4.6.1
पुनरेवाब्रवीत् प्रीतो राघवं रघुनन्दनम्।
अयमाख्याति ते राम सचिवो मन्त्रिसत्तमः ॥ ४.६.१ ॥
Again, pleased, he spoke to Rāghava, the delight of the Raghus: "Rāma, this, your best of counsellors, declares to you."
4.6.2
हनुमान् यन्निमित्तं त्वं निर्जनं वनमागतः।
लक्ष्मणेन सह भ्रात्रा वसतश्च वने तव ॥ ४.६.२ ॥
Hanumān: "For what reason have you come to this lonely forest, together with your brother Lakṣmaṇa, and dwell in the forest?"
4.6.3
रक्षसापहृता भार्या मैथिली जनकात्मजा।
त्वया वियुक्ता रुदती लक्ष्मणेन च धीमता ॥ ४.६.३ ॥
Your wife, the Maithilī, daughter of Janaka, carried off by a rākṣasa, separated from you and from the wise Lakṣmaṇa, weeps.
4.6.4
अन्तरं प्रेप्सुना तेन हत्वा गृध्रं जटायुषम्।
भार्यावियोगजं दुःखं प्रापितस्तेन रक्षसा ॥ ४.६.४ ॥
Seeking an opportunity, he slew the vulture Jaṭāyu; by that rākṣasa you were brought to the sorrow born of separation from your wife.

भार्यावियोगजं दुःखं नचिरात् त्वं विमोक्ष्यसे।
अहं तामानयिष्यामि नष्टां वेदश्रुतीमिव ॥ ४.६.५ ॥
Before long you will be freed from this sorrow born of separation from your wife. I will bring her back, as one recovers the lost Vedic revelation.
4.6.6
रसातले वा वर्तन्तीं वर्तन्तीं वा नभस्तले।
अहमानीय दास्यामि तव भार्यामरिंदम ॥ ४.६.६ ॥
Whether she is in the nether world or dwelling in the sky, I will bring her and deliver your wife to you, O subduer of foes!
4.6.7
इदं तथ्यं मम वचस्त्वमवेहि च राघव।
न शक्या सा जरयितुमपि सेन्द्रैः सुरासुरैः ॥ ४.६.७ ॥
Hear this true word of mine, Rāghava: not even the gods and demons together with Indra can overpower her.
4.6.8
तव भार्या महाबाहो भक्ष्यं विषकृतं यथा।
त्यज शोकं महाबाहो तां कान्तामानयामि ते ॥ ४.६.८ ॥
Your wife is like poisoned food, O mighty-armed one. Give up your grief, O mighty-armed one; I will bring that beloved one to you.
4.6.9
अनुमानात् तु जानामि मैथिली सा न संशयः।
ह्रियमाणा मया दृष्टा रक्षसा रौद्रकर्मणा ॥ ४.६.९ ॥
By inference I know she is Maithilī, there is no doubt. I saw her being carried off by a rākṣasa of cruel deeds.
4.6.10
क्रोशन्ती रामरामेति लक्ष्मणेति च विस्वरम्।
स्फुरन्ती रावणस्याङ्के पन्नगेन्द्रवधूर्यथा ॥ ४.६.१० ॥
Crying out loudly, "Rāma, Rāma!" and "Lakṣmaṇa!", struggling in Rāvaṇa's lap like the wife of the king of serpents.
4.6.11
आत्मना पञ्चमं मां हि दृष्ट्वा शैलतले स्थितम्।
उत्तरीयं तया त्यक्तं शुभान्याभरणानि च ॥ ४.६.११ ॥
Seeing me standing on the mountain-slope as the fifth of them, she threw down her upper garment and her auspicious ornaments.
4.6.12
तान्यस्माभिर्गृहीतानि निहितानि च राघव।
आनयिष्याम्यहं तानि प्रत्यभिज्ञातुमर्हसि ॥ ४.६.१२ ॥
We have picked them up and set them aside, Rāghava. I will bring them; you should recognize them.
4.6.13
तमब्रवीत् ततो रामः सुग्रीवं प्रियवादिनम्।
आनयस्व सखे शीघ्रं किमर्थं प्रविलम्बसे ॥ ४.६.१३ ॥
Then Rāma said to Sugrīva, who spoke pleasantly, "Friend, bring them quickly. Why do you delay?"
4.6.14
एवमुक्तस्तु सुग्रीवः शैलस्य गहनां गुहाम्।
प्रविवेश ततः शीघ्रं राघवप्रियकाम्यया ॥ ४.६.१४ ॥
Thus addressed, Sugrīva quickly entered the deep cave of the mountain, desiring to please Rāghava.
