अयोध्याकाण्डम्/सर्गः_१२2.12.p03008

Sanskrit · 2.12.p03008

अनर्थभावेऽर्थपरे नृशंसे ममानुतापाय निवेशितासि। किमप्रियं पश्यसि मन्निमित्तं हितानुकारिण्यथवापि रामे॥ १०१॥

English · Meaning

You who are intent on harm and on your own advantage, cruel one—you have been placed here to cause me remorse. What unpleasant thing do you see, on my account, in Rama, who acts for your welfare?

2.12.p030081 / 14
अयोध्याकाण्डम्/सर्गः_१२2.12.p03009

Sanskrit · 2.12.p03009

परित्यजेयुः पितरोऽपि पुत्रान् भार्याः पतींश्चापि कृतानुरागाः। कृत्स्नं हि सर्वं कुपितं जगत् स्याद् दृष्ट्वैव रामं व्यसने निमग्नम्॥ १०२॥

English · Meaning

Even fathers would abandon their sons, and wives their husbands, although they had formed affection for them. Indeed, the whole world would become angry merely upon seeing Rama immersed in calamity.

2.12.p030092 / 14
अयोध्याकाण्डम्/सर्गः_१२2.12.p03010

Sanskrit · 2.12.p03010

अहं पुनर्देवकुमाररूप- मलंकृतं तं सुतमाव्रजन्तम्। नन्दामि पश्यन्निव दर्शनेन भवामि दृष्ट्वैव पुनर्युवेव॥ १०३॥

English · Meaning

I rejoice again when I see that son of mine approaching, adorned with the appearance of a divine prince, as though I were beholding him; merely seeing him makes me young again, as it were.

2.12.p030103 / 14
अयोध्याकाण्डम्/सर्गः_१२2.12.p03011

Sanskrit · 2.12.p03011

विना हि सूर्येण भवेत् प्रवृत्ति- रवर्षता वज्रधरेण वापि। रामं तु गच्छन्तमितः समीक्ष्य जीवेन्न कश्चित्त्विति चेतना मे॥ १०४॥

English · Meaning

The transmitted first sentence is grammatically uncertain as supplied: literally, it says, “Without the sun there could be activity …,” followed by the unresolved form रवर्षता. If that sequence represents प्रवृत्तिर्न वर्षता, the conditional sense is, “Without the sun, activity would not occur, nor without the rain-bearing [Indra].” But seeing Rama departing from here, I have the conviction that no one could live.

2.12.p030114 / 14
अयोध्याकाण्डम्/सर्गः_१२2.12.p03012

Sanskrit · 2.12.p03012

विनाशकामामहिताममित्रा- मावासयं मृत्युमिवात्मनस्त्वाम्। चिरं बताङ्केन धृतासि सर्पी महाविषा तेन हतोऽस्मि मोहात्॥ १०५॥

English · Meaning

I harbored you—wishing destruction, harmful, an enemy—as though you were death for myself. Alas, you were long held upon my lap, a serpent of great poison; through that, in delusion, I am slain.

2.12.p030125 / 14
