tasya aham anujaḥ bhrātā vibhīṣaṇaḥ iti śrutaḥ
10. His name is Rāvaṇa, the wicked demon, lord of the rākṣasas. I am his younger brother, known as Vibhīṣaṇa.

13. saḥ ca na pratijagrāha rāvaṇaḥ kālacoditaḥ
ucyamānaḥ hitam vākyam viparītaḥ iva auṣadham
13. But Rāvaṇa, urged on by fate (kāla), did not accept it, just as a sick person does not accept beneficial medicine when it is offered to him.
सो ऽहं परुषितस्तेन दासवच्चावमानितः ।
त्यक्त्वा पुत्रांश्च दारांश्च राघवं शरणं गतः ॥१४॥

sarvalokaśaraṇyāya rāghavāya mahātmane
15. Quickly announce to the great-souled Rāma, who is the refuge of all beings, that Vibhīṣaṇa has arrived.

लक्ष्मणस्याग्रतो रामं संरब्धमिदमब्रवीत् ॥१६॥

16. sugrīvaḥ laghuvikramaḥ etat vacanam tu śrutvā
lakṣmaṇasya agrataḥ rāmam saṃrabdham idam abravīt
16. Having heard this statement, Sugrīva, who was swift in valor, spoke these agitated words to Rāma in front of Lakṣmaṇa.
रावणस्यानुजो भ्राता विभीषण इति श्रुतः ।
चतुर्भिः सह रक्षोभिर्भवन्तं शरणं गतः ॥१७॥

caturbhiḥ rakṣobhiḥ saha bhavantam śaraṇam gataḥ
17. Rāvaṇa's younger brother, known as Vibhīṣaṇa, has approached you for refuge along with four other Rākṣasas.
रावणेन प्रणिहितं तमवेहि विभीषणम् ।
तस्याहं निग्रहं मन्ये क्षमं क्षमवतां वर ॥१८॥
18. rāvaṇena praṇihitaṃ tamavehi vibhīṣaṇam ,
tasyāhaṃ nigrahaṃ manye kṣamaṃ kṣamavatāṃ vara.
18. rāvaṇena praṇihitam tam avehi vibhīṣaṇam tasya
aham nigraham manye kṣamam kṣamavatām vara
18. kṣamavatām vara rāvaṇena praṇihitam tam
vibhīṣaṇam avehi aham tasya nigraham kṣamam manye
18. Consider him, Vibhīṣaṇa, to be someone dispatched by Rāvaṇa. I deem his apprehension suitable, O best among the capable.
राक्षसो जिह्मया बुद्ध्या संदिष्टो ऽयमुपस्थितः ।
प्रहर्तुं मायया छन्नो विश्वस्ते त्वयि राघव ॥१९॥
19. rākṣaso jihmayā buddhyā saṃdiṣṭo'yamupasthitaḥ ,
prahartuṃ māyayā channo viśvaste tvayi rāghava.
19. rākṣasaḥ jihmayā buddhyā saṃdiṣṭaḥ ayam upasthitaḥ

19. rāghava jihmayā buddhyā saṃdiṣṭaḥ ayam rākṣasaḥ
upasthitaḥ māyayā channaḥ tvayi viśvaste prahartum
19. O Rāghava, this demon, dispatched with deceitful intent, has presented himself. Concealed by illusion (māyā), he intends to strike you when you are unsuspecting.
बध्यतामेष तीव्रेण दण्डेन सचिवैः सह ।
रावणस्य नृशंसस्य भ्राता ह्येष विभीषणः ॥२०॥
20. badhyatāmeṣa tīvreṇa daṇḍena sacivaiḥ saha ,

20. eṣa sacivaiḥ saha tīvreṇa daṇḍena badhyatām
hi eṣa nṛśaṃsasya rāvaṇasya bhrātā vibhīṣaṇaḥ
20. Let this one be severely punished along with his companions, for this Vibhīṣaṇa is indeed the brother of the cruel Rāvaṇa.
एवमुक्त्वा तु तं रामं संरब्धो वाहिनीपतिः ।
वाक्यज्ञो वाक्यकुशलं ततो मौनमुपागमत् ॥२१॥
21. evamuktvā tu taṃ rāmaṃ saṃrabdho vāhinīpatiḥ ,

vākyajñaḥ vāhinīpatiḥ tataḥ maunam upāgamat
21. Having thus spoken to Rāma, who was skilled in speech, the enraged chief of the army, himself eloquent, then fell silent.

