There is  no comparison  to the extreme joy,

That we get by drinking   the nectar like story  Of Rama,

Oh Parrot , tell and tell  again,

The pretty war   of    Ramayana,

Requested  like this  that  parrot told,

Please  hear this with a clear  mind,

The God who wears the moon , Lord Shiva  , The god,

Told with a smile like a full moon,

Oh Goddess  with a full moon face  Turn your ears to me ,

And darling hear   with happiness ,  the holy   story  of Ramachandra.

Ramachandra  is the lord of the universe,

One who  is  the foundation of all souls , Lord  of mercy,

Hearing what   has been told by Hanuman,

With rising happiness   told as follows.

6.1 Sri Ramadhikalude  NIschayam

The decision of Rama  and others,

DEvakalaalum  asadhyamai ulla onnu,

Kevalam Maruthi   cheythathu orkkum vidhou,

Chithe  niroopikka olum  asakyammam,

Abdhi  satha yojanaaya  thamasramam,

Langichu   Rakshasa  veerareyum konnu,

Langayum   chuttu podichithu  vismayam,

Inganeyulla   bruthyanmaar   oruthanum,

Yengum oru nalum   illennu nirnayam.

When we think about  how Hanuman,

Did something which is  not possible for even devas to do,

We are  not able to even imagine  that ,

He crossed  an ocean which is hundred yojana   broad,

Killed   several Rakshasa  warriors,

And burnt the    entire   city of Lanka.

It is sure that servants like   this,

Would not be available  in any place ,

At any time in this world.

Yenneyum  bhanu vamsatheyum  Lakshmanan,

Thanneyum   mithrathmajneyum  kevalam,

Maithilye  kandu vannathu karanam,

Vathathmajan  paripalichithu   drudam.

Angane yayathellam   , iniyum, udan,

Yengine    varidhiye kadannudinnu,

Nakra  makara  chakradhi pari poorna m,

Ugramayulla samudhram   kadannu poi,

Ravanane  padayodum odukki  jnan,

Deviye yennu kanunnithu deivame.

The son of wind god   by seeing Sita  and coming back,

Has  looked after  me , the clan of Sun God  ,  Lakshmana,

 And also   Sugreeva  , the  son of Sun God , this is true.

Though all that   has taken place , immediately  ,

How would we cross   the treacherous  ocean  ,

Which is full of crocodiles,  whales  and whirl pools,

And then kill   Ravana   along with his great army ,

And bring  back  the   great lady, Oh God.

Rama Vakhyam kettu   sugreavanum   punar,

AAmayam   theerumaaru  aasu cholledinaan,

“Langanam cheythu    samudaratheyum batha,

Lankayum   basmikarichu avilambitham,

RAvanan thanne   sakalam kola   cheythu ,

DEviyeyum   kondu porunathundu jnan ,

Chintha yundakaruthe   athu may manase ,

Chinthayakunnathu karya vinasini.

Hearing the words  of  Rama , Sugreeva  ,

Told as suggestion out of the problem,

“After   crossing the ocean,

Without delay   burn Lanka  in to ashes ,

And  after killing  Ravana   along with his entire clan,

I would    bring back   the Goddess,

So please  do not have any worry in your mind,

AS  worry   is the destroyer  of  plans.”

AAralum  morthaal   jayichu koodathoru,

Soorar  yikkanaya    vanara sanchayam,

Vahniyil   chadanam yennu cholledilum,

Pinne yam yennu  chollunnavar alla ivar,

Varidhiye  kadappan upayam  parkka,

Neram ini kalayathe  Raghu pathe .

This group of monkey chiefs ,

Cannot be defeated   by anybody,

Even if we tell them, “jump in  to fire”,

They will never ever say later ,

See   some method  to cross   the  ocean,

Without wasting any more time, Oh chief of Raghu clan.

Lankayil  chennu naam  pukkithennakilo,

Lankesanum  marichan yennu  nirnayam,

LOkathrayathingal   aar yethirkkunnithu  ,

SAthwaram   sethu  bandikkum  maam drudam,

Valla  kanakkilundam   jayam thava  ,

Nalla nimithangal  kanka    Raghupathe  .

Suppose   we manage   to enter  Lanka,

Definitely the king of Lanka will meet with his death,

Oh Rama   , in the war  , who can oppose ,

You in all  the three   worlds?

Yu dry the  ocean with your  arrows,

And I would definitely build a bridge there ,

Somehow we   would see  victory,

Because   I am seeing good omens, Lord of Raghu clan.

Bhathi sakthyanvitha   mithra puthrokthikal,

Itham aakarnya  Kakulsthanum thal kshane  ,

Mumbil ammaru   thozhuthu nilkkum  Vayu,

SAmbhavanodu chodicharulinaan.

The words of Sugreeva  spoken with great devotion,

Were heard   by  Sri Rama and immediately  ,

He asked   Hanuman who was standing   saluting him.

6.2 Lanka  Vivaranam

Description of Lanka

Lankapurathingal  ulla  vruthanthangal,

SAnka   viheenam  yennodariyikka   nee ,

Kotta mathi   kidangu  yennivayokkave  ,

Katti ttharika   venam vachass  Bhavan.

Please tell me very clearly the news of Lanka,

Forts , ramparts ,   moat   and other   such aspects ,

You have to show them   clearly by words.

Yennathu kettu thozhuthu vathathmajan,

Nannai  thelinju  unarthichu  aruleedinaan,

“Madhye samudram  , trikutachalam valarnnu,

Athyunnatham athil moordhni Lanka  Puram,

Prana  bhayam millayatha  janangalkkuu,

Kaanaam  kanaka   Vimana samanamai.

