अनृतं नोक्तपूर्वं मे चिरं कृच्छ्रेऽपि तिष्ठता॥ धर्मलोभपरीतेन न च वक्ष्ये कथंचन। सफलां च करिष्यामि प्रतिज्ञां जहि सम्भ्रमम्॥ प्रसूतं कलमक्षेत्रं वर्षेणेव शतक्रतुः। तदाह्वाननिमित्तं च वालिनो हेममालिनः॥ सुग्रीव कुरु तं शब्दं निष्पतेद् येन वानरः।
anṛtaṃ noktapūrvaṃ me ciraṃ kṛcchre'pi tiṣṭhatā|| dharmalobhaparītena na ca vakṣye kathaṃcana| saphalāṃ ca kariṣyāmi pratijñāṃ jahi sambhramam|| prasūtaṃ kalamakṣetraṃ varṣeṇeva śatakratuḥ| tadāhvānanimittaṃ ca vālino hemamālinaḥ|| sugrīva kuru taṃ śabdaṃ niṣpated yena vānaraḥ|
English Meaning
Though fallen in distress before, I never spoke an untruth, being always guided by an inclination to acquire virtue. Like to the deity of hundred sacrifices causing the rice fields bring forth their fruits by means of profuse showers, I shall fulfil my promise by dint of my prowess. Do you therefore renounce all doubts about it. Do you call, Vāli, wearing a golden garland. Do you make such a sound, O Sugriva, as may bring out that monkey chief (from his city).
