27 passagesश्रीमद्वाल्मीकियरामायणे अयोध्याकाण्डे षडशीतितमः सर्गः ॥२-८६॥ आचचक्षे अथ सद्भावम् लक्ष्मणस्य महात्मनः । भरताय अप्रमेयाय गुहो गहन गोचरः ॥२-८६-१॥
In the revered Valmiki Ramayana, in the Ayodhya Kanda, this is the eighty-sixth sarga. Then Guha, profound in understanding, described to the immeasurable Bharata the true disposition of the great-souled Lakshmana.
तम् जाग्रतम् गुणैर् युक्तम् वर चाप इषु धारिणम् । भ्रातृ गुप्त्य् अर्थम् अत्यन्तम् अहम् लक्ष्मणम् अब्रवम् ॥२-८६-२॥
I spoke to that Lakshmana who was awake, endowed with virtues, bearing an excellent bow and arrows, and wholly intent on guarding his brother.
इयम् तात सुखा शय्या त्वद् अर्थम् उपकल्पिता । प्रत्याश्वसिहि शेष्व अस्याम् सुखम् राघव नन्दन ॥२-८६-३॥
This comfortable bed, dear one, has been prepared for your sake. Take comfort and sleep happily in it, O Rāghava, O joy of [your family].
उचितो अयम् जनः सर्वे दुह्खानाम् त्वम् सुख उचितः । धर्म आत्ममः तस्य गुप्त्य् अर्थम् जागरिष्यामहे वयम् ॥२-८६-४॥
The transmitted wording of the first sentence is grammatically uncertain: the forms ‘उचितो अयम् जनः सर्वे दुह्खानाम्’ literally contain ‘this person/people, suitable, of all sufferings.’ In context, the intended sense is likely: ‘This people is accustomed to every hardship, whereas you are suited for happiness.’ The transmitted sequence ‘धर्म आत्ममः’ literally suggests ‘righteous self’ or ‘one whose nature is dharma’; conditionally understood as referring to him, it continues: ‘For his protection we shall keep watch.’
न हि रामात् प्रियतरो मम अस्ति भुवि कश्चन । मा उत्सुको भूर् ब्रवीम्य् एतद् अप्य् असत्यम् तव अग्रतः ॥२-८६-५॥
For there is no one dearer to me than Rama anywhere on earth. Do not be anxious; what I say to you here is not false, even in your presence.