Hearing that  That  Hanuman  saluted him,

And   with great clarity   told him,

“In the centre of the ocean is  the Trikuta mountain,

Which   is very tall    and on its top is   the city of Lanka,

And this  can be   seen as a golden spire ,

By the people   who do not have fear for life.”

It has a breadth   of seven hundred yojanas,

And There   is  a new golden wall  around it,

It has towers   on all four directions,

And each of these  greatly shining towers  has seven  stories,

And within that  and within that  ,

There are   seven  inner  rising  walls,

And in each row of these walls  there are  four towers,

Thus all round there  are  twenty eight towers,

And each of these  has very deep moats,

And then  there are   the mechanical securities,

And  to guard , the tower   on the eastern side  ,

There  are  ten thousand Rakshasas.

Hundred thousand  Rakshasa   soldiers,

Always stand for the protection of the   southern tower,

The western tower  is guarded   by thousand -thousand ,

Strong    Rakshasa   soldiers ,

The   northern tower  is guarded   by one lakh thousand ,

Extremely   powerful   Rakshasa soldiers,

About half the number of soldiers , guarding the sides.

Are gathered  to guard   the center  portion of the town,

And similar number guard   the private   quarters of the king,

And  double the number  guard  chamber  of the king.

The   dining hall  made   of gold,

The drama theatre  , closed avenues for walking   and also,

Rooms for taking bath,  Drinking halls,

Which are  clean   and is empty of people 

And all the decorations   of city of Lanka,

Are  easy to approach and cannot be even described by Adhi Sesha,

And I searched   at length   in this city,

And by the guidance   of my father  went,

To these place  of parks   which were  bewitching,

And there I saw   the Goddess Lakshmi and saluted her.

Anguleeyam koduthasu  chhoda rathnam ,

Ingu  vangi kondu   adayala   vakhyavum,

Kettu  vida   vangichu purapettu  ,

Kattiyen pinne  kuranjjoru avivekam,

Yennu venda    churukki paranjeeduvan,

Mannava   , lanka  purathingal    ullathil,

Nalonnu  sainyamoduki   vegena poi,

Kale   Dasamukhane kandu   chollinen.

After  giving your ring  , I got from her ,

The gem studded hair brooch  and the news of recognition,

And after    taking farewell  from her  I started back,

But  Later  I  did a very unwise   act ,

I destroyed   the garden and killed  those ,

Who were guarding it   with in a second  ,

And also killed   the young boy Aksha  Kumara ,

Who  is the son of the  king of Rakshasas ,

And not only that , let me tell it in brief,

Oh king , by quickly   going there ,

I killed one fourth of the army  of Lanka,

And in the morning I saw    the ten faced one  and told.

Nallathellam  pinne , Ravanan kopena,

Cholinaan   thannude bruthyarodu ippozhe,

Kolluga   vaikathivane.”  Yenna neram,

Kolluvaan   vannavarodu  vibheeshanan ,

Chollinaan    agrajajan thannodum aadharaal,

“Kollumarilla  , dhoothanmare yarume ,

Chollulla raja dharmam arinjavar,

Kollathe ayayukkuka    adayala   peduthathu,

Nallathakunnathu “ yennappol  Dasanan,

Chollinnan  valadhikku agni   koluthuvaan,

Chuttu   podichen  yezhunooru   yojana,

Vattamayulla    lanka puram sathwaram,

Mannava , Lankayilulla    padayil  ,

Nalonnum odukkinen  thwal pradathinaal.

The good things came afterwards  ,

Ravana  with anger told his servants,

“Kill him without any delay “  and at that  time,

Vibheeshana told those who came   to kill me,

As well as   to his elder brother   with respect  ,

“Nobody should kill  an emissary  ,

That  is  what people who know the royal justice say  ,

Instead  of killinghim,  he can be marked and sent back,”

And then the ten faced one told them ,

To set   fire   to my   tail and they covered my tail,

With a cloth dipped   in oil  and set fire   to it   ,

And then  I burnt  in to ashes   the seven hundred yojanas,

Of the   entire city  of Lanka  immediately  ,

And king  I have destroyed  one fourth  ,

Of the army  situated in Lanka  , by your grace .

Onnu kondum ini kala vilambanam,

Due to any reason   further   delay    is not good,

We will go and start  immediately .

Completely prepared for war   with great  spirits,

Let us start the   great journey with great valour  ,

Along with   a great monkey army   which is countless ,

And cross   without any doubt     ,

And   send to the  servants of god of death  ,

The servants of the  king of Rakshasas,

Destroy   the great pride     of the ten faced one ,

And at  the end of the war  , let us,

Bring back   the  lotus eyed  lady, oh lord ,

Who has lotus like eyes, who is the divine man   and Lord.

6.3 Yudha Yathra

The journey of the war

Anjana  nandanan vakkukal  kettu adha,

Ayakkulpanna modham  purappeduge varum,

Nakshatra  muthram athum   vijaya pradham,

Raksho janarshamaam  moolam  hathi pradham

After  hearing the words of son of Anjana,

Respecting it out of increasing desire ,

Raghava  told  immediately to Sugreeva

“ This is an auspicious time for victory ,

If we sent army now , happiness will come  ,

As soon as   we  start , the star  is uthra,

Which heralds  victory   and would,

Lead to the killing of Rakshasas.”

My  right   eye is twitching  and so,

All signs are  favourable to victory,

The very strong  Neela  who is the  commander in chief,

Would   look after  the entire army,

To look after  the front side  , centre    and both sides,

As well as   the army   at the back ,

Please depute    great monkeys .

Before the great  roaring   chiefs  ,

I would go riding on neck of Hanuman,

And  behind me  Lakshmana would ride  on top of Angadha ,

And  let  all  other  valorous ones,

March  strictly following Sugreeva.

