच्छस कपट बेष तहँ सोहा। मायापति दूतहि चह मोहा।। जाइ पवनसुत नायउ माथा। लाग सो कहै राम गुन गाथा।। होत महा रन रावन रामहिं। जितहहिं राम न संसय या महिं।। इहाँ भएँ मैं देखेउँ भाई। ग्यान दृष्टि बल मोहि अधिकाई।। मागा जल तेहिं दीन्ह कमंडल। कह कपि नहिं अघाउँ थोरें जल।। सर मज्जन करि आतुर आवहु। दिच्छा देउँ ग्यान जेहिं पावहु।।

So saying, he went off and by magic contrived a lake, a shrine, and a fair garden along the way. The Wind-god’s son saw the lovely hermitage; asking the ‘sage’, he drank water to relieve his weariness. There a rākṣasa sat in a deceitful ascetic’s dress; the master of illusion sought to bewilder the messenger. Approaching, Hanuman bowed his head, and the fellow began to recite the tale of Rama’s virtues: “A mighty war shall be waged between Ravana and Rama; Rama will surely win—of this there is no doubt. Here I have beheld it, brother; the power of my eye of knowledge is great.” Hanuman asked for water; he gave his water-pot, but the monkey said, “A little water will not satisfy me. Bathe in the lake and come quickly; I will grant you initiation by which you shall attain knowledge.”

Verse 158 (दोहा/सोरठा)

सर पैठत कपि पद गहा मकरीं तब अकुलान। मारी सो धरि दिव्य तनु चली गगन चढ़ि जान।।57।।

sara paiṭhata kapi pada gahā makarīṃ taba akulāna | mārī so dhari divya tanu calī gagana caṛhi jāna ||57||

猴将踏入湖中，摩羯女（makarī）忽攫其足，使他受困；哈奴曼一击将其降伏。她遂现天女之形，凌空而去。

Verse 159 (चौपाई)

कपि तव दरस भइउँ निष्पापा। मिटा तात मुनिबर कर सापा।। मुनि न होइ यह निसिचर घोरा। मानहु सत्य बचन कपि मोरा।। अस कहि गई अपछरा जबहीं। निसिचर निकट गयउ कपि तबहीं।। कह कपि मुनि गुरदछिना लेहू। पाछें हमहि मंत्र तुम्ह देहू।। सिर लंगूर लपेटि पछारा। निज तनु प्रगटेसि मरती बारा।। राम राम कहि छाड़ेसि प्राना। सुनि मन हरषि चलेउ हनुमाना।। देखा सैल न औषध चीन्हा। सहसा कपि उपारि गिरि लीन्हा।। गहि गिरि निसि नभ धावत भयऊ। अवधपुरी उपर कपि गयऊ।।

“O Monkey, by thy sight I have become sinless; dear one, the great sage’s curse is removed.” “This is no sage—this is a dreadful rākṣasa; believe my words as true, O Monkey.” So speaking, the apsaras departed; and at once the monkey went near the rākṣasa. Said the monkey, “O sage, accept your teacher’s fee; afterwards grant me the mantra.” Winding his tail about the fellow’s head, he dashed him down; and as he died, the demon revealed his true body. Crying “Rama, Rama!” he gave up his life; hearing it, Hanuman rejoiced and went on. He saw the mountain but could not recognize the herb; instantly the monkey uprooted the whole peak. Grasping the mountain, he sped through the night sky, and went above Ayodhya.

Verse 160 (दोहा/सोरठा)

देखा भरत बिसाल अति निसिचर मन अनुमानि। बिनु फर सायक मारेउ चाप श्रवन लगि तानि।।58।।

dekhā bharata bisāla ati nisicara mana anumāni | binu phara sāyaka māreu cāpa śravana lagi tāni ||58||

婆罗多见他，心中断定有巨大的罗刹来犯，便引弓至耳，放出一支无镞之箭。

Verse 161 (चौपाई)

परेउ मुरुछि महि लागत सायक। सुमिरत राम राम रघुनायक।। सुनि प्रिय बचन भरत तब धाए। कपि समीप अति आतुर आए।। बिकल बिलोकि कीस उर लावा। जागत नहिं बहु भाँति जगावा।। मुख मलीन मन भए दुखारी। कहत बचन भरि लोचन बारी।। जेहिं बिधि राम बिमुख मोहि कीन्हा। तेहिं पुनि यह दारुन दुख दीन्हा।। जौं मोरें मन बच अरु काया। प्रीति राम पद कमल अमाया।। तौ कपि होउ बिगत श्रम सूला। जौं मो पर रघुपति अनुकूला।। सुनत बचन उठि बैठ कपीसा। कहि जय जयति कोसलाधीसा।।

