5.36 సున్దరకాణ్డ - షట్త్రింశ సర్గః

Again the great-souled Hanuman, son of the wind, spoke humble words in order to give Sita confidence. ^AI

परतूनय महातेजस्वी, पवनात्मज हनुमान हांणे सीतेक विश्वास दिवपाखातीर नम्र उतरां सांगलीं. ^AI

'O greatly blessed lady, I am a monkey, a messenger of the wise Rama. Behold, O goddess, this ring engraved with Rama's name.' ^AI

'हे महाभागे, हांव एक वानर, बुद्धिमान रामाचो दूत. हे देवी, रामाचें नांव कोरांतलें हें अंगठ्याचें मुद्री पळय.' ^AI

'It was brought to you by that great soul and given as a token of assurance. Take comfort; may all be well with you, for you are soon to reap the fruit of your sorrows now ended.' ^AI

'तुजो विश्वास जावपाखातीर तें त्या महात्म्यान हाडलें आनी तुका दिलें. समाधान धर, तुजें बरें जावं; कारण तुज्या दुखांचो फळ आतां सोंपलां.' ^AI

Taking that ornament of her husband's hand and gazing at it, Janaki became joyful, as though she had attained her husband himself. ^AI

आपल्या घोवाच्या हाताचें तें आभूषण घेवन ताचेर नदर मारतना जानकी आपल्या घोवाकूच मेळ्ळी अशी खोशी जाली. ^AI

Her lovely face with its large eyes, reddish-white like a lotus, shone brightly, like the moon released from Rahu. ^AI

तिचें सुंदर तोंड, कमळासारकीं तांबडीं-धवल विशाल दोळे आसलेलें, राहूच्यान सुटल्या चंद्रासारकें शोभलें. ^AI

Then that modest young woman, delighted by her husband's message, being well pleased and feeling that a kindness had been done to her, praised the great monkey. ^AI

उपरांत ती लज्जाळ बालिका, घोवाच्या संदेशान खोशी जाल्ली, समाधान पावन आपलें बरें जालें अशें मानून तिणें त्या महाकपीक वाखाणलो. ^AI

'O best of monkeys, you are valiant, you are capable, you are wise, since by you alone this abode of the demons has been assailed.' ^AI

'हे वानरश्रेष्ठा, तूं वीर आसा, तूं समर्थ आसा, तूं शहाणो आसा; कारण हें राक्षसांचें स्थान तुवें एकल्यानूच हल्ल्यार केलें.' ^AI

'The ocean, a hundred yojanas wide and the home of sea-monsters, was crossed by you whose stride is worthy of praise, and made as small as a cow's hoofprint.' ^AI

'शंभर योजन विस्ताराचो, मकरांचो आसरो आशिल्लो समुद्र, तुज्या वाखाणण्यासारख्या पराक्रमान तुवें ओलांडलो आनी तो गायेच्या खुरासारको ल्हान केलो.' ^AI

O bull among monkeys, I do not regard you as an ordinary monkey, for you have no fear of Ravana nor any agitation. ^AI

हे वानरांमधल्या श्रेष्ठा, हांव तुका सामान्य वानर मानीनात, कारण तुका रावणाचो भय ना आनी कसलोच गोंदळ ना. ^AI

O best of monkeys, you are worthy to be spoken to by me, if you have been sent by that Rama who knows the self. ^AI

हे कपिश्रेष्ठा, जर तुका आत्मज्ञानी रामान धाडला आसा, तर हांव तुजे कडेन उलोवपाक योग्य आसां. ^AI

The unassailable Rama will not send anyone to me, especially without having tested and known his valor. ^AI

अजिंक्य राम आपलो पराक्रम पारखून आनी वळखून घेतल्याबगर कोणाकूच, खास करून म्हजे कडेन, धाडचो ना. ^AI

By good fortune, the righteous Rama, whose vow is truth, is well; and so is the greatly resplendent Lakshmana, the joy of Sumitra. ^AI

दैवान राम कुशळ आसा, तो धर्मात्मा आनी सत्याचो व्रत घेतिल्लो; आनी सुमित्रेचो आनंद वाडोवपी, म्हान तेजस्वी लक्ष्मणूय कुशळ आसा. ^AI