Neelan  , Gajan, Gavayan  Gavakshan  Bali,

Neela, Gaja  , Gavya  , Gavaksha , Bali,

Mainda equal to Lord Shiva , Vividha,

The son of Brahma  , Sushena ,

THunga , Nala   , Sathabali  , Thara  ,

Are all very great monkey chiefs   who are  here ,

And we have an army  which is  beyond description,

Let us start together    without   any delay,

And  during the way  no one  should get jittered,

Itham  arul cheythu Markata    sainika,

Madhye  sahodharanodum   Raghupathi,

Nakshathra mandala madhye   vilanugunna  ,

Lokarthi  theertheeduvaan   markata  sanchayam,

Rathrinchareswara  rajyam prathi  ,

Paramasthayaa Vegaal  nadannu  thudanginaar .

After   telling like this   in the middle  of ,

The monkey army  , Rama along with Lakshmana  ,

Appeared as if  they are    moon and Sun,

In the middle of all stars  on the sky  ,

And thus the chiefs of the world   appeared  with clarity.

Shouting  jumping , playing   and exuberating,

That  monkey group marched   towards  .

The land of the king   of   Rakshasas ,

With  an aim at reducing the burden of the world ,

And they started walking speedily   with great interest.

Rathriyil okke niranju parannoru  ,

Vardhi  nadannu angu adukkunnathu  poale,

Maruthi thannude   kanda dese   ninnu,

Paril irangi  Raghu kula nadhanum  ,

Thareya  kandam amarnna   Soumithriyum,

Paril  izhinju  vananginaan   agrajam.

Like a sea  getting filled   up at  night ,

And walking   and settling down,

Running, jumping   in different forests,

Searching and eating    ripened fruits  ,

Crossing mountains  , forests   and  river waters ,

That monkey clan  who had bodies like  mountains,

Reached the northern  shore  of the southern sea ,

And  stood near   the Mahendra   mountain,

And Rama got down on the   earth,

From the    neck of  Hanuman,

And Lakshmana   got down from,

The neck of Angadha   and saluted Rama.

Sri Rama  Lakshmananmaarum  Kapeendranum,

Varidhi theeram  pravesichanntharam,

Sooryanum  varidhi thannude  Paschima  ,

Theeram pravesichathappol  nrupadhipan,

Yevam    arul cheythu   sandhyayum vandhichu  ,

Mevinaan   parvathagre  Raghu nadhanum.

After  Rama  , Lakshmana   and the king of monkeys ,

Reached    and entered   the shore of the ocean,

And the  Sun God  entered the western ,

Part of the  ocean , then Rama the king,

Told Sugreeva    the   following “ I would,

Go to say and finish the salutation of the dusk ,

Think about   the ways to  cross the ocean,

In the company   of some   brave people,

And come to a decision   immediately,

The monkey army  should be protected ,

By The Commanders of army as well as Neela  , the son of fire god,

From the   Rakshasas  as they  may trouble   at night.”

After telling this  and after finishing  the  salutation to dusk,

The son of  Raghu clan went  and stayed  on the mountain.

Vanara   vrundam  makaralayam  kandu,

Manase bheethi kalarnnu  maruvinaar,

Nakra  chakrougha   bhayankaram yethrayum,

Ithu tharanam   cheyvathinnu  aruthu aarkkume ,

Inganeyulla    samudram   kadannu ,

Chennu  yengine   Ravanan thanne  vadhikkunnu.

The group of monkeys   seeing  the home of fishes,

Were  greatly scared   in their mind,

The fearful place  inhabited by  crowd of crocodiles ,

The sea  is fierce   and full of  ear splitting sound,

With very tall waves and  was extremely deep  ,

And so nobody   can cross  this,

How can we cross   such a sea ,

And kill  Ravana    there ?

Chintha paravasarai   kapikalum,

Andha budhyaa Rama  parswe   maruvinaar,

Chandranum   appozh udhichu  pongeedinaan,

Chandramukhiye  niroopichu   Ramanum,

Dukham kalarnnu  vilapam   thudanginaan,

Okke  lokathe   aukaricheeduvaan.

 Very much worried   those monkeys ,

With   a blind   faith    stood   by Rama  ,

And at that  time moon rose up at the   sky,

And Rama   thinking   of the moon faced  lady,

Started  crying with great sorrow,

For the sake of imitating the people  of the world.

Dukha harsha   krodha lobhadhikal,

Soukhya  mada moha   kama janmaadhikal,

Ajnana   lingathinnullava  yengane  ,

Sambhavikkunnu  vicharichu  kankilo,

SAmbhavikunnithu  dehabhimaaninaam,

Kim paramathmani   soukhya dukhadhikal,

Sambrasadathiungal illa    randethume.

Sorrow, joy  , anger  , greed   and other such emotions,

Pleasure , lust , desire   , passion , birth  and other  states ,

Are   the   symbols   of an ignorant  brain,

And how can all these happen  to the divine God

Who  is personification  of wisdom,

All emotions  about body is  only   to those  who like the body,

And how can there   be  pain  and pleasure   to the divine god,

And both of these are not there for soul  in state of sleep.

SAmbrathi  nithyam aananda  mathram   param,

Dukhadhi   sarvavum  budhi sambhoothangal,

Maya vimohithanmaarkku  thonnum vrudhaa,

Dukhiyennum    sukhiyennum   mellamathum,

Okke   orthaal  budhanmaarude  matham.

Trust in  the divine   joy   forever  and always,

For emotions like   sorrow   are  created by brain,

The Chief Rama  , the divine soul  , the great gentleman,

Due   to getting himself with  characters of illusion,

To those   who are   tied up with illusion,

Would appear as  one who is in joy or sorrow,

And this   is only the   opinion of ignorant.