समीपस्थानुवाचेदं हनूमत्प्रमुखान् हरीन् ॥२२॥
22. sugrīvasya tu tadvākyaṃ śrutvā rāmo mahābalaḥ ,
samīpasthānuvācedaṃ hanūmatpramukhān harīn.
22. sugrīvasya tu tat vākyam śrutvā rāmaḥ mahābalaḥ
| samīpasthān uvāca idam hanūmatpramukhān harīn
22. mahābalaḥ rāmaḥ tu sugrīvasya tat vākyam śrutvā
hanūmatpramukhān samīpasthān harīn idam uvāca
22. Having heard that statement of Sughrīva, the exceedingly mighty Rāma then spoke this to the monkeys standing nearby, with Hanūmat at their head.
यदुक्तं कपिराजेन रावणावरजं प्रति ।
वाक्यं हेतुमदत्यर्थं भवद्भिरपि तच्छ्रुतम् ॥२३॥

hetumat atyartham bhavadbhiḥ api tat śrutam
23. kapirājena rāvaṇāvarajam prati yat hetumat atyartham vākyam uktam,
tat bhavadbhiḥ api śrutam
23. The statement, full of excellent reasons, that was spoken by the king of monkeys to Rāvaṇa's younger brother, has also been heard by all of you.
सुहृदा ह्यर्थकृच्छेषु युक्तं बुद्धिमता सता ।
समर्थेनापि संदेष्टुं शाश्वतीं भूतिमिच्छता ॥२४॥

24. hi arthakṛcchreṣu suhṛdā buddhimatā satā samarthena
api śāśvatīm bhūtim icchatā saṃdeṣṭum yuktam
24. Indeed, in times of distress concerning wealth, it is appropriate for a wise, virtuous, and capable friend, who desires lasting prosperity, to offer counsel.
इत्येवं परिपृष्टास्ते स्वं स्वं मतमतन्द्रिताः ।
सोपचारं तदा राममूचुर्हितचिकीर्षवः ॥२५॥

25. iti evam paripṛṣṭāḥ atandritāḥ hitacikīrṣavaḥ
te tadā svam svam matam sopacāram rāmam ūcuḥ
25. Thus questioned, they, being vigilant and desiring his well-being, then respectfully conveyed their individual opinions to Rāma.
अज्ञातं नास्ति ते किं चित्त्रिषु लोकेषु राघव ।
आत्मानं पूजयन् राम पृच्छस्यस्मान् सुहृत्तया ॥२६॥
26. ajñātaṃ nāsti te kiṃ cittriṣu lokeṣu rāghava ,
ātmānaṃ pūjayan rāma pṛcchasyasmān suhṛttayā.
26. ajñātam na asti te kim cit triṣu lokeṣu rāghava
ātmānam pūjayan rāma pṛcchasi asmān suhṛttayā
26. rāghava! te triṣu lokeṣu kim cit ajñātam na asti.
rāma! ātmānam pūjayan suhṛttayā asmān pṛcchasi.
26. O Rāghava, nothing at all is unknown to you in the three worlds. O Rāma, you are (implicitly) honoring your own self (ātman) by questioning us out of friendship.
त्वं हि सत्यव्रतः शूरो धार्मिको दृढविक्रमः ।
परीक्ष्य कारा स्मृतिमान्निसृष्टात्मा सुहृत्सु च ॥२७॥

parīkṣya kārā smṛtimān nisṛṣṭātmā suhṛtsu ca
27. tvam hi satyavrataḥ śūraḥ dhārmikaḥ dṛḍhavikramaḥ
parīkṣya kārā smṛtimān nisṛṣṭātmā suhṛtsu ca
27. You are indeed true to your vows, brave, righteous, and resolute in your prowess. You are one who acts after due deliberation, is mindful, and dedicated to your friends.
तस्मादेकैकशस्तावद्ब्रुवन्तु सचिवास्तव ।
हेतुतो मतिसंपन्नाः समर्थाश्च पुनः पुनः ॥२८॥
28. tasmādekaikaśastāvadbruvantu sacivāstava ,
hetuto matisaṃpannāḥ samarthāśca punaḥ punaḥ.
28. tasmāt ekaikaśaḥ tāvat bruvantu sacivāḥ tava
hetutaḥ matisampannāḥ samarthāḥ ca punaḥ punaḥ
28. tasmāt tāvat tava sacivāḥ ekaikaśaḥ hetutaḥ
matisampannāḥ samarthāḥ ca punaḥ punaḥ bruvantu
28. Therefore, let your ministers, who are endowed with intelligence and are capable, speak one by one, presenting their reasons thoroughly.