If the descendant of Kakutstha is well, why does he not burn the earth girdled by the ocean in his anger, like the fire at the end of an age arisen? ^AI

जर ककुत्स्थकुलांतलो राम कुशळ आसा, तर तो रागान प्रळयकाळच्या उदेल्ल्या अग्नीसारको सागराच्या मेखळेन वेढिल्ली पृथ्वी कित्याक ना जळोवंक? ^AI

Or else, those two are capable even of subduing the gods; but I think there is no reversal of my sorrows. ^AI

वा, ते दोगूय देवांकूय दमन करपाक समर्थ आसात; पूण म्हज्या दुखांचो विपर्यय (अंत) जावचो ना अशें हांव मानतां. ^AI

Is Rama not distressed? Is he not burning with grief? Does the best of men attend to the tasks that follow? ^AI

राम व्यथित जालो ना काय? तो संतापत ना काय? पुरुषोत्तम फुडलीं कार्यां करतलो काय? ^AI

Is the son of the king not wretched, not bewildered, and not confused in his affairs? Does he perform the deeds of a man? ^AI

राजाचो पूत दीन आनी भ्रमिष्ट जालो ना काय? कार्यांनी तो गोंदळटा ना काय? तो पुरुषाक साजे अशीं कार्यां करता काय? ^AI

Does the scorcher of foes, the son of the king, resort to the twofold and threefold means and strategy? Does he, desiring victory, act among his friends? ^AI

दुश्मनांक दुखयणारो राजाचो पुत्र विजयाची इच्छा करपी जावन द्विविध आनी त्रिविध उपाय आनी मार्ग हांचो आसरो घेता काय? तो आपल्या मित्रांमदीं वागता काय? ^AI

Does he gain friends, and is he approached by friends? Is he one whose friends are auspicious, and is he honored by his friends? ^AI

तो मित्र मेळयता काय, आनी मित्रांनी ताचे-कडेन येवप जाता काय? तो कल्याणकारक मित्रांचो आसा काय, आनी मित्रांनी ताचो भोवमान जाता काय? ^AI

Does the prince seek the grace of the gods? Does he pursue both human effort and destiny? ^AI

राजपुत्र देवांचो प्रसाद मागता काय? तो पुरुषप्रयत्न आनी दैव ह्या दोगांकूय आपणायता काय? ^AI

Has Raghava not lost his affection for me because of my absence? O monkey, will he free me from this misfortune? ^AI

हे वानरा, म्हज्या विलगपाक लागून राघवान म्हजेरलो स्नेह सोडलो ना काय? तो ह्या संकश्टांतल्यान म्हाका सोडयता काय? ^AI

Rama, who is ever fit for pleasures and unfit for sorrows, having met with greater suffering — does he not sink under it? ^AI

नित्य सुखांक योग्य आनी दुखांक अयोग्य असो राम, ह्या परस चड दुख मेळ्ळ्यार तो खालीं बुडटा काय ना? ^AI

Is the welfare of Kausalya, and likewise of Sumitra, and also of Bharata, heard of constantly? ^AI

कौसल्येचें आनी तशेंच सुमित्रेचें, आनी भरताचेंय कुशल नित्य आयकुपाक मेळटा काय? ^AI

Does the venerable Raghava, because of sorrow on my account, not turn his mind elsewhere? Will Rama rescue me? ^AI

म्हज्या निमतान दुखान मानाक योग्य असो राघव आपलें मन दुसरिकडे घालना काय? राम म्हाका तारता काय? ^AI

Will Bharata, loving his brother, send a terrible army with a host of akshauhini, guarded by his ministers, for my sake? ^AI

भावाचेर मोग करपी भरत म्हज्या खातीर भयंकर अक्षौहिणी सेना, मंत्र्यांनी राखिल्ली ध्वजांवळी सेना धाडटा काय? ^AI

Will the noble Sugriva, lord of the monkeys, come for my sake, surrounded by brave monkeys whose weapons are their teeth and nails? ^AI

सुग्रीव नांवाचो बुद्धीमान वानरांचो राजा, दांत आनी नखां हींच आयुधां आशिल्ल्या वीर वानरांनी वेढिल्लो, म्हजे खातीर येतलो काय? ^AI