6.4 Ravanadhikalude  Alochana

The discussion   of Ravana  and others.

  Akkadha  nilkka , Dasaratha   puthrarum  ,

Arkathmajadhikalaya kapikalum,

Varannihikku   vadakke kare   vannu  ,

Varidhi pole    parannaranantharam,

Sankha viheenam   jayichu  jaga thrayam,

Lankayil   vazhunna  lankeswaran thadhaa,

Manthrikal thamme  varuthi viravodu  ,

Manthra nikethanam  pukkiruneedinaan.

When things   were like that  ,when  son of Dasaratha,

Along with  monkeys  lead by  the son of Sun God,

Had come to the northern shore  of the ocean,

And had spread out   like an ocean itself,

The king of Lanka   who lives in Lanka ,

Who without doubt   has won the three  worlds,

Summoned   all his ministers quickly,

And went inside the meeting hall  for discussions.

Aadhitheya asurendradhikalkkum ,

Aruthathoru   karmangal Maruthi cheythathum  ,

Chinthichu, chithichu nanichu   Ravanan,

Manthrikalodu  kelpicchan avasthakal,

“Maruthi   vannivade cheytha   karmangal,

AArum ariyathirikka illallo,

Aarkkum  kadakkaruthathoru  Lankayil,

OOkode   vannakam pukkoru   Vanaran,

Janaki thanneyum  kandu paranjoru  ,

Dheenatha   koodathe azhichan upavanam.

The fact that  Hanuman did acts ,

Which even devas    and Asuras  cannot do,

Made  Ravana, think, about it and become   ashamed.

And he   informed the situation to his ministers,

“I am sure   all of you know  ,

About the acts done by Hanuman after  coming here ,

In the  city of Lanka    where  no one can enter,

That monkey came inside   with great strength,

And also met Janaki and talked   to her  ,

And without any problem  destroyed  the garden.

“Nakthanjaranmaareyum   vadichu yennude  ,

Puthranaam Aksha  kumaraneyum konnu ,

Lankayum chuttu pottichu  SAmudarvum,

Langanam cheythoru   sangadamenniye  ,

Swasthanai  poyathu ortholam   namukkullil,

Yethrayum  nanamaam  illoru samsaym.”

He  after   killing several  Rakshasas and later,

Killing my son Aksha kumara,

And then burnt and powdered  Lanka,

And  without problem crossed   the sea ,

And  went back   happily and with health ,

And when we   remember   this  ,

Without any doubt our heart  is filled with shame .

“Ippol Kapi kula senayum  Ramanum,

Yennile   snehavum  ningalkku achanjalam.”

Now the army of monkeys      and Rama,

Have assembled at the northern shore of the ocean,

You all please   think it  over  and order me,

As  to what   is the action that   we have to take,

You are   my expert ministers  ,

And  hearing and acting   on the advice of ministers ,

Has not so far  lead  me   to any   danger ,

And so think f or my  benefit    and without delay .

You  are   all my eyes   and my love   for you is firm.”

“Uthamam, madhyamm  , pinneyum adhamavum,

Sammatham mamakam  nannu  nannu eedrusam.”

All acts are classified   in to three , good, medium and bad,

And also as possible ,  with difficulty  possible  ,

And impossible  , and though   each of you,

May have a different opinion  as to what this is ,

When you   discuss in depth about it,

We would be able to reach a   good consensus,

Which can be agreed   upon by all of us.”

“Yennu urappichu  kalpichathuthamam,

“Deciding   on this   and implementing  if it is good decion ,

And then the second   which is medium   will be told by me,

After   discussing in depth   methods ,

To   solve several deficiencies  noted ,

Agreeing that  particular approach which  is most proper ,

In the mind and implementing it  ,

Is the medium type   of administrative  decision,

With   obstinate   disposition   trying   to implement,

What is every individual’s opinion   and ,

Then  doing a bad   argument   that would damage   ,

The opinion   told by another  one ,

And after   waste  of lot of time   and  ,

Going away with hatred   to each other  ,

Is    the   very bad type of administrative   decision.”

Yennal ivade  namukkenthu  nallathu ,

Ingane Ravanan chonnathu     ketta alavil,

Chithe  bhavichathum   yethrayum adbutham.”

So now   all of you think together  and tell me,

That   which would   be good    for us.”

And hearing what   Ravana   has told,

The Rakshasas who talk   with an intention to please  him told,

“ Good , good, we will remember   well,

That  there was an administrative discussion for this.

What  happened to you today  , to lead ,

To a worry, you being one who has   won all the worlds,

It is surprising   that in your mind there is a fear  ,

 About   Rama    who is a mere  human being.”

You remember  about you son Megha Nadha  ,

Who defeated   Devendra  in war   tied him up,

And imprisoned in the city  and increased his fame ,

And you  once defeated  Kumbhera  the lord of riches,

In  war  without any effort  and  took away,

From him  the Pushpaka   Vimana ,

And this  is wonder of wonders howsoever  we think.

How can  there be fear  to you for the  staff of God of death,

When you have   defeated him in battle?

Have you not  defeated  in war ,

Varuna just by making a sound of “Hum”?

Is there a need to tell about other devas?

Who are all your enemies  , please tell us,

Did   the great Asura   called Maya  ,

Becoming scared of you gave  his gem like daughter  to you?

Moolam undo vishadhippan  manasi they ?

Even the asuras   are  giving you regular tribute,

And is there  a need to tell about human beings?

Did not   Lord Shiva present you with sword  Chandrahasa,

When you uprooted      the huge mountain called  Kailasa ,

 And played   it , throwing hither  and thither like a ball?

What  is the root reason    for  the worry in your mind?

Angavan  jeevanode pokayillallo  ?

