Verse 107.37

ततः क्रोधान्महाबाहू रघूणां कीर्तिवर्धनः। संधाय धनुषा रामः शरमाशीविषोपमम्॥ रावणस्य शिरोऽच्छिदन्दच्छीमज्ज्वलितकुण्डलम्। तच्छिरः पतितं भूमौ दृष्टं लोकैस्त्रिभिस्तदा॥

tataḥ krodhānmahābāhū raghūṇāṃ kīrtivardhanaḥ| saṃdhāya dhanuṣā rāmaḥ śaramāśīviṣopamam|| rāvaṇasya śiro'cchidandacchīmajjvalitakuṇḍalam| tacchiraḥ patitaṃ bhūmau dṛṣṭaṃ lokaistribhistadā||

English Meaning

Thereupon Råma of long arms, the enhancer of the glory of Raghu's race, enraged, set his arrow, resembling a serpent, on his bow, and cut asunder Rāvana's head wearing shinning Kundalas. And that head in the presence of the inhabitants of the three regions fell down on the earth.