इत्युक्ते राघवायाथ मतिमानङ्गदो ऽग्रतः ।
विभीषणपरीक्षार्थमुवाच वचनं हरिः ॥२९॥
29. ityukte rāghavāyātha matimānaṅgado'grataḥ ,
vibhīṣaṇaparīkṣārthamuvāca vacanaṃ hariḥ.
29. iti ukte rāghavāya atha matimān aṅgadaḥ agrataḥ
vibhīṣaṇaparīkṣārtham uvāca vacanam hariḥ
29. iti ukte rāghavāya atha matimān aṅgadaḥ agrataḥ
hariḥ vibhīṣaṇaparīkṣārtham vacanam uvāca
29. After this was thus said to Rāghava (Rāma), then the intelligent Angada was at the forefront. Hanumān spoke words for the purpose of testing Vibhīṣaṇa.
शत्रोः सकाशात् संप्राप्तः सर्वथा शङ्क्य एव हि ।
विश्वासयोग्यः सहसा न कर्तव्यो विभीषणः ॥३०॥
30. śatroḥ sakāśāt saṃprāptaḥ sarvathā śaṅkya eva hi ,
viśvāsayogyaḥ sahasā na kartavyo vibhīṣaṇaḥ.
30. śatroḥ sakāśāt samprāptaḥ sarvathā śaṅkyaḥ eva
hi viśvāsayogyaḥ sahasā na kartavyaḥ vibhīṣaṇaḥ
30. śatroḥ sakāśāt samprāptaḥ sarvathā eva hi śaṅkyaḥ.
vibhīṣaṇaḥ sahasā viśvāsayogyaḥ na kartavyaḥ
30. One who has arrived from the enemy's side is indeed to be entirely suspected. Vibhīṣaṇa should not be rashly considered trustworthy.
छादयित्वात्मभावं हि चरन्ति शठबुद्धयः ।
प्रहरन्ति च रन्ध्रेषु सो ऽनर्थः सुमहान्भवेत् ॥३१॥
31. chādayitvātmabhāvaṃ hi caranti śaṭhabuddhayaḥ ,
praharanti ca randhreṣu so'narthaḥ sumahānbhavet.
31. chādayitvā ātmabhāvaṃ hi caranti śaṭhabuddhayaḥ
praharanti ca randhreṣu saḥ anarthaḥ sumahān bhavet
31. śaṭhabuddhayaḥ hi ātmabhāvaṃ chādayitvā caranti ca randhreṣu praharanti.
saḥ sumahān anarthaḥ bhavet
31. Cunning individuals indeed act by concealing their inner disposition (ātmabhāva), and they strike at vulnerabilities. This would certainly be a very great misfortune.
अर्थानर्थौ विनिश्चित्य व्यवसायं भजेत ह ।
गुणतः संग्रहं कुर्याद्दोषतस्तु विसर्जयेत् ॥३२॥
32. arthānarthau viniścitya vyavasāyaṃ bhajeta ha ,
guṇataḥ saṃgrahaṃ kuryāddoṣatastu visarjayet.
32. arthānarthau viniścitya vyavasāyaṃ bhajeta ha
guṇataḥ saṃgrahaṃ kuryāt doṣataḥ tu visarjayet
32. arthānarthau viniścitya vyavasāyam ha bhajeta.
guṇataḥ saṃgraham kuryāt tu doṣataḥ visarjayet
32. Having thoroughly ascertained what is advantageous and what is disadvantageous, one should indeed undertake an endeavor. One should accept something based on its merits and reject it based on its flaws.
यदि दोषो महांस्तस्मिंस्त्यज्यतामविशङ्कितम् ।
गुणान् वापि बहूञ्ज्ञात्वा संग्रहः क्रियतां नृप ॥३३॥
33. yadi doṣo mahāṃstasmiṃstyajyatāmaviśaṅkitam ,
guṇān vāpi bahūñjñātvā saṃgrahaḥ kriyatāṃ nṛpa.
33. yadi doṣaḥ mahān tasmin tyajyatām aviśaṅkitam
guṇān vā api bahūn jñātvā saṃgrahaḥ kriyatām nṛpa
33. nṛpa,
yadi tasmin mahān doṣaḥ (asti),
(tadā) aviśaṅkitam tyajyatām.
vā api bahūn guṇān jñātvā saṃgrahaḥ kriyatām.
