Doha 50
कहँ कोसलाधीस द्वौ भ्राता। धन्वी सकल लोक बिख्याता॥ कहँ नल नील दुबिद सुग्रीवा। अंगद हनूमंत बल सींवा॥ १ ॥
कहाँ बिभीषनु भ्राताद्रोही। आजु सबहि हठि मारउँ ओही॥ अस कहि कठिन बान संधाने। अतिसय क्रोध श्रवन लगि ताने॥२॥
सर समूह सो छाड़ै लागा। जनु सपच्छ धावहिं बहु नागा॥ जहँ तहँ परत देखिअहिं बानर। सन्मुख होइ न सके तेहि अवसर॥३॥
जहँ तहँ भागि चले कपि रीछा। बिसरी सबहि जुद्ध कै ईछा॥ सो कपि भालु न रन महँ देखा। कीन्हेसि जेहि न प्रान अवसेषा॥४॥
Meaning
“Where are the two brother princes of Kosala, those archers celebrated throughout the spheres? Where are Nala, Nīla, Dvivida and Sugrīva as well as Aṅgada and Hanumān, the most powerful of all? (1) “Where is Vibhīṣaṇa, the traitor to his own brother? I will kill them all today and Vibhīṣaṇa, too, at all events.” So saying, he fitted sharp arrows to his bow and in outrageous fury drew the string up to his ear. (2) Presently he started discharging a volley of arrows that flew like so many winged serpents. Everywhere monkeys were seen falling to the ground; at that time there was none who would dare to face him. (3) Bears and monkeys fled in all directions; none had any desire left to continue the fight. Not a single monkey or bear was to be seen on the field whom he had left with anything but life. (4)
दस दस सर सब मारेसि परे भूमि कपि बीर। सिंहनाद करि गर्जा मेघनाद बल धीर॥५०॥
Meaning
He struck his opponents with ten arrows each, and the monkey-warriors dropped to the ground. Meghanāda, who was as powerful as he was staunch in fight, now roared like a lion. (50)
