26 passagesश्रीमद्वाल्मीकियरामायणे अरण्यकाण्डे द्वाविंशः सर्गः ॥३-२२॥ एवमाधर्षितः शूरः शूर्पणख्या खरस्ततः। उवाच रक्षसां मध्ये खरः खरतरं वचः॥ १॥
In the glorious Vālmīki Rāmāyaṇa, in the Araṇya-kāṇḍa, the twenty-second canto, ॥3-22॥. Thus insulted by Śūrpaṇakhā, the heroic Khara then spoke among the rākṣasas a very harsh speech. ॥1॥
तवापमानप्रभवः क्रोधोऽयमतुलो मम। न शक्यते धारयितुं लवणाम्भ इवोल्बणम्॥ २॥
This immeasurable anger of mine has arisen from your insult. It cannot be held back, like violently turbulent salt water. ॥2॥
न रामं गणये वीर्यान्मानुषं क्षीणजीवितम्। आत्मदुश्चरितैः प्राणान् हतो योऽद्य विमोक्ष्यते॥ ३॥
I do not reckon Rāma—a human whose life is nearly exhausted—as formidable in prowess. Slain by his own evil deeds, he will today relinquish his life. The transmitted wording “हतो ... विमोक्ष्यते” literally says “slain ... will be released”; the precise relation between these forms is somewhat uncertain, but the certain sense is that Rāma will lose his life today. ॥3॥
बाष्पः संधार्यतामेष सम्भ्रमश्च विमुच्यताम्। अहं रामं सह भ्रात्रा नयामि यमसादनम्॥ ४॥
Let this tearfulness be restrained, and let agitation be abandoned. I shall take Rāma, together with his brother, to the abode of Yama. ॥4॥
परश्वधहतस्याद्य मन्दप्राणस्य भूतले। रामस्य रुधिरं रक्तमुष्णं पास्यसि राक्षसि॥ ५॥
Today, on the ground, you shall drink the hot blood of Rama, whose life-breath is faint, after he has been struck down by a battle-axe, O female demon.