Struck as though by an arrow, he fell senseless upon the ground, still repeating, “Rama, Rama—Lord of the Raghu line!” Hearing these dear words, Bharata ran; in great anxiety he came close to the monkey. Seeing him distraught, he clasped him to his breast; yet Hanuman did not wake though he tried in many ways. Bharata’s face grew pale and his heart was overwhelmed with grief; with tear-filled eyes he spoke: “In whatever manner Rama turned away from me, in that same manner He has again given me this dreadful sorrow. If in my mind, speech, and body there is pure love for Rama’s lotus-feet, then, O monkey, may your weariness and pain be removed—if the Lord of the Raghus is favorable to me.” On hearing this, the lord of monkeys rose and sat up, crying, “Victory, victory to the Lord of Kosala!”

Verse 162 (दोहा/सोरठा)

लीन्ह कपिहि उर लाइ पुलकित तनु लोचन सजल। प्रीति न हृदयँ समाइ सुमिरि राम रघुकुल तिलक।।59।।

līnh kapihi ura lāi pulakita tanu locana sajala | prīti na hṛdayã samāi sumiri rāma raghukula tilaka ||59||

他将那猴紧抱于胸，遍体战栗，双眼含泪。 忆念罗俱族宝冠之罗摩，爱意满溢，心中再也容纳不下。（59）

Verse 163 (चौपाई)

तात कुसल कहु सुखनिधान की। सहित अनुज अरु मातु जानकी।। कपि सब चरित समास बखाने। भए दुखी मन महुँ पछिताने।। अहह दैव मैं कत जग जायउँ। प्रभु के एकहु काज न आयउँ।। जानि कुअवसरु मन धरि धीरा। पुनि कपि सन बोले बलबीरा।। तात गहरु होइहि तोहि जाता। काजु नसाइहि होत प्रभाता।। चढ़ु मम सायक सैल समेता। पठवौं तोहि जहँ कृपानिकेता।। सुनि कपि मन उपजा अभिमाना। मोरें भार चलिहि किमि बाना।। राम प्रभाव बिचारि बहोरी। बंदि चरन कह कपि कर जोरी।।

“Dear one, tell me of the welfare of Rama, the treasury of bliss—together with His younger brother and Mother Janaki.” The monkey briefly recounted all that had happened; Bharata grew sorrowful and repented within his heart: “Alas, O fate—why did I come into the world? I have been of no use in even a single task of my Lord.” Recognizing the inopportune moment, he steadied his mind; then the mighty hero said again to the monkey: “Dear one, you will find the journey heavy; the work may be spoiled if dawn breaks. Mount my arrow—yes, with a mountain upon it—and I shall send you to Him who is the very abode of mercy.” Hearing this, pride arose in the monkey’s mind: “How could an arrow move under my weight?” But then, reflecting on Rama’s power, the monkey bowed at Bharata’s feet and spoke with joined hands.

Verse 164 (दोहा/सोरठा)

तव प्रताप उर राखि प्रभु जेहउँ नाथ तुरंत। अस कहि आयसु पाइ पद बंदि चलेउ हनुमंत।।60(क)।। भरत बाहु बल सील गुन प्रभु पद प्रीति अपार। मन महुँ जात सराहत पुनि पुनि पवनकुमार।।60(ख)।।

“主啊，我将你的荣耀珍藏于心，即刻便去我之主君处。” 如是说罢，蒙允之后，哈奴曼拜伏于婆罗多足下，遂即辞去。（60k） 行路之间，风神之子在心中反复称赞婆罗多之臂力、其高贵性情、诸般德行，以及他对主足无边无际的爱。（60kh）

Verse 165 (चौपाई)

