O Mārīca, my dear one, please listen to my words as I speak. I am in distress, and for me, who is thus afflicted, you are indeed the supreme refuge.

You know Janasthāna, the place where my brother Khara, and the mighty-armed Dūṣaṇa, and my sister Śūrpaṇakhā reside.

And also Triśirā, the greatly energetic, flesh-eating demon, is there; along with many other brave night-roaming demons who are skilled marksmen.

By my command, the Rākṣasas reside and occupy this dwelling, relentlessly harassing in the great forest those ascetics who are practitioners of natural law (dharma).

Fourteen thousand Rākṣasas of dreadful deeds, valorous, successful in their aims, and obedient to Khara's will (karma).

6.
Indeed, those exceedingly mighty Rākṣasas, who are now dwelling in Janasthāna, fully prepared, confronted Rāma in battle.

That enraged Rāma, at the forefront of battle, without speaking anything harsh, wielded his bow with arrows.

9.
Khara was slain in battle, and Dūṣaṇa was struck down. Furthermore, after Triśiras was also killed, the Daṇḍaka region (or its inhabitants) was rendered free from fear.

Expelled by his angry father, accompanied by his wife, and with a diminished livelihood - he is that Rāma, the destroyer of that army, the disgrace of kṣatriyas.

11.
He is ill-behaved, harsh, fierce, foolish, greedy, and unable to control his senses. Having abandoned the natural law (dharma), he possesses an unrighteous character, constantly engaged in harming living beings.

12.
My sister was disfigured in the forest by him who, without any prior enmity and relying solely on his strength, cut off her ears and nose.

13.
I will seize and bring his wife, Sita, who is like a divine maiden, from Janasthana. Please be my helper (sahāya) in that endeavor.
त्वया ह्यहं सहायेन पार्श्वस्थेन महाबल ।
भ्रातृभिश्च सुरान्युद्धे समग्रान्नाभिचिन्तये ॥१४॥
भ्रातृभिश्च सुरान्युद्धे समग्रान्नाभिचिन्तये ॥१४॥

yuddhe samagrān surān ca bhrātṛbhiḥ na abhicintaye
yuddhe samagrān surān ca bhrātṛbhiḥ na abhicintaye
14.
Indeed, O mighty one (mahābala), with you as my helper (sahāya) standing by my side, I would not fear all the gods and their brothers in battle.
तत् सहायो भव त्वं मे समर्थो ह्यसि राक्षस ।
वीर्ये युद्धे च दर्पे च न ह्यस्ति सदृशस्तव ॥१५॥
वीर्ये युद्धे च दर्पे च न ह्यस्ति सदृशस्तव ॥१५॥

vīrye yuddhe ca darpe ca na hi asti sadṛśaḥ tava
15.
tat tvam me sahāyaḥ bhava; hi rākṣasa,
samarthaḥ asi; hi tava sadṛśaḥ vīrye ca yuddhe ca darpe ca na asti
samarthaḥ asi; hi tava sadṛśaḥ vīrye ca yuddhe ca darpe ca na asti
15.
Therefore, you become my helper, for you are indeed capable, O Rakshasa. Truly, there is no one equal to you in valor, in battle, or in arrogance.
एतदर्थमहं प्राप्तस्त्वत्समीपं निशाचर ।
शृणु तत् कर्म साहाय्ये यत् कार्यं वचनान्मम ॥१६॥

mama vacanāt tat yat sāhāyye kāryam karma śṛṇu
mama vacanāt tat yat sāhāyye kāryam karma śṛṇu
16.
For this very purpose, O night-wanderer, I have come near you. Listen to that task (karma) which must be done as assistance (sāhāyye) according to my words.
सौवर्णस्त्वं मृगो भूत्वा चित्रो रजतबिन्दुभिः ।

17.
You, becoming a golden deer, adorned with silver spots, should wander in that hermitage (āśrame) of Rāma, in front of Sītā.
त्वां तु निःसंशयं सीता दृष्ट्वा तु मृगरूपिणम् ।
गृह्यतामिति भर्तारं लक्ष्मणं चाभिधास्यति ॥१८॥
गृह्यतामिति भर्तारं लक्ष्मणं चाभिधास्यति ॥१८॥
18. tvāṃ tu niḥsaṃśayaṃ sītā dṛṣṭvā tu mṛgarūpiṇam ,

18.

gṛhyatām iti bhartāram Lakṣmaṇam ca abhidhāsyati
gṛhyatām iti bhartāram Lakṣmaṇam ca abhidhāsyati
18.
Sītā tu tvām mṛgarūpiṇam niḥsaṃśayam dṛṣṭvā tu
bhartāram Lakṣmaṇam ca gṛhyatām iti abhidhāsyati
bhartāram Lakṣmaṇam ca gṛhyatām iti abhidhāsyati
18.
Sītā, having surely seen you in the form of a deer, will certainly say to her husband and Lakṣmaṇa, 'He must be captured!'
ततस्तयोरपाये तु शून्ये सीतां यथासुखम् ।
निराबाधो हरिष्यामि राहुश्चन्द्रप्रभामिव ॥१९॥
निराबाधो हरिष्यामि राहुश्चन्द्रप्रभामिव ॥१९॥
19. tatastayorapāye tu śūnye sītāṃ yathāsukham ,
nirābādho hariṣyāmi rāhuścandraprabhāmiva.
nirābādho hariṣyāmi rāhuścandraprabhāmiva.
19.
tataḥ tayoḥ apāye tu śūnye Sītām yathāsukham
| nirābādhaḥ hariṣyāmi Rāhuḥ candraprabhām iva
| nirābādhaḥ hariṣyāmi Rāhuḥ candraprabhām iva
19.
tataḥ tu tayoḥ apāye śūnye nirābādhaḥ Sītām
yathāsukham hariṣyāmi Rāhuḥ candraprabhām iva
yathāsukham hariṣyāmi Rāhuḥ candraprabhām iva
19.
Then, when those two are gone, in the deserted place, I will abduct Sītā as I please, unimpeded, just as Rāhu seizes the moon's radiance.
ततः पश्चात् सुखं रामे भार्याहरणकर्शिते ।
विस्रब्धं प्रहरिष्यामि कृतार्थेनान्तरात्मना ॥२०॥
विस्रब्धं प्रहरिष्यामि कृतार्थेनान्तरात्मना ॥२०॥

tataḥ paścāt bhāryāharaṇakarśite rāme kṛtārthena
antarātmanā visrabdham sukham prahariṣyāmi
antarātmanā visrabdham sukham prahariṣyāmi
20.
Afterward, with my inner self (ātman) having achieved its purpose, I will confidently strike Rama, who will be weakened by the abduction of his wife.
तस्य रामकथां श्रुत्वा मारीचस्य महात्मनः ।
शुष्कं समभवद्वक्त्रं परित्रस्तो बभूव च ॥२१॥

21.
Having heard that story of Rama from the great-souled Maricha, [Ravana's] face became dry and he became utterly terrified.
स रावणं त्रस्तविषण्णचेता महावने रामपराक्रमज्ञः ।
कृताञ्जलिस्तत्त्वमुवाच वाक्यं हितं च तस्मै हितमात्मनश्च ॥२२॥
कृताञ्जलिस्तत्त्वमुवाच वाक्यं हितं च तस्मै हितमात्मनश्च ॥२२॥

22.

22.

tasmai rāvaṇam tattvam ca hitam
vākyam ca ātmanaḥ hitam uvāca
22.
With a terrified and dejected mind, knowing Rama's valor, he (Maricha) stood in the great forest with folded hands and spoke words of truth that were beneficial both to Ravana and to himself.
