6.124.1
पूर्णे चतुर्दशे वर्षे पञ्चम्यां लक्ष्मणाग्रजः।
भरद्वाजाश्रमं प्राप्य ववन्दे नियतो मुनिम् ॥ ६.१२४.१ ॥
When the fourteen years were complete, on the fifth day, Rāma, the elder brother of Lakṣmaṇa, reached the hermitage of Bharadvāja and, self-controlled, bowed down to the sage.
6.124.2
सोऽपृच्छदभिवाद्यैनं भरद्वाजं तपोधनम्।
शृणोषि कच्चिद् भगवन् सुभिक्षानामयं पुरे।
कच्चित् स युक्तो भरतो जीवन्त्यपि च मातरः ॥ ६.१२४.२ ॥
Having bowed to Bharadvāja, whose wealth is austerity, he asked: "Revered one, do you hear that there is plenty and freedom from sickness in the city? Is Bharata well-disposed, and are the mothers still alive?"
6.124.3
एवमुक्तस्तु रामेण भरद्वाजो महामुनिः।
प्रत्युवाच रघुश्रेष्ठं स्मितपूर्वं प्रहृष्टवत् ॥ ६.१२४.३ ॥
When Rāma had spoken thus, the great sage Bharadvāja, first smiling and filled with joy, replied to the best of the Raghus.
6.124.4
आज्ञावशत्वे भरतो जटिलस्त्वां प्रतीक्षते।
पादुके ते पुरस्कृत्य सर्वं च कुशलं गृहे ॥ ६.१२४.४ ॥
Bharata, matted-haired, bound to your command, awaits you; placing your sandals before him, all is well at home.
6.124.5
त्वां पुरा चीरवसनं प्रविशन्तं महावनम्।
स्त्रीतृतीयं च्युतं राज्याद् धर्मकामं च केवलम् ॥ ६.१२४.५ ॥
Formerly I saw you, clad in bark garments, entering the great forest, fallen from the kingdom, with your wife as the third, desiring only dharma.
6.124.6
पदातिं त्यक्तसर्वस्वं पितृनिर्देशकारिणम्।
सर्वभोगैः परित्यक्तं स्वर्गच्युतमिवामरम् ॥ ६.१२४.६ ॥
You went on foot, having given up all possessions, obedient to your father's command, abandoned by all pleasures, like a god fallen from heaven.
6.124.7
दृष्ट्वा तु करुणापूर्वं ममासीत् समितिंजय।
कैकेयीवचने युक्तं वन्यमूलफलाशिनम् ॥ ६.१२४.७ ॥
Seeing him, O conqueror in battle, subject to Kaikeyī's words and eating forest roots and fruits, I first felt compassion.
6.124.8
साम्प्रतं तु समृद्धार्थं समित्रगणबान्धवम्।
समीक्ष्य विजितारिं च ममाभूत् प्रीतिरुत्तमा ॥ ६.१२४.८ ॥
But now, seeing him with his aim fulfilled, with friends, companions and kin, and his enemy conquered, I felt supreme joy.
6.124.9
सर्वं च सुखदुःखं ते विदितं मम राघव।
यत् त्वया विपुलं प्राप्तं जनस्थाननिवासिना ॥ ६.१२४.९ ॥

Appointed for the sake of the brahmins and protecting all the ascetics, this blameless wife was seized by Rāvaṇa.
6.124.11
मारीचदर्शनं चैव सीतोन्मथनमेव च।
कबन्धदर्शनं चैव पम्पाभिगमनं तथा ॥ ६.१२४.११ ॥
The sight of Mārīca, the seizing of Sītā, the sight of Kabandha, and the journey to Pampā as well.
6.124.12
सुग्रीवेण च ते सख्यं यत्र वाली हतस्त्वया।
मार्गणं चैव वैदेह्याः कर्म वातात्मजस्य च ॥ ६.१२४.१२ ॥
Your friendship with Sugrīva, where you slew Vālī, the search for Vaidehī, and the deed of the son of the Wind as well.
6.124.13
विदितायां च वैदेह्यां नलसेतुर्यथा कृतः।
यथा चादीपिता लङ्का प्रहृष्टैर्हरियूथपैः ॥ ६.१२४.१३ ॥
And when Vaidehī was known, as Nala built the bridge, and as the joyful leaders of the monkey hosts set Laṅkā on fire.
6.124.14
सपुत्रबान्धवामात्यः सबलः सहवाहनः।
यथा च निहतः संख्ये रावणो बलदर्पितः ॥ ६.१२४.१४ ॥
As Rāvaṇa, proud of his strength, was slain in battle together with his sons, kinsmen, ministers, army and vehicles.

अहमप्यत्र ते दद्मि वरं शस्त्रभृतां वर।
अर्घ्यं प्रतिगृहाणेदमयोध्यां श्वो गमिष्यसि ॥ ६.१२४.१७ ॥
I too grant you a boon here. O best of weapon-bearers, accept this offering of honour; tomorrow you will go to Ayodhyā.
6.124.18
तस्य तच्छिरसा वाक्यं प्रतिगृह्य नृपात्मजः।
बाढमित्येव संहृष्टः श्रीमान् वरमयाचत ॥ ६.१२४.१८ ॥
Having received his words with bowed head, the glorious prince, delighted, said, "Very well," and asked for a boon.
6.124.19
अकालफलिनो वृक्षाः सर्वे चापि मधुस्रवाः।
फलान्यमृतगन्धीनि बहूनि विविधानि च ॥ ६.१२४.१९ ॥
Trees that bore fruit out of season, all of them dripping with honey, and many kinds of fruit fragrant as nectar appeared.

अभवन् पादपास्तत्र स्वर्गपादपसंनिभाः।
निष्फलाः फलिनश्चासन् विपुष्पाः पुष्पशालिनः ॥ ६.१२४.२१ ॥
The trees there became like the celestial trees of heaven: some were fruitless, some bore fruit; some were without flowers, some were adorned with blossoms.
6.124.22
शुष्काः समग्रपत्रास्ते नगाश्चैव मधुस्रवाः।
सर्वतो योजनास्तिस्रो गच्छतामभवंस्तदा ॥ ६.१२४.२२ ॥
Those trees, though dry, had all their leaves, and they dripped honey; and then, on every side of those who were going, for three yojanas, it was so.
6.124.23
ततः प्रहृष्टाः प्लवगर्षभास्ते
बहूनि दिव्यानि फलानि चैव।
कामादुपाश्नन्ति सहस्रशस्ते
मुदान्विताः स्वर्गजितो यथैव ॥ ६.१२४.२३ ॥
Then those foremost of monkeys, overjoyed, ate many divine fruits by the thousands as they desired, filled with delight, like conquerors of heaven.