उहाँ राम लछिमनहिं निहारी। बोले बचन मनुज अनुसारी।। अर्ध राति गइ कपि नहिं आयउ। राम उठाइ अनुज उर लायउ।। सकहु न दुखित देखि मोहि काऊ। बंधु सदा तव मृदुल सुभाऊ।। मम हित लागि तजेहु पितु माता। सहेहु बिपिन हिम आतप बाता।। सो अनुराग कहाँ अब भाई। उठहु न सुनि मम बच बिकलाई।। जौं जनतेउँ बन बंधु बिछोहू। पिता बचन मनतेउँ नहिं ओहू।। सुत बित नारि भवन परिवारा। होहिं जाहिं जग बारहिं बारा।। अस बिचारि जियँ जागहु ताता। मिलइ न जगत सहोदर भ्राता।। जथा पंख बिनु खग अति दीना। मनि बिनु फनि करिबर कर हीना।। अस मम जिवन बंधु बिनु तोही। जौं जड़ दैव जिआवै मोही।। जैहउँ अवध कवन मुहु लाई। नारि हेतु प्रिय भाइ गँवाई।। बरु अपजस सहतेउँ जग माहीं। नारि हानि बिसेष छति नाहीं।। अब अपलोकु सोकु सुत तोरा। सहिहि निठुर कठोर उर मोरा।। निज जननी के एक कुमारा। तात तासु तुम्ह प्रान अधारा।। सौंपेसि मोहि तुम्हहि गहि पानी। सब बिधि सुखद परम हित जानी।। उतरु काह दैहउँ तेहि जाई। उठि किन मोहि सिखावहु भाई।। बहु बिधि सिचत सोच बिमोचन। स्त्रवत सलिल राजिव दल लोचन।। उमा एक अखंड रघुराई। नर गति भगत कृपाल देखाई।।

There Rama, looking upon Lakshmana, spoke words suited to human tenderness. Half the night had passed and the monkey had not returned; Rama lifted His younger brother and drew him to His breast. “No one can bear to see me in sorrow—such is ever your gentle nature, brother. For my sake you abandoned father and mother; you endured in the forest cold, heat, and wind. Where is that affection now, brother? You do not rise even on hearing my distressed words. Had I known separation from my brother in the forest, I would not have obeyed my father’s command. Son, wealth, wife, house, and family come and go in this world again and again; but, dear one, awaken—think in your heart: a full brother is not found again in the world. As a bird is wretched without wings, as a serpent without its jewel, as an elephant without its trunk— so is my life without you, brother, if dull fate keeps me living. How shall I return to Ayodhya with what face—having lost my beloved brother for a woman’s sake? Better to endure ill-fame in the world; the loss of a woman is no special ruin. But then: other-worldly ruin, grief, and your mother’s bereavement—my hard, cruel heart could not endure it. You are your mother’s only son; dear one, you are the support of her life. She placed you in my hands, believing it in every way a source of happiness and the highest good. What answer shall I give her when I go there? Why do you not rise and instruct me, brother?” In many ways He sprinkled away grief; from His lotus-petal eyes water streamed. O Uma, here the undivided Lord of the Raghus displayed the human path and the compassionate way of a devotee.

Verse 166 (दोहा/सोरठा)

प्रभु प्रलाप सुनि कान बिकल भए बानर निकर। आइ गयउ हनुमान जिमि करुना महँ बीर रस।।61।।

闻主哀叹，群猴尽皆心中不安；而哈奴曼到来——如同悲悯之中涌起的英雄豪气。

Verse 167 (चौपाई)

हरषि राम भेंटेउ हनुमाना। अति कृतग्य प्रभु परम सुजाना।। तुरत बैद तब कीन्ह उपाई। उठि बैठे लछिमन हरषाई।। हृदयँ लाइ प्रभु भेंटेउ भ्राता। हरषे सकल भालु कपि ब्राता।। कपि पुनि बैद तहाँ पहुँचावा। जेहि बिधि तबहिं ताहि लइ आवा।। यह बृत्तांत दसानन सुनेऊ। अति बिषअद पुनि पुनि सिर धुनेऊ।। ब्याकुल कुंभकरन पहिं आवा। बिबिध जतन करि ताहि जगावा।। जागा निसिचर देखिअ कैसा। मानहुँ कालु देह धरि बैसा।। कुंभकरन बूझा कहु भाई। काहे तव मुख रहे सुखाई।। कथा कही सब तेहिं अभिमानी। जेहि प्रकार सीता हरि आनी।। तात कपिन्ह सब निसिचर मारे। महामहा जोधा संघारे।। दुर्मुख सुररिपु मनुज अहारी। भट अतिकाय अकंपन भारी।। अपर महोदर आदिक बीरा। परे समर महि सब रनधीरा।।

