महाबलानां रुदतां कुर्वतामुदकं पितुः। विज्ञाय तुमुलं शब्दं त्रस्ता भरतसैनिकाः॥ अब्रुवंश्चापि रामेण भरतः संगतो ध्रुवम्। तेषामेव महाशब्दः शोचतां पितरं मृतम्॥
mahābalānāṃ rudatāṃ kurvatāmudakaṃ pituḥ| vijñāya tumulaṃ śabdaṃ trastā bharatasainikāḥ|| abruvaṃścāpi rāmeṇa bharataḥ saṃgato dhruvam| teṣāmeva mahāśabdaḥ śocatāṃ pitaraṃ mṛtam||
English Meaning
And perceiving the loud uproar of those mighty ones engaged in offering water to their sire, indulging in lamentations, the army of Bharata became agitated. And they said, “For certain Bharata has met with Rāma; and this mighty noise proceeds from them, as they are bitterly mourning their deceased sire.”