33. O King, if there is a great flaw in something, let it be abandoned without hesitation. Or, if many merits are known, let it be accepted.
शरभस्त्वथ निश्चित्य सार्थं वचनमब्रवीत् ।
क्षिप्रमस्मिन्नरव्याघ्र चारः प्रतिविधीयताम् ॥३४॥
34. śarabhastvatha niścitya sārthaṃ vacanamabravīt ,
kṣipramasminnaravyāghra cāraḥ pratividhīyatām.
34. śarabhaḥ tu atha niścitya sārthaṃ vacanam abravīt
kṣipram asmin naravyāghra cāraḥ pratividhīyatām
34. atha śarabhaḥ tu sārtham vacanam niścitya abravīt (yat) naravyāghra,
asmin kṣipram cāraḥ pratividhīyatām
34. Then Sarabha, having decided on a beneficial course, spoke these words: 'O tiger among men, let swift intelligence gathering be arranged in this matter!'
प्रणिधाय हि चारेण यथावत् सूक्ष्मबुद्धिना ।
परीक्ष्य च ततः कार्यो यथान्यायं परिग्रहः ॥३५॥
35. praṇidhāya hi cāreṇa yathāvat sūkṣmabuddhinā ,
parīkṣya ca tataḥ kāryo yathānyāyaṃ parigrahaḥ.
35. praṇidhāya hi cāreṇa yathāvat sūkṣmabuddhinā
parīkṣya ca tataḥ kāryaḥ yathānyāyaṃ parigrahaḥ
35. hi sūkṣmabuddhinā cāreṇa yathāvat praṇidhāya ca
parīkṣya tataḥ yathānyāyaṃ parigrahaḥ kāryaḥ
35. Indeed, after deploying spies with subtle intelligence and having them properly investigate the situation, any acceptance (of a person or a course of action) should then be carried out in accordance with natural law (dharma).
जाम्बवांस्त्वथ संप्रेक्ष्य शास्त्रबुद्ध्या विचक्षणः ।
वाक्यं विज्ञापयामास गुणवद्दोषवर्जितम् ॥३६॥
36. jāmbavāṃstvatha saṃprekṣya śāstrabuddhyā vicakṣaṇaḥ ,
vākyaṃ vijñāpayāmāsa guṇavaddoṣavarjitam.
36. jāmbavān tu atha samprekṣya śāstrabuddhyā vicakṣaṇaḥ
vākyaṃ vijñāpayāmāsa guṇavat doṣavarjitam
36. atha vicakṣaṇaḥ jāmbavān śāstrabuddhyā samprekṣya
guṇavat doṣavarjitam vākyam vijñāpayāmāsa
36. Then, the discerning Jambavan, having considered the matter with an intellect guided by sacred texts, presented a statement that was meritorious and free from any flaws.
बद्धवैराच्च पापाच्च राक्षसेन्द्राद्विभीषणः ।
अदेश काले संप्राप्तः सर्वथा शङ्क्यतामयम् ॥३७॥
37. baddhavairācca pāpācca rākṣasendrādvibhīṣaṇaḥ ,
adeśa kāle saṃprāptaḥ sarvathā śaṅkyatāmayam.
37. baddhavairāt ca pāpāt ca rākṣasendrāt vibhīṣaṇaḥ
adeśa kāle samprāptaḥ sarvathā śaṅkyatām ayam
37. ayam vibhīṣaṇaḥ baddhavairāt ca pāpāt ca rākṣasendrāt
adeśa kāle samprāptaḥ sarvathā śaṅkyatām
37. This Vibhishana, having arrived from the lord of rākṣasas (Rāvaṇa), who is bound by enmity and sin, at an inappropriate place and time, should be thoroughly suspected in every way.
ततो मैन्दस्तु संप्रेक्ष्य नयापनयकोविदः ।
वाक्यं वचनसंपन्नो बभाषे हेतुमत्तरम् ॥३८॥
38. tato maindastu saṃprekṣya nayāpanayakovidaḥ ,
vākyaṃ vacanasaṃpanno babhāṣe hetumattaram.
38. tataḥ maindaḥ tu samprekṣya nayāpanayakovidaḥ
vākyaṃ vacanasaṃpannaḥ babhāṣe hetumattaram
38. tataḥ tu nayāpanayakovidaḥ vacanasaṃpannaḥ
maindaḥ samprekṣya hetumattaram vākyam babhāṣe
38. Then Mainda, being well-versed in proper and improper policy and possessing eloquent speech, having reflected, delivered a very logical statement.
