o foremost of men, arise; perform with
water the funeral rites to our father;
Satrughna here and myself have already
offered our water-libations.
AYODHYAKANDA
प्रियेण खलु दत्तं हि पितृलोकेषु राघव ।
अक्षय्यं भवतीत्याहुः भवांश्चैव पितुः प्रियः ॥
O Raghava, (the wise) declare that that
which is given by the favourite son be-
comes indeed inexhaustible in the world
of the Manes. And you were the favou-
rite son of our father."
तां श्रुत्वा करुणां वाच पितुर्मरणसंहिताम् ।
राघवो भरतेनोक्तां बभूव गतचेतनः ॥
On hearing the moving words spoken
by Bharata regarding the death of his
father, Raghava became unconscious.
भ्रातरस्ते महेष्वासं सिषिचुस्सलिलेन वै ॥
And the brothers sprinkled water on
Rama the great bowman.
स तु संज्ञां पुनर्लब्ध्वा भार्यामभ्येत्य राघवः ।
सीते मृतस्ते श्वशुरः पित्रा हीनोऽसिं लक्ष्मण ।
भरतो दुःखमाचष्टे स्वर्गतं पृथिवीपतिम् ॥
