Healing herbs from distant mountains Hanuman in safety brought	A
Rama rose and gallant Lakshman once again their foemen sought	A
	-
And when night its sable mantle o'er the earth and ocean drew	B
Forcing through the gates of Lanka to the frightened city flew	B
	-
Gallant sons of Kumbha kama vainly fought to stem the tide	C
Hanuman and brave Sugriva slew the brothers in their pride	C
	-
Makaraksha shark eyed warrior vainly struggled with the foe	D
Rama laid him pierced and lifeless by an arrow from his bow	E
	-
Indrajit arose in anger for his gallant kinsmen slayed	C
In his arts and deep devices Sita's beauteous image made	C
	-
And he placed the form of beauty on his speeding battle car	F
With his sword he smote the image in the gory field of war	G
	-
Rama heard the fatal message which his faithful Vanars gave	H
And a deathlike trance and tremor fell upon the warrior brave	H
	-
But Bibhishan deep in wisdom to the anguished Rama came	I
With his words of consolation spake of Rama's righteous dame	I
	-
'Trust me Rama trust thy comrade for I know our wily house	J
Indrajit slays not the woman whom his father seeks as spouse	J
	-
'Tis for Sita impious Ravan meets thee on the battle field	C
Stakes his life and throne and empire but thy Sita will not yield	C
	-
Deem not that the king of Rakshas will permit her blood be shed	C
Indrajit slays not the woman whom his father seeks to wed	C
	-
'Twas an image of thy Sita Indrajit hath cleft in twain	K
While our army wails and sorrows he performs his rites again	L
	-
To the holy Nikumbhila Indrajit in secret hies	J
For the rights which yield him prowess hide him in the cloudy skies	J
	-
Let young Lakshman seek the foeman ere his magic rites be done	M
Once the sacrifice completed none can combat Ravan's son	M
	-
Let young Lakshman speed through Lanka till his wily foe is found	C
Slay the secret sacrificer on the sacrificial ground '	-
	-
Unto holy Nikumbhila Lakshman with Bibhishan went	C
Bravest choicest of the army Rama with his brother sent	C
	-
Magic rites and sacrifices Indrajit had scarce begun	M
When surprised by arm d foemen rose in anger Ravan's son	M
	-
'Art thou he ' thus to Bibhishan Indrajit in anger spake	N
'Brother of my royal father stealing thus my life to take	N
	-
Raksha born of Raksha parents dost thou glory in this deed	C
Traitor to thy king and kinsmen false to us in direst need	C
	-
Scorn and pity fill my bosom thus to see thee leave thy kin	O
Serving as a slave of foemen stooping to a deed of sin	O
	-
For the slave who leaves his kindred basely seeks the foemans grace	J
Meets destruction from the foeman after he destroys his race '	-
	-
'Untaught child of impure passions ' thus Bibhishan answer made	C
'Of my righteous worth unconscious bitter accents hast thou said	C
	-
Know proud youth that Truth and Virtue in my heart precedence take	N
And we shun the impious kinsman as we shun the pois'nous snake	N
	-
Listen youth this earth no longer bears thy father's sin and strife	P
Plunder of the righteous neighbour passion for the neighbour's wife	P
	-
Earth and skies have doomed thy father for his sin polluted reign	K
Unto Gods his proud defiance and his wrongs to sons of men	L
	-
Listen more this fated Lanka groans beneath her load of crime	Q
And shall perish in her folly by the ruthless hand of Time	Q
	-
Thou shalt perish and thy father and this proud presumptuous state	C
Lakshman meets thee impious Raksha by the stern decree of Fate '	-
	-
'Hast thou too forgot the lesson ' Indrajit to Lakshman said	C
'Twice in field of war unconscious thee with Rama have I laid	C
	-
Dost thou stealing like a serpent brave my yet unconquered might	C
Perish boy in thy presumption in this last and fatal fight '	-
	-
Spake the hero 'Like a coward hid beneath a mantling cloud	C
Thou hast battled like a caitiff safe behind thy sheltering shroud	C
	-
Now I seek an open combat time is none to prate or speak	R
Boastful word is coward's weapon weapons and thy arrows seek	R
	-
Soon they mixed in dubious combat fury fired each foeman's heart	C
Either warrior felt his rival worthy of his bow and dart	C
	-
Lakshman with his hurtling arrows pierced the Raksha's golden mail	S
Shattered by the Raksha's weapons Lakshman's useless armour fen	L
	-
Red with gore and dim in eyesight still the chiefs in fury fought	C
Neither quailed bef ore his f oeman pause nor grace nor mercy sought	C
	-
Till with more than human valour Lakshman drew his bow amain	L
Slayed the Raksha's steeds and driver severed too his bow in twain	L
	-
'If the great and godlike Rama is in faith and duty true	B
Gods assist the cause of virtue ' Lakahman uttered as he drew	B
	-
Fatal was the dart unerring Gods assist the true and bold	C
On the field of Nikumbhila Lakshman's foeman headless rolled	C