Rāma, rejoicing, embraced Hanumān; the Lord—supremely wise—was deeply grateful. At once the healer applied his remedy, and Lakṣmaṇa rose and sat up in delight. The Lord clasped his brother to His heart; all the bears and monkeys exulted. The monkey then brought the physician there, in the very manner he had fetched him at first. When Rāvaṇa heard this report, he fell into great dejection, again and again shaking his head. Restless, he went to Kumbhakarṇa and with many efforts roused him. When the rākṣasa awoke, what a sight he was—as though Death itself had taken a body and sat there. Kumbhakarṇa asked, 'Tell me, brother—why is your face so dried up?' That proud one told him the whole tale: how Sītā had been carried off, and how the monkeys had slain the rākṣasas and destroyed mighty champions—Durmukha, Suraripu, Manuja-ahārī, the warriors Atikāya and Akampana, and others like Mahodara—valiant and battle-steady, fallen on the field.

Verse 168 (दोहा/सोरठा)

闻十颈者之言，贡婆迦尔那悲叹曰： “劫夺世界之母（悉多）之后，那愚人竟还图谋自身之安乐！”

Verse 169 (चौपाई)

भल न कीन्ह तैं निसिचर नाहा। अब मोहि आइ जगाएहि काहा।। अजहूँ तात त्यागि अभिमाना। भजहु राम होइहि कल्याना।। हैं दससीस मनुज रघुनायक। जाके हनूमान से पायक।। अहह बंधु तैं कीन्हि खोटाई। प्रथमहिं मोहि न सुनाएहि आई।। कीन्हेहु प्रभू बिरोध तेहि देवक। सिव बिरंचि सुर जाके सेवक।। नारद मुनि मोहि ग्यान जो कहा। कहतेउँ तोहि समय निरबहा।। अब भरि अंक भेंटु मोहि भाई। लोचन सूफल करौ मैं जाई।। स्याम गात सरसीरुह लोचन। देखौं जाइ ताप त्रय मोचन।।

'You have done ill, O lord of demons; why have you come now to wake me? Even now, dear brother, abandon pride—worship Rāma and it shall be well with you. O ten-headed one, Raghunāyaka is but a man—yet one whose attendant is such as Hanumān! Alas, brother, you have committed a grievous fault; you did not tell me at the very start. You have opposed the Lord whom Śiva, Brahmā, and the gods themselves serve. The wisdom Nārada once imparted to me—I would have told you and fulfilled my duty in time. Now, brother, embrace me fully; make my eyes blessed as I go to behold Him—dark of limb, lotus-eyed, the remover of the threefold afflictions.'

Verse 170 (दोहा/सोरठा)

राम रूप गुन सुमिरत मगन भयउ छन एक। रावन मागेउ कोटि घट मद अरु महिष अनेक।।63।।

罗波那片刻沉入对罗摩形相与德行的忆念；旋即又索要亿万坛美酒，并命备下许多水牛。

Verse 171 (चौपाई)

Having eaten buffalo-meat and drunk strong liquor, he roared like a thunderbolt’s crash. Kumbhakarna, mad with pride and delighting in battle, left the fortress, taking no army with him. Seeing Vibhishan come before him, he fell at his feet and declared his own name. The younger brother lifted him up and clasped him to his breast; knowing him to be a devotee of Raghupati, his heart was pleased. “Brother, Ravana struck me with kicks though I spoke counsel of his highest good. In that remorse I have come to Raghupati; seeing me wretched, the Lord’s heart was moved. Hear me, my son: Ravana has fallen under the sway of Time—will he now accept the supreme instruction? Blessed, blessed—thrice blessed are you, Vibhishan; become, dear one, the true ornament of the Rakshasa race. You have made your family’s true honor shine forth; worship Rama, the ocean of glory and bliss.”

Verse 172 (दोहा/सोरठा)

बचन कर्म मन कपट तजि भजेहु राम रनधीर। जाहु न निज पर सूझ मोहि भयउँ कालबस बीर। 64।।

当弃口、身、意三业之诡诈；坚毅的战士啊，当礼敬罗摩。 莫图私利——英雄，我乃为时命所迫而来。

Verse 173 (चौपाई)