4.6.15
उत्तरीयं गृहीत्वा तु स तान्याभरणानि च।
इदं पश्येति रामाय दर्शयामास वानरः ॥ ४.६.१५ ॥
Then the monkey took up the upper garment and those ornaments and showed them to Rāma, saying, "Look at this."
4.6.16
ततो गृहीत्वा वासस्तु शुभान्याभरणानि च।
अभवद् बाष्पसंरुद्धो नीहारेणेव चन्द्रमाः ॥ ४.६.१६ ॥
Then, taking the cloth and those bright ornaments, Rāma became choked with tears, like the moon veiled by mist.
4.6.17
सीतास्नेहप्रवृत्तेन स तु बाष्पेण दूषितः।
हा प्रियेति रुदन् धैर्यमुत्सृज्य न्यपतत् क्षितौ ॥ ४.६.१७ ॥
Afflicted by tears that arose from love for Sītā, he wept, crying "Alas, beloved!" and, letting go of his composure, fell to the ground.
4.6.18
हृदि कृत्वा स बहुशस्तमलंकारमुत्तमम्।
निशश्वास भृशं सर्पो बिलस्थ इव रोषितः ॥ ४.६.१८ ॥
Pressing that excellent ornament again and again to his heart, he breathed deep sighs, like an enraged serpent dwelling in its hole.
4.6.19
अविच्छिन्नाश्रुवेगस्तु सौमित्रिं प्रेक्ष्य पार्श्वतः।
परिदेवयितुं दीनं रामः समुपचक्रमे ॥ ४.६.१९ ॥
Rāma, his tears flowing without ceasing, looked at Saumitri Lakṣmaṇa standing beside him and began to lament piteously.
4.6.20
पश्य लक्ष्मण वैदेह्या संत्यक्तं ह्रियमाणया।
उत्तरीयमिदं भूमौ शरीराद् भूषणानि च ॥ ४.६.२० ॥
Look, Lakṣmaṇa: as she was being carried off, Vaidehī let fall this upper garment and the ornaments from her body onto the ground.
4.6.21
शाद्वलिन्यां ध्रुवं भूम्यां सीतया ह्रियमाणया।
उत्सृष्टं भूषणमिदं तथा रूपं हि दृश्यते ॥ ४.६.२१ ॥
On this grassy ground, surely, Sītā, being carried off, let fall this ornament; its form is plainly seen.
4.6.22
एवमुक्तस्तु रामेण लक्ष्मणो वाक्यमब्रवीत्।
नाहं जानामि केयूरे नाहं जानामि कुण्डले ॥ ४.६.२२ ॥
When Rāma had spoken thus, Lakṣmaṇa replied: "I do not recognize the armlets, nor do I recognize the earrings."
4.6.23
नूपुरे त्वभिजानामि नित्यं पादाभिवन्दनात्।
ततस्तु राघवो वाक्यं सुग्रीवमिदमब्रवीत् ॥ ४.६.२३ ॥
But the anklets I do recognize, for I always bowed at her feet. Then Rāghava spoke these words to Sugrīva.
4.6.24
ब्रूहि सुग्रीव कं देशं ह्रियन्ती लक्षिता त्वया।
रक्षसा रौद्ररूपेण मम प्राणप्रिया हृता ॥ ४.६.२४ ॥
Tell me, Sugrīva, toward what region did you see her being carried off? A rākṣasa of terrible form has seized my beloved, dear as my life.
4.6.25
क्व वा वसति तद् रक्षो महद् व्यसनदं मम।
यन्निमित्तमहं सर्वान् नाशयिष्यामि राक्षसान् ॥ ४.६.२५ ॥
Where does that great bringer of ruin, the rākṣasa, dwell? For his sake I shall destroy all the rākṣasas.
4.6.26
हरता मैथिलीं येन मां च रोषयता ध्रुवम्।
आत्मनो जीवितान्ताय मृत्युद्वारमपावृतम् ॥ ४.६.२६ ॥
By abducting Maithilī and provoking me, he has surely thrown open the gate of death for the ending of his own life.
4.6.27
मम दयिततमा हृता वनाद्
रजनिचरेण विमथ्य येन सा।
कथय मम रिपुं तमद्य वै
प्लवगपते यमसंनिधिं नयामि ॥ ४.६.२७ ॥
My most beloved wife was forcibly seized from the forest by a night-roamer. Tell me, O lord of the monkeys, who that enemy is; this very day I shall send him to the presence of Yama.
