Doha 55
ए कपि सब सुग्रीव समाना। इन्ह सम कोटिन्ह गनइ को नाना॥ राम कृपाँ अतुलित बल तिन्हहीं। तृन समान त्रैलोकहि गनहीं॥१॥
अस मैं सुना श्रवन दसकंधर। पदुम अठारह जूथप बंदर॥ नाथ कटक महँ सो कपि नाहीं। जो न तुम्हहि जीतै रन माहीं॥२॥
परम क्रोध मीजहिं सब हाथा। आयसु पै न देहिं रघुनाथा॥ सोषहिं सिंधु सहित झष ब्याला। पूरहिं न त भरि कुधर बिसाला॥३॥
मर्दि गर्द मिलवहिं दससीसा। ऐसेइ बचन कहहिं सब कीसा॥ गर्जहिं तर्जहिं सहज असंका। मानहुँ ग्रसन चहत हहिं लंका॥४॥
Meaning
“Each of these monkeys is as mighty as Sugrīva (the king) and there are tens of millions like them; who can dare count them? By the grace of Śrī Rāma they are unequalled in strength and reckon the three spheres of creation as of no more account than a blade of grass. (1) “I have heard it said, Rāvaṇa, that the commanders of the various monkey-troops alone number eighteen thousand billions. In the whole host, my lord, there is not a single monkey who would not conquer you in battle. (2) “They are all wringing their hands in excitement of passion; but Śrī Raghunātha does not order them (to march). ‘We shall suck the ocean dry with all its fish and serpents or fill it up with huge mountains. (3) “ ‘Nay, we shall crush the ten-headed Rāvaṇa and reduce him to dust.’ Such were the words that all the monkeys uttered. Fearless by nature, they roared and bullied as if they would devour Laṅkā. (4)
सहज सूर कपि भालु सब पुनि सिर पर प्रभु राम। रावन काल कोटि कहुँ जीति सकहिं संग्राम॥५५॥
Meaning
“All the monkeys and bears are born-warriors and, besides, they have Lord Śrī Rāma over their head. Rāvaṇa, they can conquer in battle even millions of Yamas (death personified). (55)