बंधु बचन सुनि चला बिभीषन। आयउ जहँ त्रैलोक बिभूषन।। नाथ भूधराकार सरीरा। कुंभकरन आवत रनधीरा।। एतना कपिन्ह सुना जब काना। किलकिलाइ धाए बलवाना।। लिए उठाइ बिटप अरु भूधर। कटकटाइ डारहिं ता ऊपर।। कोटि कोटि गिरि सिखर प्रहारा। करहिं भालु कपि एक एक बारा।। मुर् यो न मन तनु टर् यो न टार् यो। जिमि गज अर्क फलनि को मार्यो।। तब मारुतसुत मुठिका हन्यो। पर् यो धरनि ब्याकुल सिर धुन्यो।। पुनि उठि तेहिं मारेउ हनुमंता। घुर्मित भूतल परेउ तुरंता।। पुनि नल नीलहि अवनि पछारेसि। जहँ तहँ पटकि पटकि भट डारेसि।। चली बलीमुख सेन पराई। अति भय त्रसित न कोउ समुहाई।।

Hearing his brother’s words, Vibhishan set out and came to where stood Rama, the ornament of the three worlds. “Lord, Kumbhakarna—huge as a mountain—advances, steadfast in battle.” When the monkeys heard so much with their ears, they leapt with shrill cries and charged in their strength. Uprooting trees and hills, gnashing their teeth, they hurled them upon him. They struck him with countless mountain-peaks; bears and monkeys smote him again and again. Yet his mind did not reel, his body did not stir nor could it be made to yield—like an elephant struck by mere arka-fruit. Then the Wind’s son dealt him a fist-blow; he fell upon the ground, distressed, shaking his head. Rising again, he was struck by Hanuman once more and at once rolled, whirling, upon the earth. Again he felled Nala and Nila to the ground, and everywhere he flung and smashed the warriors. The mighty-faced enemy host pressed on; terror-stricken, none could stand together.

Verse 174 (दोहा/सोरठा)

अंगदादि कपि मुरुछित करि समेत सुग्रीव। काँख दाबि कपिराज कहुँ चला अमित बल सींव।।65।।

aṅgadādi kapi muruchita kari sameta sugrīva | kāṁkha dābi kapi-rāja kahuṁ calā amita bala sīṁva || 65 ||

他击得安伽陀等群猿昏绝，又擒住须伽利婆； 以腋下夹住猿王，那力无量者阔步而去。

Verse 175 (चौपाई)

उमा करत रघुपति नरलीला। खेलत गरुड़ जिमि अहिगन मीला।। भृकुटि भंग जो कालहि खाई। ताहि कि सोहइ ऐसि लराई।। जग पावनि कीरति बिस्तरिहहिं। गाइ गाइ भवनिधि नर तरिहहिं।। मुरुछा गइ मारुतसुत जागा। सुग्रीवहि तब खोजन लागा।। सुग्रीवहु कै मुरुछा बीती। निबुक गयउ तेहि मृतक प्रतीती।। काटेसि दसन नासिका काना। गरजि अकास चलउ तेहिं जाना।। गहेउ चरन गहि भूमि पछारा। अति लाघवँ उठि पुनि तेहि मारा।। पुनि आयसु प्रभु पहिं बलवाना। जयति जयति जय कृपानिधाना।। नाक कान काटे जियँ जानी। फिरा क्रोध करि भइ मन ग्लानी।। सहज भीम पुनि बिनु श्रुति नासा। देखत कपि दल उपजी त्रासा।।

O Uma, Raghupati was enacting his human-play—like Garuda sporting amid a swarm of serpents. He whose mere frown can swallow up Time itself—does such a battle befit him? His world-purifying fame will spread; singing it again and again, men shall cross the ocean of existence. Hanuman’s swoon passed and he awoke; then he began to search for Sugriva. Sugriva too recovered from his faint; his chin had fallen, so that he seemed as one dead. He tore away teeth, nose, and ears; roaring, he moved there through the sky. Seizing him by the feet he dashed him to the ground; with great agility he rose and struck him again. Then the mighty one came before the Lord for orders: “Victory, victory, victory to the treasury of compassion!” Knowing in his heart that his nose and ears were cut off, he turned back in wrath—and his mind grew heavy with shame. Terrible by nature, now without ears and nose, he was seen and panic arose in the monkey host.

