Hear My prayer

Jai sri Ram,
He inwardly prayed to God that Sri Rama might not be able to proceed to the woods,

Invoking the Mighty Shiva he solicited him Saying,

Hear My prayer-O ever blissful Lord,

Quickly pleased and indiscreetly generous as you are, pray relive my affliction knowing me to be in distress,

May lord bless all,

Thanks Plaese 

again and again

Hare Krishna,
Overwhelmed with emotion the king clasped him to his bosom,

As though a serpent had regained its lost gem

The Monarch kept gazing on Sri Rama and a torrent of tears streamed forth from his eyes,

Over powered with grief he could not utter a word and pressed the prince to his heart again and again,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please 

beheld Rama

Jai sri Ram,
And the Sumantra informed King of sri Rama arrival,

Sumantra Made humble submission to him in words appropriate to the occasion,

Hearing that Sri Rama had come the king recovered himself and open eyes,

Sumantra helped his sovereign to a sitting posture, when latter beheld Rama falling at his feet,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please

spell of unconsciousness

Jai sri Ram,
It is hardly desirable for him to disregard the virtues that have fetched him a son like you,

Those polite words adorned her detestable mouth even as sacred spot like Gaya beautify the accused land of Magadha,

All these words from his stepmother sounded pleasant to Rama in the same way as waters of all kinds are hallowed through confluence with Holy Ganga,

The King's spell of unconsciousness now left him, he remembered Rama and then changed sides,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please

evening of his life,

Jai sri Ram,
You are hardly capable of any offence,

Dear son, a source of delight that you are to your parents and brothers,

What you say is all true, you are devoted to the words of your father and mother,

I adjure you to argue  with your father that he may not incur opprobrium in the evening of his life,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please 

Purnamasi

Obeisance to Lord Shiva, on the occasion of this unique divine chapter-revere your lotus feet again and again,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please 

i swear

Jai Sri Ram,
The words of Sri Rama were artless and straightforward, yet the evil minded kaykai gave them a perverse twist,

A leech must always move obliquely even though the water on which it moves has a smooth surface,

The queen rejoiced to find Sri Rama inclined towards her proposal,

She Said with false show of affection-i swear by yourself and Bharata that no other cause of the king;s affection is known to me,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please 

tell me the truth,

Jai Sri Ram,
That my father should be so overwhelmed with grief over a trifling matter is more than i can believe,

The King is stout of heart and a fathomless ocean of goodness,

I must have committed some great offence, which prevents the king from speaking out his mind to me,

I adjure you, therefore, to tell me the truth,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please 

tree of paradise

Jai sri Ram
Those who nurture a caster oil plant leaving the tree of paradise

And barter away nectar for poison, they too will not lose an opportunity like this should they ever get it,

Ponder this fact in your mind and realize it, Mother,

Only one thing pains me most-mother-i am grieved to see the king sore distressed,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please

God is propitious to me

Jai sri Ram,
Again, Bharata-who is dear to me as my life, will get the sovereignty,

God is propitious to me in every respect today,

If i refuse to proceed to the woods even under such circumstances,

I should be reckoned foremost in an assembly of fools,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please 

Listen Mother

Jai sri Ram,
Listen Mother-that son alone is blessed, who is devoted to the words of his parents,

A son who gratifies his father and mother is rare in this wide world,

In the forest i shall get more frequent opportunities of meeting hermits, which will be beneficial to me in everyway,

On top of it, I have my father's command and your approval to boot, mother

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please 

ornaments of speech

Jai sri Ram,
Having communicated the whole incident to Sri Rama,

She sat like the very incarnation of heartlessness,

The Sun of the solar dynasty, Sri Rama, the natural fountain of joy,

Smiled within himself and spoke words which were free from all blemishes and were so sweet and agreeably that they seemed to be the very ornaments of speech,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please

Love for his son

Jai sri Ram,
Love for his son on one side and his plighted word on the other,

The King is placed on the horns of a dilemma,

Obey his command if you can, rid him of a severe mental torture,

Kaykai unhesitatingly spoke these pungent words, which bow and words for so many shafts and with the king for a delicate target as it were, it looked as if stiffness had taken the form of a great hero and practised bowman-ship,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please 

fond of you

Jai Sri Ram
Listen, Rama, the sole cause is the king is very fond of you,

He had promised me two boons of my choice and i asked whatever i liked,

The king, however, was stricken with grief to hear my requests,

For he cannot shake off the hesitation on your score,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please

as the occasion demanded

Jai sri Ram
He had never heard of it before, yet, recovering himself as the occasion demanded,

