Chhand Text

आतुर बहोरि बिभंजि स्यंदन सूत हति ब्याकुल कियो। गिर्‌यो धरनि दसकंधर बिकलतर बान सत बेध्यो हियो॥ सारथी दूसर घालि रथ तेहि तुरत लंका लै गयो। रघुबीर बंधु प्रताप पुंज बहोरि प्रभु चरनन्हि नयो॥

Transliteration (IAST)

ātura bahori bibhañji syandana sūta hati byākula kiyo। giryo dharani dasakandhara bikalatara bāna sata bedhyo hiyo॥ sārathī dūsara ghāli ratha tehi turata laṅkā lai gayo। raghubīra bandhu pratāpa puñja bahori prabhu carananhi nayo॥

Meaning

In haste, he shattered the chariot again, killed the charioteer, and threw Ravana into distress. A hundred arrows pierced his heart, and the ten-headed one fell to the ground in anguish. Another charioteer placed him in the chariot and quickly carried him back to Lanka. Lakshmana, the treasure-house of Raghubir’s glory, again bowed at the Lord’s feet.