वचनं नाम तस्यैष रावणस्य विभीषणः ।
पृच्छ्यतां मधुरेणायं शनैर्नरवरेश्वर ॥३९॥
39. vacanaṃ nāma tasyaiṣa rāvaṇasya vibhīṣaṇaḥ ,
pṛcchyatāṃ madhureṇāyaṃ śanairnaravareśvara.
39. vacanam nāma tasya eṣa rāvaṇasya vibhīṣaṇaḥ |
pṛcchyatām madhureṇa ayam śanaiḥ naravareśvara
39. eṣa rāvaṇasya vibhīṣaṇaḥ nāma naravareśvara
ayam madhureṇa śanaiḥ pṛcchyatām
39. This is Vibhīṣaṇa, Rāvaṇa's brother by name. O lord of best men (naravareśvara), let him be questioned gently and slowly.
भावमस्य तु विज्ञाय ततस्तत्त्वं करिष्यसि ।
यदि दृष्टो न दुष्टो वा बुद्धिपूर्वं नरर्षभ ॥४०॥
40. bhāvamasya tu vijñāya tatastattvaṃ kariṣyasi ,
yadi dṛṣṭo na duṣṭo vā buddhipūrvaṃ nararṣabha.
40. bhāvam asya tu vijñāya tataḥ tattvam kariṣyasi |
yadi dṛṣṭaḥ na duṣṭaḥ vā buddhipūrvam nararṣabha
40. asya bhāvam vijñāya tu tataḥ buddhipūrvam tattvam
kariṣyasi nararṣabha yadi dṛṣṭaḥ na duṣṭaḥ vā
40. But after understanding his intention, you will then determine the truth with forethought, O best among men (nararṣabha), regardless of whether he is perceived as innocent or wicked.
अथ संस्कारसंपन्नो हनूमान् सचिवोत्तमः ।
उवाच वचनं श्लक्ष्णमर्थवन्मधुरं लघु ॥४१॥
41. atha saṃskārasaṃpanno hanūmān sacivottamaḥ ,
uvāca vacanaṃ ślakṣṇamarthavanmadhuraṃ laghu.
41. atha saṃskārasampannaḥ hanumān sacivottamaḥ |
uvāca vacanam ślakṣṇam arthavat madhuram laghu
41. atha saṃskārasampannaḥ sacivottamaḥ hanumān
ślakṣṇam arthavat madhuram laghu vacanam uvāca
41. Then Hanumān, the best among ministers, endowed with refined qualities (saṃskāra), spoke words that were smooth, meaningful, sweet, and concise.
न भवन्तं मतिश्रेष्ठं समर्थं वदतां वरम् ।
अतिशाययितुं शक्तो बृहस्पतिरपि ब्रुवन् ॥४२॥
42. na bhavantaṃ matiśreṣṭhaṃ samarthaṃ vadatāṃ varam ,
atiśāyayituṃ śakto bṛhaspatirapi bruvan.
42. na bhavantam matiśreṣṭham samartham vadatām
varam | atiśāyayitum śaktaḥ bṛhaspatiḥ api bruvan
42. bṛhaspatiḥ api bruvan bhavantam matiśreṣṭham
samartham vadatām varam atiśāyayitum na śaktaḥ
42. Even Bṛhaspati, when speaking, is not capable of surpassing you, who are the foremost among the intelligent, the capable one, and the best of speakers.
न वादान्नापि संघर्षान्नाधिक्यान्न च कामतः ।
वक्ष्यामि वचनं राजन्यथार्थं रामगौरवात् ॥४३॥
43. na vādānnāpi saṃgharṣānnādhikyānna ca kāmataḥ ,
vakṣyāmi vacanaṃ rājanyathārthaṃ rāmagauravāt.
43. na vādāt na api saṃgharṣāt na ādhikyāt na ca kāmataḥ
vakṣyāmi vacanam rājan yathārtham rāmagauravāt
43. rājan vādāt na api saṃgharṣāt na ādhikyāt ca
kāmataḥ na rāmagauravāt yathārtham vacanam vakṣyāmi
43. O King, I will speak these words truly, not out of any argument, conflict, superiority, or personal desire, but solely due to my respect for Rama.
