33 passagesश्रीमद्वाल्मीकियरामायणे अरण्यकाण्डे एकषष्ठितमः सर्गः ॥३-६१॥ दृष्ट्वाऽऽश्रमपदं शून्यं रामो दशरथात्मजः। रहितां पर्णशालां च प्रविद्धान्यासनानि च॥ १॥
In the revered Vālmīki Rāmāyaṇa, in the Araṇya Kāṇḍa, this is the sixty-first canto. Having seen the hermitage-ground empty, Rāma, the son of Daśaratha, and also the leaf-hut devoid, and the seats scattered about...
अदृष्ट्वा तत्र वैदेहीं संनिरीक्ष्य च सर्वशः। उवाच रामः प्राक्रुश्य प्रगृह्य रुचिरौ भुजौ॥ २॥
Not seeing Vaidehī there, and examining everything all around, Rāma spoke, crying out and raising his beautiful arms.
क्व नु लक्ष्मण वैदेही कं वा देशमितो गता। केनाहृता वा सौमित्रे भक्षिता केन वा प्रिया॥ ३॥
“Where, then, O Lakṣmaṇa, is Vaidehī? To what region has she gone from here? By whom was she carried away—or, O Saumitri, by whom was my beloved devoured?”
वृक्षेणावार्य यदि मां सीते हसितुमिच्छसि। अलं ते हसितेनाद्य मां भजस्व सुदुःखितम्॥ ४॥
If, Sītā, you wish to laugh at me while hiding behind a tree, enough of your laughter today; turn to me, who am exceedingly distressed. ॥4॥ The precise force of hiding behind a tree and laughing at Rāma is stated in the transmitted wording; it may also suggest that he is addressing Sītā as though she were playfully concealed, without establishing that she is actually present.
यैः परिक्रीडसे सीते विश्वस्तैर्मृगपोतकैः। एते हीनास्त्वया सौम्ये ध्यायन्त्यस्राविलेक्षणाः॥ ५॥
O Sītā, with these trusting fawns with whom you used to play all around—these, deprived of you, O gentle one, gaze pensively, their eyes blurred with tears.