Will the valiant Lakshmana, who brings joy to Sumitra, skilled in weapons, destroy the demons with a net of arrows? ^AI

सुमित्रेक आनंद दिवपी, शूर आनी अस्त्रां विशीं जाणकार लक्ष्मण, बाणांच्या जाळ्यान राक्षसांचो नाश करतलो काय? ^AI

Will I soon see Ravana slain in battle together with his kinsmen, struck down by the blazing, terrible weapon? ^AI

भयानक आनी ज्वलनशील त्या अस्त्रान मारिल्लो, आपल्या सगळ्या सोयऱ्यां-मित्रांसयत रावण, थोड्या काळान रणांत मारिल्लो हांव पळोवंक पावतलों काय? ^AI

Will not that face of hers, of hue like gold and fragrance like a lotus, wither away without me, sorrowful and wretched, like a lotus in the heat when the water is gone? ^AI

सोन्यासारखो रंग आनी कमळासारखो वास आशिल्लो तिचो तो चेहरो, म्हजेभायर शोकान दुबळो जावन, उदक सोंपल्यार उन्हान सुकून वचपी कमळा सारखो सुकून वचनासलो काय? ^AI

He who, at the command of dharma, gave up the kingdom, and led me too to the forest on foot — he had no anguish, no fear, no sorrow; will he keep firmness in his heart? ^AI

धर्माच्या आदेशान राज्य सोडिल्लो आनी म्हाका पयलीं चलत रानांत व्हेल्लो तो, जाका कसलोच त्रास, भंय वा दुख्ख नासलो, तो आपल्या काळजांत धीर धरतलो काय? ^AI

He has neither mother nor father, nor any other dearer to him than I, or equal to me; therefore, O messenger, I wish to live only until I hear tidings of my beloved. ^AI

ताका आवय ना, बापूय ना, आनी म्हजेभायर वा म्हज्या बरोबर तितलोच मोगाचो दुसरो कोणूच ना; देखून, हे दूत, म्हज्या मोगाच्या खबरेंतल्यान म्हाका खबर मेळचेमेरेन हांव जियेवपाक सोदतां. ^AI

Having thus spoken to that lord of the monkeys words of great meaning and sweet import, the lady, longing to hear again his delightful words concerning Rama, fell silent. ^AI

अशे तरेन ती देवी, वानरांच्या त्या राजाक खूब अर्थ आनी गोड अर्थ आशिल्लीं उतरां सांगून, रामाचे विशीं आशिल्लीं ताचीं मनोहर उतरां परतून आयकुपाक उत्सुक जावन, ती स्त्री मौन जाली. ^AI

Hearing Sita's words, the mighty Maruti of terrible valor, placing his joined palms on his head, spoke these words in reply. ^AI

सीतेचीं उतरां आयकून, भयानक पराक्रम आशिल्ल्या मारुतीन आपल्या माथ्यार विनयान हात जोडून, अशें उत्तर दिलें. ^AI

O lotus-eyed lady, Rama does not know that you are here. That is why, like Indra (the slayer of Pura) bringing Shachi, he does not swiftly come to take you away. ^AI

हे कमळनयनी, रामाक तू हांगा आसा हें खबर ना. तेच कारणान, पुरंदरान शचीक व्हरिल्ली तशें, तो तुका रोखडो व्हरूंक येना. ^AI

As soon as he hears my words, the descendant of Raghu will come swiftly, drawing along a great army crowded with hosts of monkeys and bears. ^AI

म्हजें उतर आयकून राघव लगेच येतलो, माकडां आनी रीछांनी भरिल्ली व्हड सेना घेवन येतलो. ^AI

Having made the unshakable abode of Varuna (the ocean) stand still with showers of arrows, the descendant of Kakutsa will make the city of Lanka free of its Rakshasas. ^AI

बाणांच्या मारांनी अक्षोभ्य अशा वरुणाच्या घराक (समुद्राक) थंबावन, काकुत्स्थ लंकेचें नगर राक्षसांविरयत करतलो. ^AI

If death comes in between, or if the gods together with the Asuras stand in Rama's path, he will slay even them. ^AI