अर्थानर्थनिमित्तं हि यदुक्तं सचिवैस्तव ।
तत्र दोषं प्रपश्यामि क्रिया न ह्युपपद्यते ॥४४॥
44. arthānarthanimittaṃ hi yaduktaṃ sacivaistava ,
tatra doṣaṃ prapaśyāmi kriyā na hyupapadyate.
44. arthānarthanimittam hi yat uktam sacivaiḥ tava
tatra doṣam prapaśyāmi kriyā na hi upapadyate
44. tava sacivaiḥ arthānarthanimittam yat uktam hi
tatra doṣam prapaśyāmi hi kriyā na upapadyate
44. Indeed, I perceive a flaw in what your ministers have presented concerning favorable and unfavorable outcomes, because such an action is certainly not appropriate.
ऋते नियोगात् सामर्थ्यमवबोद्धुं न शक्यते ।
सहसा विनियोगो हि दोषवान्प्रतिभाति मे ॥४५॥
45. ṛte niyogāt sāmarthyamavaboddhuṃ na śakyate ,
sahasā viniyogo hi doṣavānpratibhāti me.
45. ṛte niyogāt sāmarthyam avaboddhum na śakyate
sahasā viniyogaḥ hi doṣavān pratibhāti me
45. niyogāt ṛte sāmarthyam avaboddhum na śakyate
hi sahasā viniyogaḥ me doṣavān pratibhāti
45. Capability cannot be ascertained without a clear command. Indeed, a hasty deployment (viniyoga) appears flawed to me.
चारप्रणिहितं युक्तं यदुक्तं सचिवैस्तव ।
अर्थस्यासंभवात्तत्र कारणं नोपपद्यते ॥४६॥
46. cārapraṇihitaṃ yuktaṃ yaduktaṃ sacivaistava ,
arthasyāsaṃbhavāttatra kāraṇaṃ nopapadyate.
46. cārapranihitam yuktam yat uktam sacivaiḥ tava
arthasya asaṃbhavāt tatra kāraṇam na upapadyate
46. tava sacivaiḥ yat cārapranihitam yuktam uktam
tatra arthasya asaṃbhavāt kāraṇam na upapadyate
46. What your ministers have stated as suitable concerning the deployment of spies (or intelligence from them), there, due to the impossibility of the underlying objective (artha), no justification holds.
अदेश काले संप्राप्त इत्ययं यद्विभीषणः ।
विवक्षा चात्र मे ऽस्तीयं तां निबोध यथा मति ॥४७॥
47. adeśa kāle saṃprāpta ityayaṃ yadvibhīṣaṇaḥ ,
vivakṣā cātra me'stīyaṃ tāṃ nibodha yathā mati.
47. adeśa kāle samprāptaḥ iti ayam yat vibhīṣaṇaḥ
vivakṣā ca atra me asti iyam tām nibodha yathā mati
47. ayam vibhīṣaṇaḥ adeśa kāle samprāptaḥ iti yat atra
me iyam vivakṣā ca asti tām yathā mati nibodha
47. Regarding Vibhīṣaṇa's arrival at an improper time and place, I have a specific point I wish to make here. Please understand it as I comprehend.
स एष देशः कालश्च भवतीह यथा तथा ।
पुरुषात् पुरुषं प्राप्य तथा दोषगुणावपि ॥४८॥
48. sa eṣa deśaḥ kālaśca bhavatīha yathā tathā ,
puruṣāt puruṣaṃ prāpya tathā doṣaguṇāvapi.
48. saḥ eṣaḥ deśaḥ kālaḥ ca bhavati iha yathā tathā
puruṣāt puruṣam prāpya tathā doṣaguṇau api
48. iha saḥ eṣaḥ deśaḥ kālaḥ ca puruṣāt puruṣam
prāpya yathā tathā bhavati tathā doṣaguṇau api
48. This very place and time changes here from one person to another (puruṣa), and similarly, so do both faults and merits.
दौरात्म्यं रावणे दृष्ट्वा विक्रमं च तथा त्वयि ।
युक्तमागमनं तस्य सदृशं तस्य बुद्धितः ॥४९॥
49. daurātmyaṃ rāvaṇe dṛṣṭvā vikramaṃ ca tathā tvayi ,
yuktamāgamanaṃ tasya sadṛśaṃ tasya buddhitaḥ.
