countless multitude, And, joying that his hest was done, Thus spake to Raghu’s mighty son: “See, all the Vánar hosts who fear My sovereign might are gathered here. Chiefs strong as Indra’s self, who speed Wher’er they list, these armies lead. 2Fierce and terrific to the view As Daityas or the Dánav crew, Famed in all lands for souls afire With lofty thoughts, they never tire, O’er hill and vale they wander free, And islets of the distant sea. And these gathered myriads, all Will serve thee, Ráma, at thy call. 3Whate’er thy heart advises, say: Thy mandates will the host obey.” 4Then answered Ráma, as he pressed The Vánar monarch to his breast: “O search for my lost Sítá, strive To find her if she still survive: And in thy wondrous wisdom trace Fierce Rávaṇ to his dwelling-place. And when by toil and search we know Where Sítá lies and where the foe, 5With thee, dear friend, will I devise Fit means to end the enterprise. Not mine, not Lakshmaṇ’s is the power To guide us in the doubtful hour. Thou, sovereign of the Vánars, thou Must be our hope and leader now.” 6He ceased: at King Sugríva’s call Near came a Vánar strong and tall. Huge as a towering mountain, loud As some tremendous thunder cloud, A prince who warlike legions led: To him his sovereign turned and said: “Go, take ten thousand of our race Well trained in lore of time and place, 7And search the eastern region; through Groves, woods, and hills thy way pursue. There seek for Sítá, trace the spot Where Rávaṇ hides, and weary not. Search for the captive in the caves Of mountains, and by woods and waves. To Sarjú, Kauśikí, repair, Bhagírath’s daughter fresh and fair. 8Search mighty Yamun’s peak, explore Swift Yamuná’s delightful shore, Sarasvati and Sindhu’s tide, And rapid Śona’s pebbly side. Then roam afar by Mahí’s bed Where Kálamahí’s groves are spread. Go where the silken tissue shines, Go to the land of silver mines. 9Visit each isle and mountain steep And city circled by the deep, And distant villages that high About the peaks of Mandar lie. Speed over Yavadwipa’s land, And see Mount Śiśir proudly stand Uplifting to the skies his head By Gods and Dánavs visited. 10Search each ravine and mountain pass, Each tangled thicket deep in grass. Search every cave with utmost care If haply Ráma’s queen be there. Then pass beyond the sounding sea Where heavenly beings wander free, And Śona’s waters swift and strong With ruddy billows foam along. 11Search where his shelving banks descend, Search where the hanging woods extend. Try if the pathless thickets screen The robber and the captive queen. Search where the torrent floods that rend The mountain to the plains descend: Search dark abysses where they rave, Search mountain slope and wood and cave 12Then on with rapid feet and gain The inlands of the fearful main Where, tortured by the tempest’s lash, Against rude rocks the billows dash: An ocean like a sable cloud, Whose margent monstrous serpents crowd: An ocean rising with a roar To beat upon an iron shore. 13On, onward still! your feet shall tread Shores of the sea whose waves are red, Where spreading wide your eyes shall see The guilt-tormenting cotton tree And the wild spot where Garuḍ dwells Which gems adorn and ocean shells, High as Kailása, nobly decked, Wrought by the heavenly architect. 14Huge giants named Mandehas there In each foul shape they love to wear, Numbing the soul with terror’s chill, Hang from the summit of the hill. When darts the sun his earliest beam They plunge them in the ocean stream, New vigour from his rays obtain, And hang upon the rocks again. 15Speed onward still: your steps shall be At length beside the Milky Sea Whose every ripple as it curls Gleams glorious with its wealth of pearls. Amid that sea like pale clouds spread The white Mount Rishabh rears his head. About the mountain’s glorious waist Woods redolent of bloom are braced. 16A lake where lotuses unfold Their silver buds with threads of gold, Sudarśan ever bright and fair Where white swans sport, lies gleaming there, The wandering Kinnar’s dear resort, Where heavenly nymphs and Yakshas sport. On! leave the Milky Sea behind: Another flood your search shall find, 17A waste of waters, wild and drear, That chills each living heart with fear. There see the horse’s awful head, Wrath-born, that flames in Ocean’s bed. There rises up a fearful cry From the sea things that move thereby, When, helpless, powerless for flight, They gaze upon the horrid sight. 18Past to the northern shore, and then Beyond the flood three leagues and ten Your wondering glances will behold Mount Játarúpa bright with gold. There like the young moon pale of hue The monstrous serpent will ye view, The earth’s supporter, whose bright eyes Resemble lotus leaves in size. 19He rests upon the mountain’s brow, And all the Gods before him bow. Ananta with a thousand heads His length in robes of azure spreads. A triple-headed palm of gold— Meet standard for the lofty-souled— Springs towering from the mountain’s crest Beneath whose shade he loves to rest, 20So that in eastern realms each God May use it as a measuring-rod. Beyond, with burning gold aglow, The eastern steep his peaks will show, Which in unrivalled glory rise A hundred leagues to pierce the skies, And all the neighbouring air is bright With golden trees that clothe the height. 21A lofty peak uprises there Ten leagues in height and one league square Saumanas, wrought of glistering gold, Ne’er to be loosened from its hold. There his first step Lord Vishṇu placed When through the universe he paced, And with his second lightly pressed The loftiest peak of Meru’s crest. 22When north of Jambudwíp the sun A portion of his course has run, And hangs above this mountain height, Then creatures see the genial light. Vaikhánases, saints far renowned, And Bálakhilyas love the ground Where in their glory half divine, Touched by the morning glow, they shine 23The light that flashes from that steep Illumines all Sudarśandwíp, And on each creature, as it glows, The sight and strength of life bestows. Search well that mountain’s woody side If Rávaṇ there his captive hide. The rising sun, the golden hill The air with growing splendours fill, 24Till flashes from the east the red Of morning with the light they shed. This, where the sun begins his state, Is earth and heaven’s most eastern gate. Through all the mountain forest seek By waterfall and cave and peak. Search every nook and bosky dell, If Rávaṇ there with Sítá dwell. 25There, Vánars, there your steps must stay: No farther eastward can ye stray. Beyond no sun, no moon gives light, But all is sunk in endless night. Thus far, O Vánar lords, may you O’er sea and land your search pursue. But wild and dark and known to none Is the drear space beyond the sun. 26That mountain whence the sun ascends Your long and weary journey ends. Now go, and in a month return, And let success my praises earn. He who beyond tho month shall stay Will with his life the forfeit pay.” ‹Previous chapterRamayana Book 4: Kishkindha Kanda 39Next chapterRamayana Book 4: Kishkindha Kanda 41›Similar passagesBy tradition and source labelFind similarCompare selectedCompare with similarAsk Deep ThoughtSelect passages to search for parallels.Tap any verse to select it, then compare selected passages or ask Deep Thought.
