50 passagesश्रीमद्वाल्मीकियरामायणे किष्किन्धाकाण्डे सप्तदशः सर्गः ॥४-१७॥ ततः शरेणाभिहतो रामेण रणकर्कशः। पपात सहसा वाली निकृत्त इव पादपः॥ १॥
In the revered Vālmīki Rāmāyaṇa, in the Kiṣkindhā Book, the seventeenth canto. Then Vāli, fierce in battle, struck by an arrow by Rāma, suddenly fell like a tree cut down. ॥ 1 ॥
स भूमौ न्यस्तसर्वाङ्गस्तप्तकाञ्चनभूषणः। अपतद् देवराजस्य मुक्तरश्मिरिव ध्वजः॥ २॥
He fell upon the ground with all his limbs laid out, adorned with ornaments of heated gold, like Indra’s banner fallen with its streamers released. ॥ 2 ॥
अस्मिन् निपतिते भूमौ हर्यृक्षाणां गणेश्वरे। नष्टचन्द्रमिव व्योम न व्यराजत मेदिनी॥ ३॥
When that lord of the monkey-and-bear hosts had fallen upon the ground, the earth did not shine, like a sky whose moon had been lost. ॥ 3 ॥
भूमौ निपतितस्यापि तस्य देहं महात्मनः। न श्रीर्जहाति न प्राणा न तेजो न पराक्रमः॥ ४॥
Even though that great-souled one’s body had fallen upon the ground, neither splendor, nor life-breaths, nor radiance, nor valor abandoned it. ॥ 4 ॥
शक्रदत्ता वरा माला काञ्चनी रत्नभूषिता। दधार हरिमुख्यस्य प्राणांस्तेजः श्रियं च सा॥ ५॥
That excellent golden garland, bestowed by Indra and adorned with jewels, sustained the chief of the monkeys’ life breaths, splendor, and prosperity.