All the residents   of the three  worlds ,

Knowing your strength  are living in fear,

 The acts   that  Hanuman did here  ,

Is shameful for valorous people  like us,

This happened   because of our indifference  ,

And    he went away from here   without any problem,

Had we known about   it  then,

Would he have   gone with his soul?

Itham  Dasamukhanodu   ariyichudan  ,

Prathyakam oro prathignayum   chollinaar,

Nakthanjara   varar itham  paranja alavil,

Ulthapam ottu  kuranju dasayanum.

After   telling like    this to Ravana ,

Each of them also   took an oath,

“With self respect   we   decide  in our mind,

Those human beings would not be there  in this world,

And also  the monkeys also   would cease to  exist,

Today to call  for a discussion  together ,

Is really   a great  insult to our strength,

Oh Lord kindly think about this,”

When the Rakshasa  lords told like this,

The  sorrow in his mind greatly reduced a lot to  the ten faced one.

6.5  Ravana Kumbakarna   Sambhashanam

The talk between Ravana   and Kumbhakarna,

Nidharayum kai  vittu  Kumbha karnan thadhaa ,

Vidrutham agrajan  thanne vananginaan,

NAkthacharadheeswaranodu  chollinaan.

Then, after  leaving out his sleep in the middle,

Kumbhakarna went to his elder brother and saluted him.

Ravana     caressed him  with a very tight   embrace ,

And made   him sit on a seat,

And told all the   news to his younger   brother ,

And after  making him hear  it  with love  ,

Kumbhakarna  with a great fear   in his mind,

Told the   King of Rakshasas as follows.

“Jeevichu bhoomiyil vazhkennathil mama  ,

Devathwam aasu kittunnathu nallathum,

Ippol bhavan  cheytha karmangal okkeyum,

THwal prana    haanikku thanne   darikka nee,

Jeevichirikkayil  aagraham undengil ,

Sevichu  kolluga  Ramane nithyamai  ,

Raman manushyan  alla aneka swaroopanaam,

Sriman Mahavishnu Narayanan paran.

More than  living in this world  , it is,

Better   to   get    the   godliness ,

And all the   things    that  you have done now  ,

Are  leading   to your death, please understand,

If    Rama   finds you out ,  at that  instant  ,

He   will not allow you to live in this earth,

If   you are   interested  in living ,

Go and serve   Rama   daily,

For Rama is not a man  and he is ,

Maha Vishnu, the Narayana ,

 Who does not have any two.

Agniye kandu mohichu salabhangal,

Magnamai  mruthyu  bhavikunnathu yivannam,

Janakiye  kandu mohikka karanam,

Prana vinasam   bhavanumakappedum.

Sita   is the real   Goddess Lakshmi  ,

And has been born     to  kill you.

Attracted  by the difference in sounds,

The  animals   move to their death,

The fishes   attracted  by  interesting food,

Go themselves  and  swallow the  fish hook  and die,

The moths get   attracted  to the fire,

And  invite death   silently  ,

And you because   you were attracted to Sita,

Would get  your   death.

SAsanayaalum adankuka yallithu ,

Vijnanamulla divyanmaarkku polum ,

Mathu  ajnanikalkko parayendathillalo .

Though understanding that , it is not good for me within the mind,

Your mind would   travel towards   that  only  ,

Because of  the  inclination created  in previous birth,

And nobody can prevent this ,

Even punishment    will not stifle that desire,

Even for the very intelligent divine  people ,

And need we  tell more about it for the  ignorant  people.

Indrya nigrahamulla purusannu  ,

Vannu koodum  nija soukhyangal okkave  .

Whatever you have done  is injustice ,

And it would bring danger  to people of the country also,

I  would go and suppress   Rama  and all other monkeys,

You go and enjoy Sita , without any sorrow  in the mind,

The body would embrace death soon , and ,

Even before that  you fulfill your desires,

To the man who is the slave  to senses ,

Definitely danger would come soon , remember this,

And to the man who controls   his senses ,

All good as well as pleasures   would come of its own.

“Manushanakiya    Ramaneyum  mathu,

Yennu  saradheeswaranodu   cholledinaan,

Hearing the words of Kumbhakarna   who is the enemy of Indra,

Indrajit   told    with great respect  ,

“I will go   and kill  that man  Rama  ,

As   well as   all the monkeys, I would,

Go and come back soon , if you give permission.”

Said he     to the king   of Rakshasas.

6.6  Ravana Vibheeshana   Sambhashanam

The talk between Rama and   Vibheeshana.

Anneram aagathanaya  Vibheeshanan,

Dhanyan nijagrajan thanne   vananginaan,

Thannarigathu  angiruthi Dasananan ,

Chonnan avanodu pathyam vibheeshanan.

Vibheeshana who came   at that time,

Saluted  his blessed his  elder brother,

Ravana made  him sit near himself,

And Vibheeshana  at that time told him.

“Rakshasadheeswara  , veera, dasanana  ,

Kelkkanam   yennude vakkukal innu nee  ,

Nallathu chollanam   yellavarum  thanikku,

Hey king of Rakshasas, Hey hero  , Hey ten faced one ,

Today you have    to hear  my words,

Good things should be told  to you by all the people

Who are ours and also  by   the wise people ,

What  is auspicious    for the clan,

Should be thought over by all people ,

Please remember  , oh king of Rakshasas,

That in war   there is no one to face Rama  in all  the three  worlds.

All cannot   win   against Rama.

Please  do not think in your mind,

Of directly  fighting and winning   with Sri Rama,

Please hear, Sri Rama is not a human being ,

There is also nobody to know who he is,

He is not Devendra nor is he fire,

He is not Vaivaswatha  Manu   nor is he Niryathi,

He is not Vanuna nor is he   the wind,

He is not Khubera   nor is he Lord Shiva,

He is not Brahma   nor is he  the lord of snakes  ,

He is neither  Sun nor Rudhra   nor Vasus.

