50 passagesअथ तस्मिन् निमित्तानि दृष्ट्वा लक्ष्मणपूर्वजः। सुग्रीवं सम्परिष्वज्य रामो वचनमब्रवीत्॥ १॥
Then, having seen those omens there, Rāma, the elder brother of Lakṣmaṇa, embracing Sugrīva closely, spoke these words.
असम्मन्त्र्य मया सार्धं तदिदं साहसं कृतम्। एवं साहसयुक्तानि न कुर्वन्ति जनेश्वराः॥ २॥
Without consulting me, this rash act has been done. Lords of men do not do deeds attended by such rashness.
संशये स्थाप्य मां चेदं बलं चेमं विभीषणम्। कष्टं कृतमिदं वीर साहसं साहसप्रिय॥ ३॥
“Having placed me, this army, and this Vibhīṣaṇa in danger, a grievous thing has been done—this rash act, O hero, lover of rash deeds. ॥3॥” The form “साहसप्रिय” literally means “one who delights in daring,” and may be an admonitory address.
इदानीं मा कृथा वीर एवंविधमरिंदम। त्वयि किंचित्समापन्ने किं कार्यं सीतया मम॥ ४॥
Now, hero, do not do such a thing, O crusher of foes. If anything should befall you, what would I have to do with Sītā?
भरतेन महाबाहो लक्ष्मणेन यवीयसा। शत्रुघ्नेन च शत्रुघ्न स्वशरीरेण वा पुनः॥ ५॥
[The task could be undertaken] by Bharata, O mighty-armed one, by the younger Lakṣmaṇa, and by Śatrughna, O Śatrughna—or again by my own body.
