# Lanka Kand · Doha 82

**चौ०** 
> धायउ परम क्रुद्ध दसकंधर। सन्मुख चले हूह दै बंदर॥  
> गहि कर पादप उपल पहारा। डारेन्हि ता पर एकहिं बारा॥१॥

**चौ०** 
> लागहिं सैल बज्र तन तासू। खंड खंड होइ फूटहिं आसू॥  
> चला न अचल रहा रथ रोपी। रन दुर्मद रावन अति कोपी॥२॥

**चौ०** 
> इत उत झपटि दपटि कपि जोधा। मर्दै लाग भयउ अति क्रोधा॥  
> चले पराइ भालु कपि नाना। त्राहि त्राहि अंगद हनुमाना॥३॥

**चौ०** 
> पाहि पाहि रघुबीर गोसाईं। यह खल खाइ काल की नाईं॥  
> तेहिं देखे कपि सकल पराने। दसहुँ चाप सायक संधाने॥४॥

Meaning: The wrath of the ten-headed monster Rāvaṇa knew no bound as he darted forward. But the monkeys also hurried to confront him shouting resolutely. Taking in their hands trees, stones and rocks, they hurled them upon him all at once. (1)

The rocks broke to pieces the moment they struck his adamantine frame. Rāvaṇa, who was maddened with the lust for war and was most furious by temperament, flinched not but remained firm as a rock, rooted with his chariot where it stood. (2)

Burning all over with rage he darted and bullied hither and thither and started crushing the monkey warriors. Many a bear and monkey took to his heel, crying: “Help, help, Aṅgada and Hanumān ! (3)

“Save, save, O Lord Raghuvīra! This wretch is devouring us like Death.” When the monster saw that all the monkeys had fled, he put an arrow each to all of his ten bows. (4)

**छं०** 
> संधानि धनु सर निकर छाड़ेसि उरग जिमि उड़ि लागहीं।  
> रहे पूरि सर धरनी गगन दिसि बिदिसि कहँ कपि भागहीं॥  
> भयो अति कोलाहल बिकल कपि दल भालु बोलहिं आतुरे।  
> रघुबीर करुना सिंधु आरत बंधु जन रच्छक हरे॥

Meaning: Putting an arrow to each of his bows, he shot a volley of arrows, which flew and lodged like winged serpents. The shafts filled all available space on earth as well as in the sky including the eight quarters, so that the monkeys knew not where to go. There was a wild uproar in the ranks of the monkeys and bears, who were all sore distressed and cried in anguish: “O Raghuvīra, O Ocean of mercy, O Befriender of the distressed, O Hari, O Saviour of mankind !”

**दो०** 
> निज दल बिकल देखि कटि कसि निषंग धनु हाथ।  
> लछिमन चले क्रुद्ध होइ नाइ राम पद माथ॥८२॥

Meaning: Seeing the distress of his troops, Lakṣmaṇa fastened the quiver at his back and taking the bow in his hand he bowed his head at Śrī Rāma’s feet and sallied forth, full of rage. (82)
