नरैरिवोल्काभिरपोह्यमानो महागजो ध्वान्तमभिप्रविष्टः। भूयः प्रजज्वाल विलापमेवं निशम्य रामः करुणं जनन्याः॥ मार्तं च सौमित्रिमभिप्रतप्तम्। धर्मे स्थितो धर्म्यमुवाच वाक्यं यथा स एवार्हति तत्र वक्तुम् ॥
narairivolkābhirapohyamāno mahāgajo dhvāntamabhipraviṣṭaḥ| bhūyaḥ prajajvāla vilāpamevaṃ niśamya rāmaḥ karuṇaṃ jananyāḥ|| mārtaṃ ca saumitrimabhiprataptam| dharme sthito dharmyamuvāca vākyaṃ yathā sa evārhati tatra vaktum ||
English Meaning
Hearing these sorrowful words of his mother, Rāma was again inflamed with ire, like to an clephant goaded with a fire-brand, when entering into darkness. He, abiding in righteousness spoke such pious words to his mother, almost insensible, and to the son of Sumitrā, bewailing and racked with sorrow, as he was justified to utter on that occasion.