He is the real Mahavishnu    who is the divine  Narayana,

He can grant salvation  and he is the cause of creation, upkeep   and destruction,

Earlier he killed   Hiranyaksha  ,

By taking the form of boar  to bring back the earth,

Later he took the form of Man Lion  ,

And killed   the very valorous   Hiranya Kasipu,

Later  that  lord of all worlds, became Vamana  ,

And took  all the three   worlds from Bali,

And then becoming Rama  he killed ,

Twenty one generations  of kings,

Because   they   were having Asura  spirit in them,

And  for killing Asuras   , time after   time ,

He who pervades the world  takes incarnation in this world.

He who has come today as   the son of Dasaratha  ,

Has come to kill you, understand this .

The God who is truthful , should not come  ,

For no purpose  , just because he wants it  , this is definite ,

Then why am I telling this , If you have  ,

Any doubt   I will    tell you about it,

He is the one who gives  protection to those serving him,

He is God, merciful one , one who is alone,

He likes his devotees, is divine   and Lord of everything,

He is the Janardhana   who gives   wealth and salvation,

He likes people depending on him, He is one with lotus eyes,

He is God, the husband of Lakshmi, Kesava,

With devotion    serve   his feet   daily without hesitation .

And salute at his lotus feet,

If you fold your hands and say   save me,

He will  pardon all your mistakes,

And give you his world ,

For there  are none   who is merciful as our lord.

When he entered the forest he was a small boy  ,

And he killed   Thadaga with just one arrow  .

For the protection of fire sacrifice of  Kousiga,

He gave   death to Subahu  and other Rakshasas,

Just by keeping  feet on the stone  which was Ahalya,

He completely destroyed all her sins , do you not know,

After  breaking the bow called   Trayambaka , when,

He was taking away the Sita with lovely   eyes, wonder of wonders,

On the way   he  defeated Bhargava whose weapon was axe ,

Later   he killed Viradha and killed  Khara and  others who went  to enquire  ,

And later  he killed   the very great Bali,

And   was not all this done   by Raghava .

The Maruthi Jumped  and crossed  the sea , came  here ,

And met  and talked  with the lotus eyed one  ,

And offered   the city of Lanka to the fire ,

And went back victoriously ,

And all these  without  leaving anything out ,

Is known to you  and in spite of that ,

There is your great pride , I think .

Unnecessary enmity with good people  is  bad  ,

Without hesitation give the pretty lady back,

Remember  that the ministers   who are without any brain,

Would tell  things to your liking and lead you to death,

Suppose   you don’t want to  go to the city of death,

Without  any  further delay  ,  give back , Sita,

If a weak person   in his mind   tries to,

Compete   with a famous  one ,

Later   he would lose   his   soul  , city and army ,

And later   also lose   his life   within half a second.

All the relatives   who tell words   that please   you now ,

Will not be with you   at the time of your suffering.

Your friends   and relations   will say  ,

That  this happened due to your bad conduct,

And for that    we are not in any way responsible  ,

And they would go and serve   the one who is famous,

And king, there is no use   to think this  at that  time.

When you are  hit by the arrow and about to die,

There   would be great pain in my heart, and so,

I am  advising you directly   now  , now ,

Without delay give back the daughter of earth,

 For when in the war   your entire army is destroyed,

Leading to complete   loss of all your   wealth,

And at that time , if you feel like returning that lady,

There   would be  no chance to do that.

You have to  think   about the result,

That will come to any weak one fighting against the strong,

You should know   that If you start   a   fight   with Sri Rama  ,

Remember   that  no one will protect      you,

Please remember    that  Lord Shiva and others,

Live   by serving that lotus eyed one  ,

Oh king of Rakshasas, be victorious, and be victorious,

Do not quarrel with  the real great god,

And return the Goddess Janaki   to Sri Rama,

And live   happily    forever ,

Without any doubt return that  lady,

And please   do not completely destroy our   clan.

Like this when Vibheeshana told again and again,

That  which is good for him ,

The ten faced one   who was the king of Rakshasas,

Became    very angry     and told  his brother  and told,

“It is not enemies who become your enemies ,

Those  enemies who move   with friendliness   near you,

Are   the real enemies    for everyone  ,

They will definitely bring death.

If you talk like this further   to me,

There is no doubt   that you will be killed.”

“Mruthyu vasa gathanaya   purushannu,

Sri Rama deva  padambojamenni  ,

Maththarum   saranam yenikkilla kevalam,

Chennu trikalkkal   venanthike   santhatham,

Ninnu   sevichu kolvan   janmam ulla  naal.”

As soon as the king of Rakshasas   told like this,

That Vibheeshana who was  a great devotee  thought,

“ To the man who   is in the arms of death,

No  divine  medicines   would work,

Whatever I have told him is enough  ,

Can  the  dictates of fate  be moved by valour?

I do not have   any other  protection,

Other   than the lotus like feet of   Rama,

I will go and fall at his feet  and always ,

Serve him  , till  this life exists for me,.”

Pokaykilo , mama Chandrahasathinnu,

Innu  yekantha bhojanmai  varum  neeyedo.”

Immediately along with  four ministers,

He  took  a decision like this and started,

I would forsake  wife, wealth , home   and servants,

And then fix the lotus like feet in my mind and become happy,

And then he saluted  the feet of  his brother,

And Ravana with great anger  at that time told,

“You are the one who brings danger to me,

You go and serve Rama and I do not have ,

Any  pain because of that  in my mind,

If  you do not go  you would become ,

Lonely food  to my sword Chandrahasa.”

