6.2.1
तं तु शोकपरिद्यूनं रामं दशरथात्मजम्।
उवाच वचनं श्रीमान् सुग्रीवः शोकनाशनम् ॥ ६.२.१ ॥
To Rāma, son of Daśaratha, worn down by grief, the glorious Sugrīva spoke these words that dispel sorrow.
6.2.2
किं त्वया तप्यते वीर यथान्यः प्राकृतस्तथा।
मैवं भूस्त्यज संतापं कृतघ्न इव सौहृदम् ॥ ६.२.२ ॥
Hero, why do you torment yourself as an ordinary man would? Do not become like this. Cast off this anguish as an ungrateful man casts off friendship.
6.2.3
संतापस्य च ते स्थानं नहि पश्यामि राघव।
प्रवृत्तावुपलब्धायां ज्ञाते च निलये रिपोः ॥ ६.२.३ ॥
Rāghava, I see no place for your anguish: the enemy's movement has been found out, and his dwelling place is known.
6.2.4
मतिमान् शास्त्रवित् प्राज्ञः पण्डितश्चासि राघव।
त्यजेमां प्राकृतां बुद्धिं कृतात्मेवार्थदूषिणीम् ॥ ६.२.४ ॥
Rāghava, you are wise, learned in the scriptures, discerning and a scholar. Abandon this common understanding, as a self-controlled man abandons a judgment that harms the purpose.
6.2.5
समुद्रं लङ्घयित्वा तु महानक्रसमाकुलम्।
लङ्कामारोहयिष्यामो हनिष्यामश्च ते रिपुम् ॥ ६.२.५ ॥
Having crossed the ocean, full of great crocodiles, we shall mount an assault on Laṅkā and slay your enemy.
6.2.6
निरुत्साहस्य दीनस्य शोकपर्याकुलात्मनः।
सर्वार्था व्यवसीदन्ति व्यसनं चाधिगच्छति ॥ ६.२.६ ॥
For one who lacks zeal, who is wretched and whose mind is overwhelmed with grief, all aims sink away, and calamity befalls him.
6.2.7
इमे शूराः समर्थाश्च सर्वतो हरियूथपाः।
त्वत्प्रियार्थं कृतोत्साहाः प्रवेष्टुमपि पावकम्।
एषां हर्षेण जानामि तर्कश्चापि दृढो मम ॥ ६.२.७ ॥
These heroes, capable on every side, lords of monkey troops, resolved with zeal for your sake to enter even fire. From their joy I know it, and my reasoning is firm.
6.2.8
विक्रमेण समानेष्ये सीतां हत्वा यथा रिपुम्।
रावणं पापकर्माणं तथा त्वं कर्तुमर्हसि ॥ ६.२.८ ॥
By valor I will bring back Sītā, just as you ought to do, having slain the enemy Rāvaṇa, the evil-doer.
6.2.9
सेतुरत्र यथा बद्ध्येद् यथा पश्येम तां पुरीम्।
तस्य राक्षसराजस्य तथा त्वं कुरु राघव ॥ ६.२.९ ॥
Let a bridge be built here so that we may see that city; for that Rākṣasa king, you do so, O Rāghava.
6.2.10
दृष्ट्वा तां हि पुरीं लङ्कां त्रिकूटशिखरे स्थिताम्।
हतं च रावणं युद्धे दर्शनादवधारय ॥ ६.२.१० ॥
Having seen that city Laṅkā, situated on the peak of Trikūṭa, and that Rāvaṇa is slain in battle, be assured from the sight alone.
6.2.11
अबद्ध्वा सागरे सेतुं घोरे च वरुणालये।
लङ्कां न मर्दितुं शक्या सेन्द्रैरपि सुरासुरैः ॥ ६.२.११ ॥
Without building a bridge in the dreadful ocean, abode of Varuṇa, Laṅkā cannot be crushed, not even by gods and demons together with Indra.
6.2.12
सेतुबन्धः समुद्रे च यावल्लङ्कासमीपतः।
सर्वं तीर्णं च मे सैन्यं जितमित्युपधारय।
इमे हि समरे वीरा हरयः कामरूपिणः ॥ ६.२.१२ ॥
Know that the bridge has been built across the ocean, and my whole army has crossed over, near Laṅkā, and has conquered. These monkey heroes in battle can take any form at will.
