सर्वे भवन्तः सर्वेण हस्त्यश्वेन समावृताः। निर्यात रथसङ्घश्च हस्त्यश्वैश्चोपशोभिताः॥ एकं रामं परिक्षिप्य समरे हन्तुमर्हथ। प्रहृष्टाः शरवर्षाणि प्रावृट्काल इवाम्बुदाः॥
sarve bhavantaḥ sarveṇa hastyaśvena samāvṛtāḥ| niryāta rathasaṅghaśca hastyaśvaiścopaśobhitāḥ|| ekaṃ rāmaṃ parikṣipya samare hantumarhatha| prahṛṣṭāḥ śaravarṣāṇi prāvṛṭkāla ivāmbudāḥ||
English Meaning
Do you all proceed to battle with elephants, horses and cars. And encircling Rāma only and discharging shafts at him, delightedly, like to clouds, in the rainy season, poring water, do you slay him.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