Hearing that Vibheeshana told ,

“ You are  equal to my father,

If I  obey your orders,

That would only bring happiness  to me,

Because of me   you should not have any sorrow,

And so I am going speedily from here.”

You please live long   happily  along with,

Sons, friends, money  and   wives,

And to  completely  annihilate  you,

Rama  has been born in the house  of Dasaratha,

And the goddess of death  is born in Janaka’s house,

With   a name  Sita and  to reduce ,

The burden of earth  both of them have come over here.

Oh Lord  , when that  is the case , how would,

The  advice meant for your good told by me ,

Enter  in to your  mind, pleasew know for killing Ravana,

In the earth as  per the request of Lord Brahma,

Definitely   Lord Rama   was born,

How can this change in to another now,

Before the entire Rakshasa  clan is destroyed,

I am going to seek the protection  of son of Dasaratha.

Vibheeshana    has sent   by Ravana ,

For   doing service  to lotus like feet of God of Gods,

Without sorrow   and with four ministers  ,

Travelled  through the sky  very speedily,

And came at the spot where   Rama was there  ,

And with clear   words   and a high tone   told,

With devotion, humility   and with  clarity  and power.

Oh lord, victory, victory  , Oh Lord  Victory, victory,

Oh lotus eyed one , Oh Mukunda  , victory, victory  ,

Oh crest jewel of kings , Oh  husband of Sita  , victory,

I am the brother of Ravana , I bid  farewell   to them,

 For doing    service to you , Oh treasure of mercy,

Oh  God of Vedas  , Oh Lord of Raghu clan  , Oh  Lord of Lakshmi,

My name  is Vibheeshana , I am a devotee who is   your servant.

I told  Ravana    for his good   that,

“Your stealing of the  lady is wrong “,

And “Please  take and give her back to Rama,”

I told to the best of my capacity   , several times,

And I  tried to advice  him in a scientific way,

And because he is ignorant , he did not agree.

Whatever  I told him for his own good,

Appeared   to him as bad    due   to fate

He neared  me with a sword to kill me ,

With   a speed   of a black Cobra,  that  King of Lanka,

Due to fear    of death , I   came  flying  from there ,

Worried    and with great   speed,

Along   with four ministers  I bid farewell,

And Oh God  I do not have   any support ,

I came for salvation from birth  death  process ,

And  Oh ocean of mercy  , your lotus like  feet is my support.

As soon as   these words of  Vibheeshana   were heard,

Sugreeva got up   and said as follows,

“Oh lord   of the world,  This Rakshasa is a  magician,

Besides ,he  being  specially    the brother  ,

Of Ravana  he must be having valour  ,

And those  ministers    who came with him are  armed ,

And definitely  must be   experts   in magic,

If   our security appears   to be less ,

 They may even kill us in sleep.”

Think about it and  send the  monkeys,

 He is one who has to be killed  without any doubt,

Believing    one’s own enemies   as friends  is better  than,

Believing  people of the enemies side  as our  friends,

Please think about it deeply and come to a conclusion and tell us,

Other  monkeys  also thought and  expressed different opinions.

Anneram uthaya    vandhichu Maruthi,

At that time  Hanuman stood up , saluted and told,

“Vibheeshana   is a very good person,

My opinion is    that   we should protect ,

Those   who come seeking protection from us.

Is it a fact   that  all those  born as  Rakshasas ,

Are   all our enemies for all people ,

Should know that good people   are also there among them.

It is not for the name of the caste  but ,

It  is the difference in the  character ,

That should be considered , opine the wise.

The permanent   dharma  for all kings,

Is to protect  those who depend on them , say Sasthras.”

After hearing the several   talks of different persons  ,

Rama  understood all of them   and told,

“I think that what  was  told by Hanuman is proper,

Oh valorous one , Oh son of Sun God, come here ,

All of you please  hear  what is said by me,

Oh great   givers of law like  Jambhavan,

If one becomes a king   then  he should  ,

Always protect    those   who depend on him  ,

Though   that person is a dog or  a dalit.”

If he does not protect he is  one with sin of killing a Brahmin,

And the one who protects  is the blessed one who has  done Aswamedha,

Says   all the   Vedas  as well  as shastras,

So  you should not know about sin and blessing.

Once upon a time   a dove   with his lady dove ,

Wandered   inside a big forest ,

On a    big very tall tree ,

And there  that dove was killed   by arrow of a hunter.

THannude pakshiniye  surathanthare  ,

After crying   due to the great sorrow  ,

Of its  partner in love  being killed ,

When he was  sitting there  forgetting all,

A big rain and wind came and the sun,

Went and disappeared   in the divine ocean,

 That hunter came  very tired due to hunger ,

And stood below the tree  where  he was sitting,

Seeing that   hunter standing pitiably  ,

That   dove  with   great   mercy,

Brought fire from somewhere   and gave him.

Thannude kaiyil   irunna kapothiye,

He    baked   the   dove  that  was with him,

In the fire    and then   ate  it,

But since his hunger  was not satiated ,

That   hunter   was standing there  miserably ,

And that  dove gave him his body  ,

By falling in to the fire and became his food.

It is like this ,  that those who depend  on us,

Should be protected  and if is a  man, need we tell,

This one has come here  to see protection ,

And so  I would always give  protection to him.

Then you please   something special,

There is no one who can deceive me  ,

For me   it is not a problem   ,

To create  , protect   and destroy  ,

The protectors    of the world,

As well as   the entire world that  we see in a minute.

So whom should I be afraid of , unnecessarily,

Without hesitation ask him to come,

Do not have any worry about it  ,

Oh Sugreeva  , you go   and bring him,

I  would speedily give   protection  ,

To all those who seek it from me  ,

And also understand   that  after that,

There  would not  be any sorrow of domestic life for them.