6.2.13
तदलं विक्लवां बुद्धिं राजन् सर्वार्थनाशिनीम्।
पुरुषस्य हि लोकेऽस्मिन् शोकः शौर्यापकर्षणः ॥ ६.२.१३ ॥
Therefore, O king, let go of this bewildered mind that destroys every purpose. In this world, it is grief that drains a man's valour.
6.2.14
यत् तु कार्यं मनुष्येण शौटीर्यमवलम्ब्यताम्।
तदलंकरणायैव कर्तुर्भवति सत्वरम् ॥ ६.२.१४ ॥
But for the task a man must do, he should rely on courage. That alone becomes the adornment of the doer and bears fruit swiftly.
6.2.15
अस्मिन् काले महाप्राज्ञ सत्त्वमातिष्ठ तेजसा।
शूराणां हि मनुष्याणां त्वद्विधानां महात्मनाम्।
विनष्टे वा प्रणष्टे वा शोकः सर्वार्थनाशनः ॥ ६.२.१५ ॥
At this time, O most wise one, stand firm in resolve with radiance. For heroes and great souls like you, when something is lost or destroyed, grief alone ruins every aim.
6.2.16
तत्त्वं बुद्धिमतां श्रेष्ठः सर्वशास्त्रार्थकोविदः।
मद्विधैः सचिवैः सार्धमरिं जेतुं समर्हसि ॥ ६.२.१६ ॥
You are the best of the wise, skilled in the meaning of all the scriptures. Together with ministers like me, you are fit to conquer the enemy.
6.2.17
नहि पश्याम्यहं कंचित् त्रिषु लोकेषु राघव।
गृहीतधनुषो यस्ते तिष्ठेदभिमुखो रणे ॥ ६.२.१७ ॥
O Rāghava, I see no one in the three worlds who, taking up a bow, could stand face to face with you in battle.
6.2.18
वानरेषु समासक्तं न ते कार्यं विपत्स्यते।
अचिराद् द्रक्ष्यसे सीतां तीर्त्वा सागरमक्षयम् ॥ ६.२.१८ ॥
Your task, which rests upon the monkeys, will not fail. Having crossed the inexhaustible ocean, you will soon see Sītā.
6.2.19
तदलं शोकमालम्ब्य क्रोधमालम्ब भूपते।
निश्चेष्टाः क्षत्रिया मन्दाः सर्वे चण्डस्य बिभ्यति ॥ ६.२.१९ ॥
Therefore, enough of grief, O king; take up anger. All the warriors, motionless and dull, fear the fierce one.
6.2.20
लङ्घनार्थं च घोरस्य समुद्रस्य नदीपतेः।
सहास्माभिरिहोपेतः सूक्ष्मबुद्धिर्विचारय ॥ ६.२.२० ॥
Concerning the crossing of the terrible ocean, lord of rivers, come here with us and consider it, O subtle-minded one.
6.2.21
लङ्घिते तत्र तैः सैन्यैर्जितमित्येव निश्चिनु।
सर्वं तीर्णं च मे सैन्यं जितमित्यवधार्यताम् ॥ ६.२.२१ ॥
If those armies cross the ocean there, know for certain that victory is already won. Let it be resolved that my whole army has crossed and that we have conquered.
6.2.22
इमे हि हरयः शूराः समरे कामरूपिणः।
तानरीन् विधमिष्यन्ति शिलापादपवृष्टिभिः ॥ ६.२.२२ ॥
These monkeys are heroes in battle, able to take whatever form they wish. With showers of rocks and trees they will crush the enemies.
6.2.23
कथंचित् परिपश्यामि लङ्घितं वरुणालयम्।
हतमित्येव तं मन्ये युद्धे शत्रुनिबर्हण ॥ ६.२.२३ ॥
If somehow I see the abode of Varuṇa crossed, I shall consider him already slain in battle, O destroyer of enemies.
6.2.24
किमुक्त्वा बहुधा चापि सर्वथा विजयी भवान्।
निमित्तानि च पश्यामि मनो मे सम्प्रहृष्यति ॥ ६.२.२४ ॥
What need is there for many words? In every way you will be victorious. I see auspicious omens, and my mind rejoices greatly.
