Doha 97
प्रभु छन महुँ माया सब काटी। जिमि रबि उएँ जाहिं तम फाटी॥ रावनु एकु देखि सुर हरषे। फिरे सुमन बहु प्रभु पर बरषे॥१॥
भुज उठाइ रघुपति कपि फेरे। फिरे एक एकन्ह तब टेरे॥ प्रभु बलु पाइ भालु कपि धाए। तरल तमकि संजुग महि आए॥२॥
अस्तुति करत देवतन्हि देखें। भयउँ एक मैं इन्ह के लेखें॥ सठहु सदा तुम्ह मोर मरायल। अस कहि कोपि गगन पर धायल॥३॥
हाहाकार करत सुर भागे। खलहु जाहु कहँ मोरें आगे॥ देखि बिकल सुर अंगद धायो। कूदि चरन गहि भूमि गिरायो॥४॥
Meaning
In a trice the Lord dispersed the whole phantom, even as the veil of darkness is torn asunder with the rising of the sun. The gods rejoiced to see only one Rāvaṇa and, turning back, rained a profusion of flowers on the Lord. (1) Raising His arm, Śrī Raghunātha rallied the monkeys, who returned, each shouting to the other. Inspired by the might of their lord, the bears and monkeys ran and leaping briskly they arrived on the battle field. (2) When Rāvaṇa saw the gods extolling Śrī Rāma, he thought to himself, ‘They think I am now reduced to one.’ “Fools! you have ever been victims of my thrashing !” So saying he sprang up in the air with great indignation. (3) As the gods fled uttering a piteous cry, Rāvaṇa said, “Wretches, whither can you go from my presence?” Seeing the distress of the gods, Aṅgada rushed forward and with a bound seized Rāvaṇa by the foot and threw him to the ground. (4)
गहि भूमि पार्यो लात मार्यो बालिसुत प्रभु पहिं गयो। संभारि उठि दसकंठ घोर कठोर रव गर्जत भयो॥ करि दाप चाप चढ़ाइ दस संधानि सर बहु बरषई। किए सकल भट घायल भयाकुल देखि निज बल हरषई॥
Meaning
Having seized Rāvaṇa and thrown him to the ground, Bāli’s son, Aṅgada, gave him a kick and then rejoined his lord. The ten-headed monster, on recovering himself, rose again and roared terribly in a shrill voice. Proudly tightening the strings of all his ten bows he put a dart to each one and rained a flight of arrows, wounding all the warriors in the enemy’s ranks to their utter dismay and confusion, and rejoiced to see his own might.
तब रघुपति रावन के सीस भुजा सर चाप। काटे बहुत बढ़े पुनि जिमि तीरथ कर पाप॥९७॥
Meaning
Thereupon Śrī Raghunātha tore off Rāvaṇa’s heads and arms, alongwith the arrows and bows more than once. But each time they all multiplied like sins committed in a holy place. (97)