We   get  attracted  by sons   and wife  ,

And always enjoy the feeling of possession,

We have to see  the soul  , the soul of all beings,

And the attraction to the senses  leads to sorrow,

If we think of all  in the end  ,  the non soul,

Would make  everything to appear  to be pleasant,

And that   is in  the mind of people without wisdom,

If we think that  Indra , fire  , Yama  , Varuna , vayu ,

The  greatest among Raghu clan became happy,

On seeing the devotee  who was praying with great devotion,

 And that lover of devotees, becoming divinely happy ,

With a   very happy smile told like   this,

“You choose  the  boon that   you like ,

For being happy  I want to give you a boon,

Please remember  that  once somebody  finds me out,

He will never have  problems afterwards.”

Vibheeshana hearing the nectar  like words of Rama,

With great   joy told   the following.

“Dhanyanaanen  krutha kruyhyanaaen,

“I have become  blessed  and contented,

Oh blessed one  ,I have become one whose  desires are  fulfilled,

By the sight of    your  lotus like   feet ,

I have  become detached, there  is no doubt about it,

In this world  there is  no blessed  person equal to me,

There is also   no one   as pure   as me  ,

Because  of my ability  to see  your form.

For getting detached   of the ties   of Karma  ,

Oh Raghava  give me the pure knowledge   about you,

I do not have   any  other desires  in my mind ,

I should get devotion to your lotus like   feet,

Daily    with  great stability , oh treasure  of mercy.”

After hearing this   the very highly pleased  Raghava,

Told the Lord of the   Rakshasas as   follows,

“In the minds of the jnanis   who exist ,

 Daily without attachment  to anything, with peace  ,

With  a pure  mind where  devotion has grown,

I would  happily stay  along with Sita.

So daily meditate on me  always  ,

And live   so that you would get salvation,

And not only that  he who reads  or hears  daily  with a pure mind,

The  prayer  drenched in devotion  composed by you,

He would definitely   attain salvation.”

That lover  of devotees, then told like this ,

To Lakshmana  with   great  propriety,

“The result of seeing me with  softness ,

I want to be seen   and  implemented today itself,

Without any doubt   and with love  ,

Crown him as    the   ruler of Lanka,

Go and bring the water from the ocean,

Along with the lords  of   tree branches ,

And let   him   live   as ruler  of Lanka ,

As long as  the  sun, earth and the   sky  ,

And my story  exist , Let the Lanka prosper  ,

Lakshmana  obeying the words   of the  lotus eyed  ,

Anointed   Vibheeshana   as   the king of Lanka  ,

With playing   of musical instruments  ,

Along with very powerful monkey kings  ,

And the entire three worlds said, “Good , good”,

And good people   were happy because   of this,

And the great devas   showered  flowers ,

Becoming bereft of   their sorrows.

Apsara  sthreekalum  nrutha   geethangalaal,

Appurushothamane  bhajichedinaar ,

Gandharwa  kinnara  kimpurushanmaarum,

Andharmudhaa  Sidha  vidhyaadaraadhiyum,

Sri Ramachandrane   vaazhti  sthuthichithu  ,

Bheri ninadham muzhakkinaar   anwarum,

Punyajaneswaranaya  Vibheeshanan,

 Thanne punarnnu  Sugreevanum  chollinaan.

The Apsara ladies    also prayed  to  the great Purusha,

 By dancing    and by songs,

Gandharwas, Kinnaras  and KImpurushas , Sidhas  ,

And Vidhyadharas   with ebbing happiness  in their mind,

Praised    Sri Rama   and prayed   him,

All the devas   played  drums and high musical sound   was produced,

Sugreeva hugged    the very holy Vibheeshana  and told.

Paarezhurandinum nadhanai   vazhum yi,

Sri Rama  kinkaranmaaril  mukhyan bhavan,

Ravana nigrahathinnu   sahayavum,

AAvolam   aasu cheyyanam   bhavan,

Ini kevalam   jnangalum   mun nadakkunnundu,

Sevayaa sidhikkum  metham anugraham.

You are  the chief   among Rama’s   servants,

Who rule over   the fourteen worlds,

Please   do as much as possible ,

To help us to  kill Ravana  immediately  ,

From now onwards   we would be ,

Simply  walking in front ,

So that  by service  we would get his blessings.

Sugreeva vakhyam aakarnya    Vibheeshanan,

 Agre chirichu avanodu   cholledinaan,

“Sakshaal   jagan mayanaam  akhileswaran,

Saakshi bhoothan    sakalathinnumaakayaal,

Yenthu sahayena   karyam avidekku,

Bandhu  sathrukkal   yennu ullathum  illa  kel,

Goodasthananda poornan  ekathamajan,

Koodasthanasrayam   matharum  illado.”

Hearing   the words   of Sugreeva , Vibheeshana,

 With a   smile    told   him,

“He is the god of all who pervades   everywhere ,

And since he  is the witness   to all happenings  ,

What   help can I do to him  and hear ,

He does not have any one as   relation or enemy  ,

And  our soul   which is full of joy and is  the universal one,

Has to depend only  on the God who does not change  with time.

Moodathwamathre  namukku thonnunnathu,

Gooda triguna bhavena   mayaa balal,

THadvasanmaar okke  naam yennu arinju  kondu,

Adwaya bhavena   sevichu kolga naam,

Nakthanchara  pravarokthikal  kettoru  ,

BHakthanaam bhanujanum thelinjeedinaan.

The thought   that we can help him ,   within us   is  foolish,

For due to the secret  three  fold  characters ,

And by the strength of illusion , understand that ,

We are   all under his control   and  we should serve  him,

With a feeling that   there is no  division of two,

And hearing  the opinion   of the Rakshasa,

Sugreeva  who is a devotee   became  more clear.