Addressed His step mother in the following sweet words,

Tell me, dear Mother, the cause of my father's Distress,

So that an attempt may be made to remove it,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please 

first time in his life

Jai sri Ram,
The Lord behold by the side of his father angry Kaykai,

Who stood there like death personified counting the last minutes of his life,

Sri Rama was compassionate and soft by nature,

He witnessed sorrow for the first time in his life,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks please

bereft of the gem

Jai Sri Ram,
The jewel of Raghu's Race went and saw the king in an utterly wretched state like an aged elephant,

Who had drooped down in the terror at the sight of a lioness,

His Lips got parched and his whole frame burned,

He looked like a helpless snake bereft of the gem on its hood,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please 

Looking sri Rama

Jai Sri Ram,
He, however, reassured them all and proceed to the apartment where the ornament of solar race was,

When Sri Ram saw Sumantra coming, he received him with honour, treating the minister on an equal footing with his father,

Looking sri Rama followed the minister in an unbecoming manner,

People here and there grieved to see this,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please

Jai sri Ram,
He felt so distressed with anxiety that legs refused to move ahead,

He wondered recovering himself to repaired to the gate,

Seeing him disconsolate all began to question him,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please

Therefore, call on Rama and bring him soon,

Thereafter, when you have come back,

The King had no sleep last Night,

Heaven alone knows the reason,

He has been simply repeating Rama-Rama-Rama Till day broke,

And refuse to disclose the secret,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please

broke the silence,

Jai Sri Ram
Be victorious and live forever,

Bowling his head he sat down,

He turned pale to behold the condition of the king, who lay on the ground distracted with grief and colourless like a lotus stalk torn from its root,

The Minister being too alarmed to ask any question, Kaykai , who was full of evil and void of good, broke the silence,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please

dismal appearance

Jai sri Ram,
Sumantra then entered the gynaeceum but it wore such a dismal appearance that he was afraid to advance,

It looked like a monster that would spring on him and devour him, its sight was so rappelling,

It seemed to be the very abode of calamity and sorrow,

Since nobody answered his questions he proceeded to the apartment where king and queen Kaykai were greeting the king with the words,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please

Sri Shravana Shivratri

Jai Sri Ram,
It is Sri Shravana Shivratri today, a day to celebrate in divine spirit,

May he in whose lap shines forth the daughter of the mountain king, who carries celestial stream on his head, on whose brow rests the crescent moon,

Whose throat holds poison and whose breast is support of a huge serpent and who is adorned by the ashes on his body,

May that chief of gods, the Lord of all, the destroyer of the evil, the omnipresent Shiva, The Moon Like shiv, ever protect devotees,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please   

Hare Rama

Jai sri Ram,
The king used to wake up during the last watch of the night everyday,

His Behaviour today appears most strange to us,

Getting into the Palace, O Sumantra, you go and rouse him,

On receiving his orders we may proceeded with our work,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please 

not yet woken up

Jai sri Ram,
These and other tokens of rejoicing pleased him not even as ornaments repel a widow who has decided to accompany her deceased husband on the other world,

None could have a wink of sleep that night since everyone was eagerly longing for a sight of Sri Rama,

At the door waited a crowd of servants and ministers, who said to one another at the sight of the risen Sun.

