कार्तिके समनुप्राप्ते त्वं रावणवधे यत। एष नः समयः सौम्य प्रविश त्वं स्वमालयम्॥ अभिषिञ्चस्व राज्ये च सुहृदः सम्प्रहर्षय।
kārtike samanuprāpte tvaṃ rāvaṇavadhe yata| eṣa naḥ samayaḥ saumya praviśa tvaṃ svamālayam|| abhiṣiñcasva rājye ca suhṛdaḥ sampraharṣaya|
English Meaning
You shall engage in endeavours to bring about the destruction of Rāvana, after Kārtika sets in. This is not the proper time, O gentle one, and do you enter your own city. And being installed on the throne do you enhance the joy of your friends.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