Verse 176 (दोहा/सोरठा)

जय जय जय रघुबंस मनि धाए कपि दै हूह। एकहि बार तासु पर छाड़ेन्हि गिरि तरु जूह।।66।।

jaya jaya jaya raghubaṃsa mani dhāe kapi dai hūha | ekahi bāra tāsu para chāṛhenhi giri taru jūha ||66||

“胜利！胜利！胜利归于罗伽族之宝！”——群猿如是高呼，奋然冲杀；一齐猛攻之下，堆叠抛掷山岳与巨木，尽向他砸去。

Verse 177 (चौपाई)

कुंभकरन रन रंग बिरुद्धा। सन्मुख चला काल जनु क्रुद्धा।। कोटि कोटि कपि धरि धरि खाई। जनु टीड़ी गिरि गुहाँ समाई।। कोटिन्ह गहि सरीर सन मर्दा। कोटिन्ह मीजि मिलव महि गर्दा।। मुख नासा श्रवनन्हि कीं बाटा। निसरि पराहिं भालु कपि ठाटा।। रन मद मत्त निसाचर दर्पा। बिस्व ग्रसिहि जनु एहि बिधि अर्पा।। मुरे सुभट सब फिरहिं न फेरे। सूझ न नयन सुनहिं नहिं टेरे।। कुंभकरन कपि फौज बिडारी। सुनि धाई रजनीचर धारी।। देखि राम बिकल कटकाई। रिपु अनीक नाना बिधि आई।।

昆婆迦那在战阵的凶烈色相中直冲而来，恰似暴怒的阎罗亲临。他一把抓起群猴，成百万地吞噬，仿佛蝗群钻入山洞无影无踪；又攫住许多，挤压在胸前碾碎；又践踏许多，尘土漫天，遮蔽大地。口、鼻、耳都成了通道，熊与猴从中迸出，成群逃散。那罗刹战醉骄狂，竟似要如此吞尽世界。 倒下的勇将们迷迷茫茫地踉跄前行，不复回顾——眼不见物，耳不闻呼。昆婆迦那击碎猴军；闻此声响，披甲的夜行罗刹蜂拥而至。见罗摩军受困，敌方诸营又以多种阵势齐来。

Verse 178 (दोहा/सोरठा)

सुनु सुग्रीव बिभीषन अनुज सँभारेहु सैन। मैं देखउँ खल बल दलहि बोले राजिवनैन।।67।।

sunu sugrīva bibhīṣana anuj saṃbhārehu sain | maiṃ dekhauṃ khala bala dalahi bole rājivanaina ||67||

“须听我言，须伽利婆——毗毗沙那——以及你，我的幼弟：稳住军心，整肃诸队。我将亲自对付那恶敌与其兵势。”莲目之主如是宣言。

Verse 179 (चौपाई)

कर सारंग साजि कटि भाथा। अरि दल दलन चले रघुनाथा।। प्रथम कीन्ह प्रभु धनुष टँकोरा। रिपु दल बधिर भयउ सुनि सोरा।। सत्यसंध छाँड़े सर लच्छा। कालसर्प जनु चले सपच्छा।। जहँ तहँ चले बिपुल नाराचा। लगे कटन भट बिकट पिसाचा।। कटहिं चरन उर सिर भुजदंडा। बहुतक बीर होहिं सत खंडा।। घुर्मि घुर्मि घायल महि परहीं। उठि संभारि सुभट पुनि लरहीं।। लागत बान जलद जिमि गाजहीं। बहुतक देखी कठिन सर भाजहिं।। रुंड प्रचंड मुंड बिनु धावहिं। धरु धरु मारू मारु धुनि गावहिं।।

主挽弓在手，箭囊系腰，罗俱之主迈步前行，要摧折敌阵。先令神弓轰然作响；那声如雷，敌军闻之，恍若耳聋。守誓不移，连发连放——如阎罗之翼蛇被放出一般。铁锋劲矢四方飞舞，斩断那可怖的罗刹勇士。足、胸、首、臂纷纷离断；多少豪杰被裂作百段。中箭者踉跄倒地，旋即强自支撑，又复鏖战。箭到之处，吼声如雷云轰鸣；见那不息的箭雨，许多便惊逃。无首之躯狂奔乱走，“擒住！擒住！杀！杀！”的惨厉呼号汇成可怖的合声。

Verse 180 (दोहा/सोरठा)

छन महुँ प्रभु के सायकन्हि काटे बिकट पिसाच। पुनि रघुबीर निषंग महुँ प्रबिसे सब नाराच।।68।।

chana mahũ prabhu ke sāyakanhi kāṭe bikaṭa pisāca | puni raghubīra niṣaṅga mahũ prabise saba nārāca ||68||

