5.29.1
तथागतां तां व्यथितामनिन्दितां
व्यतीतहर्षां परिदीनमानसाम्।
शुभां निमित्तानि शुभानि भेजिरे
नरं श्रिया जुष्टमिवोपसेविनः ॥ ५.२९.१ ॥
Thus, to her—distressed, blameless, her joy gone and her mind dejected—auspicious omens came, as servants come to a man whom fortune attends.
5.29.2
तस्याः शुभं वाममरालपक्ष्म-
राज्यावृतं कृष्णविशालशुक्लम्।
प्रास्पन्दतैकं नयनं सुकेश्या
मीनाहतं पद्ममिवाभिताम्रम् ॥ ५.२९.२ ॥
The left eye of that fair-tressed woman, ringed by a row of lashes like swan-feathers and marked with dark, wide, and white parts, quivered auspiciously—like a deep-red lotus struck by a fish.
5.29.3
भुजश्च चार्वञ्चितवृत्तपीनः
परार्घ्यकालागुरुचन्दनार्हः।
अनुत्तमेनाघ्युषितः प्रियेण
चिरेण वामः समवेपताशु ॥ ५.२९.३ ॥
And her left arm—shapely, curved and full, fit for the finest aloe and sandal, long held in embrace by the unsurpassed beloved—quickly trembled.
5.29.4
गजेन्द्रहस्तप्रतिमश्च पीन-
स्तयोर्द्वयोः संहतयोस्तु जातः।
प्रस्पन्दमानः पुनरूरुरस्या
रामं पुरस्तात् स्थितमाचचक्षे ॥ ५.२९.४ ॥
And one of her two close-set thighs, full and like an elephant's trunk, quivered again—signifying Rāma standing before her.
5.29.5
शुभं पुनर्हेमसमानवर्ण-
मीषद्रजोध्वस्तमिवातुलाक्ष्याः।
वासः स्थितायाः शिखराग्रदन्त्याः
किंचित् परिस्रंसत चारुगात्र्याः ॥ ५.२९.५ ॥
Again the auspicious garment of that incomparably-eyed, mountain-peak-toothed, lovely-limbed woman—golden in colour, as if slightly dusted—slipped a little.
5.29.6
एतैर्निमित्तैरपरैश्च सुभ्रूः
संचोदिता प्रागपि साधुसिद्धैः।
वातातपक्लान्तमिव प्रणष्टं
वर्षेण बीजं प्रतिसंजहर्ष ॥ ५.२९.६ ॥
Stirred by these omens and by other well-tested signs, the fair-browed Sītā had rejoiced before, as a seed withered by wind and sun revives when the rain falls.
5.29.7
तस्याः पुनर्बिम्बफलोपमोष्ठं
स्वक्षिभ्रुकेशान्तमरालपक्ष्म।
वक्त्रं बभासे सितशुक्लदंष्ट्रं
राहोर्मुखाच्चन्द्र इव प्रमुक्तः ॥ ५.२९.७ ॥
Her face, with lips like the bimba fruit, lovely to the ends of her eyes, brows and hair, with curved eyelashes and gleaming white teeth, shone like the moon freed from the mouth of Rāhu.
5.29.8
सा वीतशोका व्यपनीततन्द्रा
शान्तज्वरा हर्षविबुद्धसत्त्वा।
अशोभतार्या वदनेन शुक्ले
शीतांशुना रात्रिरिवोदितेन ॥ ५.२९.८ ॥
Free from sorrow, her weariness and drowsiness dispelled, her fever calmed, her spirit awakened by joy, the noble lady shone with her face, as night shines when the cool-rayed moon has risen in the bright half of the month.