49. daurātmyaṃ rāvaṇe dṛṣṭvā vikramaṃ ca tathā tvayi
yuktam āgamanaṃ tasya sadṛśaṃ tasya buddhitaḥ
49. rāvaṇe daurātmyaṃ tathā tvayi vikramaṃ ca dṛṣṭvā
tasya āgamanaṃ yuktam tasya buddhitaḥ sadṛśam
49. Having observed Rāvaṇa's wickedness and your valor, his arrival is justified and consistent with his intelligence.
अज्ञातरूपैः पुरुषैः स राजन्पृच्छ्यतामिति ।
यदुक्तमत्र मे प्रेक्षा का चिदस्ति समीक्षिता ॥५०॥
50. ajñātarūpaiḥ puruṣaiḥ sa rājanpṛcchyatāmiti ,
yaduktamatra me prekṣā kā cidasti samīkṣitā.
50. ajñātarūpaiḥ puruṣaiḥ saḥ rājan pṛcchyatām iti
yat uktam atra me prekṣā kā cit asti samīkṣitā
50. rājan saḥ ajñātarūpaiḥ puruṣaiḥ pṛcchyatām iti
yat atra uktam me kā cit samīkṣitā prekṣā asti
50. Regarding the suggestion here, 'O King, let him be questioned by men in unknown forms,' I have a certain well-considered view.
पृच्छ्यमानो विशङ्केत सहसा बुद्धिमान् वचः ।
तत्र मित्रं प्रदुष्येत मिथ्यपृष्टं सुखागतम् ॥५१॥
51. pṛcchyamāno viśaṅketa sahasā buddhimān vacaḥ ,
tatra mitraṃ praduṣyeta mithyapṛṣṭaṃ sukhāgatam.
51. pṛcchyamānaḥ viśaṅketa sahasā buddhimān vacaḥ
tatra mitram praduṣyeta mithyāpṛṣṭam sukhāgatam
51. buddhimān pṛcchyamānaḥ sahasā vacaḥ viśaṅketa
tatra sukhāgatam mitram mithyāpṛṣṭam praduṣyeta
51. An intelligent person, when questioned abruptly, might become suspicious of the statement. In such a situation, a friend who has come willingly could become alienated if improperly questioned.
अशक्यः सहसा राजन्भावो वेत्तुं परस्य वै ।
अन्तः स्वभावैर्गीतैस्तैर्नैपुण्यं पश्यता भृशम् ॥५२॥
52. aśakyaḥ sahasā rājanbhāvo vettuṃ parasya vai ,
antaḥ svabhāvairgītaistairnaipuṇyaṃ paśyatā bhṛśam.
52. aśakyaḥ sahasā rājan bhāvaḥ vettum parasya vai antaḥ
svabhāvaiḥ gītaiḥ taiḥ naipuṇyam paśyatā bhṛśam
52. rājan,
parasya bhāvaḥ sahasā vettum aśakyaḥ vai.
antaḥ taiḥ gītaiḥ svabhāvaiḥ bhṛśam paśyatā naipuṇyam.
52. O King, it is indeed impossible to suddenly know the true disposition (bhāva) of another. One can perceive the subtlety (naipuṇya) greatly only by observing those inner natures (svabhāva) that are revealed.
न त्वस्य ब्रुवतो जातु लक्ष्यते दुष्टभावता ।
प्रसन्नं वदनं चापि तस्मान्मे नास्ति संशयः ॥५३॥
53. na tvasya bruvato jātu lakṣyate duṣṭabhāvatā ,
prasannaṃ vadanaṃ cāpi tasmānme nāsti saṃśayaḥ.
53. na tu asya bruvataḥ jātu lakṣyate duṣṭabhāvatā
prasannam vadanam ca api tasmāt me na asti saṃśayaḥ
53. tu asya bruvataḥ duṣṭabhāvatā jātu na lakṣyate.
ca api vadanam prasannam (asti),
tasmāt me saṃśayaḥ na asti.
53. However, no malevolent disposition (duṣṭabhāvatā) of his is ever perceived when he speaks. And his face is also serene; therefore, I have no doubt.
अशङ्कितमतिः स्वस्थो न शठः परिसर्पति ।
न चास्य दुष्टा वाक् चापि तस्मान्नास्तीह संशयः ॥५४॥
54. aśaṅkitamatiḥ svastho na śaṭhaḥ parisarpati ,
na cāsya duṣṭā vāk cāpi tasmānnāstīha saṃśayaḥ.
54. aśaṅkitamatiḥ svasthaḥ na śaṭhaḥ parisarpati na ca
asya duṣṭā vāk ca api tasmāt na asti iha saṃśayaḥ
54. aśaṅkitamatiḥ svasthaḥ (puruṣaḥ) śaṭhaḥ na parisarpati.
ca asya vāk api duṣṭā na (bhavati).
tasmāt iha saṃśayaḥ na asti.