顷刻之间，主的箭矢便斩落那凶猛的罗刹战士；而后，所有铁锋之箭又尽数归入罗俱勇者的箭囊。

Verse 181 (दोहा/सोरठा)

गिरिजा जासु नाम जपि मुनि काटहिं भव पास। सो कि बंध तर आवइ ब्यापक बिस्व निवास।।73।।

girijā jāsu nāma japi muni kāṭahiṁ bhava pāsa | so ki bandha tara āvai byāpaka bisva nivāsa ||73||

噢，吉丽阇啊——圣贤但称诵其圣名，便能割断轮回（saṁsāra）之绳索；那遍满一切、内住于宇宙之主，怎会受缚，又何须“渡越”轮回？

Verse 182 (चौपाई)

चरित राम के सगुन भवानी। तर्कि न जाहिं बुद्धि बल बानी।। अस बिचारि जे तग्य बिरागी। रामहि भजहिं तर्क सब त्यागी।। ब्याकुल कटकु कीन्ह घननादा। पुनि भा प्रगट कहइ दुर्बादा।। जामवंत कह खल रहु ठाढ़ा। सुनि करि ताहि क्रोध अति बाढ़ा।। बूढ़ जानि सठ छाँड़ेउँ तोही। लागेसि अधम पचारै मोही।। अस कहि तरल त्रिसूल चलायो। जामवंत कर गहि सोइ धायो।। मारिसि मेघनाद कै छाती। परा भूमि घुर्मित सुरघाती।। पुनि रिसान गहि चरन फिरायौ। महि पछारि निज बल देखरायो।। बर प्रसाद सो मरइ न मारा। तब गहि पद लंका पर डारा।। इहाँ देवरिषि गरुड़ पठायो। राम समीप सपदि सो आयो।।

噢，婆伐尼啊，罗摩在显现身中的行迹，非推理所能测，亦非智力与言语之力所能尽。如此思惟，真离欲的出家圣者便礼敬罗摩，舍弃一切争辩。 此时军阵轰然大乱，喧声如雷；梅格那达再度现身，口出狂悖之言。阇摩婆梵道：“恶徒，站住！”闻此，他怒火更炽：“念你年老，我曾饶你；如今这卑劣之辈竟来挑衅！” 说罢，那莽者掷出三叉戟；阇摩婆梵徒手接住，纵身向前，一击中其胸膛；“弑神者”踉跄倒地。梅格那达复又暴怒，抓住阇摩婆梵双足，旋转抡舞，猛掷于地以示其力。然因宿福之赐，他既不可被杀，亦非寻常手段所能杀；于是他又抓起阇摩婆梵，抛向楞迦城墙。 于是天界圣仙召来迦楼罗，迦楼罗即刻飞临罗摩身边。

Verse 183 (दोहा/सोरठा)

खगपति सब धरि खाए माया नाग बरूथ। माया बिगत भए सब हरषे बानर जूथ। 74(क)।। गहि गिरि पादप उपल नख धाए कीस रिसाइ। चले तमीचर बिकलतर गढ़ पर चढ़े पराइ।।74(ख)।।

迦楼罗——鸟中王——攫住并吞噬那由幻术化成的“蛇缚”军阵。幻相既灭，群猴尽皆欢喜。 群猴怒起，扛起山岳、树木与巨石冲杀；罗刹更添迷乱，纷纷逃窜，攀上城堡。

梅格那达苏醒，见到父王，羞惭入骨；立刻入山洞，心中决意修行一场祭祀，使自己无敌不败。 毗毗沙那沉思进言：“请听我言，广大施恩、威力无量之主。梅格那达正在行一场污秽的邪祭——这幻术之恶魁，常令诸天受苦。若让他完成，便得其所求；到那时，主啊，他将再难被征服。” 罗俱主闻之大悦，对安伽陀等群猴道：“你们都随罗什曼那前去，毁掉那祭祀。罗什曼那，你须在那里击杀他——诸天见此，必大解忧怖。弟啊，当以力、智与权谋，使那罗刹疲敝而亡。” “阇摩婆梵、须伽利婆与毗毗沙那——你们三人留守军中。”罗俱勇者下令已毕，紧束腰间箭囊，整备神弓。心持自身威严，那坚毅战士以雷云般低沉之声誓言：“若我今日不杀此贼而归，便不配称罗俱主之仆。纵使正法的商羯罗相助于他，我亦必斩之——我以罗俱勇者为誓！”
