50 passagesतत् कृतेन मया प्राप्तम् रथ चर्या कृतम् सुखम् । आशम्से त्वत् कृतेन अहम् वन वास कृतम् सुखम् ॥२-५२-५१॥
By that act of yours, I have obtained the comfort produced by riding in the chariot; I hope that, by your act, I shall obtain the comfort produced by dwelling in the forest.
प्रसीद इच्चामि ते अरण्ये भवितुम् प्रत्यनन्तरः । प्रीत्या अभिहितम् इच्चामि भव मे पत्यनन्तरः ॥२-५२-५२॥
Be gracious; I wish to be in the forest, following close behind you. What has been spoken by me out of affection, I wish that you do it; be one who follows her husband close behind me.
इमे चापि हया वीर यदि ते वनवासिनः । परिचर्याम् करिष्यन्ति प्राप्स्यन्ति परमाम् गतिम् ॥२-५२-५३॥
And these horses too, O hero, if they become forest-dwellers and render service to you, will attain the highest destination.
तव शुश्रूषणम् मूर्ध्ना करिष्यामि वने वसन् । अयोध्याम् देव लोकम् वा सर्वथा प्रजहाम्य् अहम् ॥२-५२-५४॥
I will perform your service with my head, while dwelling in the forest. I entirely abandon Ayodhyā—or the world of the gods.
न हि शक्या प्रवेष्टुम् सा मया अयोध्या त्वया विना । राज धानी महा इन्द्रस्य यथा दुष्कृत कर्मणा ॥२-५२-५५॥
For I cannot enter that Ayodhya without you, just as the capital of great Indra cannot be entered by one whose deeds are evil. The final comparison is somewhat elliptical in the transmitted wording: दुष्कृतकर्मणा literally means “by an evil deed” or “by one of evil deeds”; here it is understood contextually as “by an evil-doer.”