54. One whose mind is free from suspicion (aśaṅkitamati) and who is self-possessed does not behave deceitfully like a rogue. And his speech (vāk) is also not wicked. Therefore, there is no doubt in this matter.
आकारश्छाद्यमानो ऽपि न शक्यो विनिगूहितुम् ।
बलाद्धि विवृणोत्येव भावमन्तर्गतं नृणाम् ॥५५॥
55. ākāraśchādyamāno'pi na śakyo vinigūhitum ,
balāddhi vivṛṇotyeva bhāvamantargataṃ nṛṇām.
55. ākāraḥ chādyamānaḥ api na śakyaḥ vinigūhitum
balāt hi vivṛṇoti eva bhāvam antargatam nṛṇām
55. nṛṇām antargatam bhāvam ākāraḥ chādyamānaḥ api
vinigūhitum na śakyaḥ hi balāt eva vivṛṇoti
55. Even if one's outward form or expression is concealed, it cannot be completely hidden. Indeed, it forcibly reveals the inner feeling or intention (bhāva) of people.
देशकालोपपन्नं च कार्यं कार्यविदां वर ।
सफलं कुरुते क्षिप्रं प्रयोगेणाभिसंहितम् ॥५६॥
56. deśakālopapannaṃ ca kāryaṃ kāryavidāṃ vara ,
saphalaṃ kurute kṣipraṃ prayogeṇābhisaṃhitam.
56. deśakāla upapannam ca kāryam kāryavidām vara
saphalam kurute kṣipram prayogeṇa abhisaṃhitam
56. kāryavidām vara deśakāla upapannam ca prayogeṇa
abhisaṃhitam kāryam kṣipram saphalam kurute
56. O best among those who know what to do! A task that is appropriate to the place and time, when undertaken with the right method, quickly makes it successful.
उद्योगं तव संप्रेक्ष्य मिथ्यावृत्तं च रावणम् ।
वालिनश्च वधं श्रुत्वा सुग्रीवं चाभिषेचितम् ॥५७॥
57. udyogaṃ tava saṃprekṣya mithyāvṛttaṃ ca rāvaṇam ,
vālinaśca vadhaṃ śrutvā sugrīvaṃ cābhiṣecitam.
57. udyogam tava samprekṣya mithyāvṛttam ca rāvaṇam
vālinaḥ ca vadham śrutvā sugrīvam ca abhiṣecitam
57. tava udyogam ca rāvaṇam mithyāvṛttam samprekṣya
ca vālinaḥ vadham ca sugrīvam abhiṣecitam śrutvā
57. Having observed your great endeavor, and Rāvaṇa's deceitful conduct, and having heard of Vāli's demise and Sugrīva's consecration (abhiṣeka)...
राज्यं प्रार्थयमानश्च बुद्धिपूर्वमिहागतः ।
एतावत्तु पुरस्कृत्य युज्यते त्वस्य संग्रहः ॥५८॥
58. rājyaṃ prārthayamānaśca buddhipūrvamihāgataḥ ,
etāvattu puraskṛtya yujyate tvasya saṃgrahaḥ.
58. rājyam prārthayamānaḥ ca buddhipūrvam iha āgataḥ
etāvat tu puraskṛtya yujyate tu asya saṃgrahaḥ
58. ca rājyam prārthayamānaḥ buddhipūrvam iha āgataḥ
tu etāvat puraskṛtya asya saṃgrahaḥ tu yujyate
58. And seeking the kingdom, he has come here with deliberation. Therefore, considering all these factors, his acceptance (saṃgraha) is indeed appropriate.
यथाशक्ति मयोक्तं तु राक्षसस्यार्जवं प्रति ।
त्वं प्रमाणं तु शेषस्य श्रुत्वा बुद्धिमतां वर ॥५९॥
59. yathāśakti mayoktaṃ tu rākṣasasyārjavaṃ prati ,
tvaṃ pramāṇaṃ tu śeṣasya śrutvā buddhimatāṃ vara.
59. yathāśakti mayā uktam tu rākṣasasya ārjavam prati
tvam pramāṇam tu śeṣasya śrutvā buddhimatām vara
59. O best among the wise, what I have expressed regarding the demon's (Vibhīṣaṇa's) integrity is to the best of my ability. You, having heard the remaining matters, are the ultimate authority.