The Lord of Ayodhya has not yet woken up, what special reason can there be,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please

pierced the king

Jai Sri Ram
The King's affection and relentlessness of Kaykai both were the highest of their kind in God's creation,

While the king was yet wailing, the day broke,

The Music of lute, flute and conch was heard at his Door,

Bards extolled him and minstrels sangs his praises, however, pierced the king like shafts as he heard them,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please   

plight of Ayodhya

For You will be pained at heart to see the plight of Ayodhya,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please 

Rama

Jai sri Ram,
Thus arguing with her in numberless way the king dropped on the ground crying

Why do you bring ruin to all,

But a pastmaster in wiles the queen did not utter a word as though busy performing magical rites in a crematorium to acquire control over ghosts,

Stricken with grief the King repeated the word Rama Again and Again and felt miserable like a bird that has been shorn of its wings,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please 

So long i am alive

Jai sri Ram,
All his brothers shall serve him and his fame shall spread throughout the three spheres of creation,

Now do whatever pleases you; only keep out of my sight hiding your face,

So long i am alive i beseech you with joined palm, pray speak not a word to me again, you will repent in the end, O hapless woman, that you killed a cow for the sake of gut,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please

sovereignty of Rama

Jai sri Ram,
Bharata would never covet sovereignty even unwillingly,

By the decree of fate, however, evil counsel has taken possession of your mind,

All that is the outcome of my sins, due to which the tide has, turned against me in an inappropriate moment,

Beautiful Ayodhya shall flourish again under the sovereignty of Rama, the abode of all virtues,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please

Life and wife

Jai Sri Ram,
Either go back upon your words or forbear,

Pray do not wail like a woman,

Life and wife, sons home, wealth and the land have been spoken of as no better than a straw in the eyes of a man who is true to this word,

On hearing these poignant words the king exclaimed, say what you will, you are not to blame for it, it is my doom which has possessed you like a devil and is using you as its mouthpiece,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks please

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please

ocean of adversity

Jai sri Ram,
So saying, the wicked woman rose and stood up as though it were a swollen stream of passion,

That had issued from the mountain of sin and overflowing with water of anger, was too terrible to look at,

The Two boons she had asked for represented its banks, her inexorable obstinacy corresponded to its swift,

And the impaling force of Manthara's words stood for its eddies;uprooting the king like a tree the river headed towards the ocean of adversity,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please  

O King

Jai sri Ram,
Rama is virtues and no less virtuous is his Mother,

I have known all of you-will repay with vengeance the benefit she has sought to confer upon me,

If Rama does not retire to the woods assuming the garb of a hermit as soon as the day break,

Death for me and ill repute for you will be the result, bear this in mind-O King,

May Lord Bless all,

Thanks Please 

Hare Krishna

Jai sri Ram
Hearing these soft words the evil minded queen blazed up liked like the fire on which has fallen an oblation of clarified butter,

She Said You might as well try millions of devices,

But your stratagem shall not avail with me,

Either Grant my request or earn a bad reputation by refusing it, i am not fond of much wiles,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please

i tell you sincerely

Jai Sri Ram
A fish may rather survive even without water

A serpent may drag on a miserable and wrenched existence without gem in its head

But i tell you sincerely with a guileless heart that i cannot live without Rama,

Be assured in your mind, my wise darling, that my very existence depends on the sight of sri Rama,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please

No More of jesting or anger

Jai Sri Ram,
Hearing Now what you have asked,

I have begun to suspect whether your profession of love was genuine,

How could he whose temperament was congenial even to an enemy act contrary to the will of his own mother,

No More of jesting or anger, make a reasonable and thoughtful request so that i may now regale my eyes on the sight of Bharata's installation on the throne,

May Lord Bless all,

Thanks Please  

you too spoke well of him and loved him,

Jai sri Ram,
Only one thing has caused me pain; the second boon that you have asked for something incongruous,

My heart is still burning with the agony caused by it,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please

Bharata will be the prince regent

Casting all confidence and affection to the winds,

O timid Lady, Bharata and Rama are my two eyes, i vouch for it calling Sankara as my witness,

I will positively dispatch a messenger at day break and two brothers will speedily come on hearing the message, then after fixing an auspicious date and making all preparations i will solemnly bestow the kingdom on Bharata,

May lord bless all,

Thanks please 

dreadful and inflexible

Jai sri Ram
With a malicious mind for its hilt and remorselessness for its edge,

Whetted on the grindstone in the shape of the humpback Manthara,

The King, saw that the sword was dreadful and inflexible and said to himself,

It is really going to take my life-then seeing his heart, he politely spoke to her in endearing terms,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks please

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please 

you promised me

Jai sri Ram,
Refuse the boons you promised me,

Abandon the truth and court infamy in the world,

May Lord bless all,

May Lord bless all,

Thanks Please
