SUNDARAKANDA
 
Taking the ornament of her husband's

hand and looking at it, Janaki became

delighted as if she had actually got her

husband.
 

 
ततः सा हीह्रीमती बाला भर्तृसन्देशहर्षिता ।

परितुष्टा प्रियं कृत्वा प्रशशंस महाकपिम् ॥

Then that modest young lady, delight-

ed at the message from her husband,

welcomed the great monkey Hanuman

with affection and praised him:
 

 
विक्रान्तस्त्वं समर्थस्त्वं प्राज्ञस्त्वं वानरोत्तम ।

येनेदं राक्षसपदं त्वयैकेन प्रघर्षितम् ॥
 

"O best of monkeys, you are valorous,

clever and wise in that single-handed

you have attacked this abode of the

Rakshasas.
 

 
दिष्ट्या स कुशली रामो धर्मात्मा सत्यसङ्गरः ।

लक्ष्मणश्च महातेजाः सुमित्रानन्दवर्धनः ॥
 

By my good luck, is the righteous-

minded and truthful Rama in good health

and Lakshmana of great effulgence and

the promoter of the joy of Sumitra ?
 

 
कुशली यदि काकुत्स्थः किं नु सागरमेखलाम् ।

महीं दहति कोपेन युगान्ताग्निरिवोत्थितः ॥
