I shall arrest the movement of the planets and overshadow the Moon. Stopping the course of the wind and destroying the rays of the Sun and fire I shall envelope the earth with darkness, crush down the summits of the mountains, dry up the pools, blow up the creepers, demolish the Ocean and eradicate the trees. If the celestials do not give me back my Sītā I shall bring about the dissolution of the three worlds which would else have been wrought by time. O son of Sumitrā, instantly shall the celestials headed by Indra, meet with my prowess, if they do not give back my Sītā, ever advancing my welfare.
संनिरुद्धग्रहगणमावारितनिशाकरम्। विप्रणष्टानलमरुद्भास्करद्युतिसंवृतम्॥ विनिर्मथितशैलाग्रं शुष्यमाणजलाशयम्। ध्वस्तद्रुमलतागुल्मं विप्रणाशितसागरम्॥ त्रैलोक्यं तु करिष्यामि संयुक्तं कालकर्मणा। न ते कुशलिनी सीतां प्रदास्यन्ति ममेश्वराः॥ अस्मिन् मुहूर्ते सौमित्रे मम द्रक्ष्यन्ति विक्रमम्।