ताचे वाटेर मदीं मरण आयलें जाल्यार वा देव आसुरांसयत उबे रावले जाल्यार, तो तांकांय मारतलो. ^AI

O noble lady, overwhelmed by grief born of not seeing you, Rama finds no peace, like an elephant tormented by a lion. ^AI

हे आर्ये, तुका न पळोवपाच्या दुखान भरिल्लो राम, सिंहान त्रास दिल्ल्या हत्तीवरी, कसलीय शांती मेळयना. ^AI

O goddess, I swear by the Malaya, the Vindhya, the Meru and the Mandara mountains, and by the dardura (frog) and by roots and fruits. ^AI

हे देवी, मलय, विंध्य, मेरू आनी मंदर ह्या पर्वतांची, दर्दुराची आनी मुळां-फळांची सोय करून हांव शपथ घेता. ^AI

You will soon see Rama's face, with its lovely eyes, charming and with bimba-fruit lips and beautiful earrings, like the full moon risen. ^AI

सुंदर दोळे आनी बिंबा फळा सारके ओंठ आनी सोबीत कुंडलां आशिल्लें रामाचें उदयाक आयिल्ल्या पूर्ण चंद्रा सारकें मुख तूं पळोवंक पावतली. ^AI

O Vaidehi, you will soon see Rama on the mountain Prasravana, seated like the hundred-rite Indra upon the head of the king of serpents. ^AI

हे वैदेही, प्रस्रवण पर्वताचेर, नागराजाच्या माथ्यार बसल्ल्या शतक्रतू (इंद्रा) सारक्या रामाक तूं रोखडो पळोवंक पावतली. ^AI

Raghava does not eat meat, nor does he partake of honey; daily he eats well-prepared forest food as his fifth meal. ^AI

राघव मांस खायना, आनी म्होंवयूय तो सेवना; दिसा-दिसाक तो रानांतलें बरें तयार केल्लें अन्न पांचवें जेवण म्हणून खाता. ^AI

With his inner self fixed on you, Raghava does not brush away gnats, mosquitoes, insects, or creeping creatures from his body. ^AI

तुज्या ध्यानांत आपलो आंतरात्मो गुंतयल्लो राघव, आपल्या आंगारसून डांस, मुस्कां, कीट आनी सरपटपी जीव काडून उडयना. ^AI

Rama is ever absorbed in meditation, ever given over to grief; he thinks of nothing else — he has come under the sway of desire. ^AI

राम नित्य ध्यानांत मग्न आसा, नित्य शोकांत बुडल्लो आसा; तो हेर कितेंय चिंतना — तो कामाच्या ताब्यांत आयला. ^AI

Rama is sleepless continually, and even when the best of men has slept, he wakes again uttering the sweet word 'Sita.' ^AI

राम नित्य निद्रेवीण आसा, आनी नरश्रेष्ठ न्हिदलो तरी तो जागो जावन गोड उलोवपान 'सीता' अशें उच्चारता. ^AI

Seeing a fruit or a flower or anything else lovely, he sighs again and again, 'Ah, my beloved!' and so addresses you. ^AI

फळ वा फूल वा हेर खंयचीय सुंदर वस्तू पळयल्यार, तो खूब फावटी 'हाय म्हजे प्रिये!' अशें उस्वास घेत उलोवन तुका संबोदून उलयता. ^AI

Thus, O goddess, the great-souled prince, ever burning with anguish, ever saying 'O Sita' to you, firm in his vow, has made his effort solely for the gaining of you. ^AI

देवी, अशें नित्य तळमळत, तुका 'सीता' म्हणून संबोदून उलोवपी, व्रत धरिल्लो, महात्मो राजपुत्र, तुजोच लाभ जावपाखातीर आपलो यत्न केला. ^AI

She whose grief was banished by the recital of Rama's name, yet whose grief was equal to Rama's grief, the daughter of Videha became like a night at the close of autumn whose remaining clouds and moon linger on. ^AI

रामाच्या नामस्मरणान तिचो शोक ना जालो, पूण तिचो शोक रामाच्या शोकाक समान जालो; अशी वैदेहीची कन्या, शरद ऋतूच्या सुरवातेक उरिल्ल्या मेघांनी आनी चंद्रानी युक्त अशा रात्रीसारकी जाली. ^AI
