Spurred as Seetha by pep talk
Spoke she then with fortitude.
Words thy no less drops of rain
Land on that so parched for long.
In the despaired heart of mine
Seed like words as sowed by thee
Seem they turned all sprouts of hope.
Ever I cherish the time I spent
With my beloved spouse Rama,
Keep in mind to remind my Lord
The tale of crow that lost its eye.
In that night-long lovemaking
Smudged as dot my vermillion
Remind my Ram that he fashioned
Dot on my cheek not forehead.
How a valorous man like Ram
Fails to wreck his vengeance on
Man who came to snare his wife?
Let him know that this diadem
Which I got at our wedding
Helps me think of him fondly.
Now that I have parted with
Let him know that have I none
Helps that to soothe my torment.
It's the hope of meeting him
With which I bear slights all these.
Live I thirty days in hope
Fails if my Lord me by then
Left I with but no option
Than to take my life on own.
Ram if fails to come in time
With no reason to live more,
Ogles at me as Ravan
Bear I won't his lustful look.
Sank as Seetha in sorrow
Spoke thus vanar to cheer her.
Swear I do now by thy man
Fond he is no less of thee.
Now that I traced thee at last
For the end of thy sorrows
Note the count down hath started.
As and when I let him know
Though art confined by Ravan
To land in Lanka with vanars
Wastes not Ram a second even.
Battle Royal that follows
Ensures Ram would slay Ravan.
To spur on Rama even more
Why not give me something more?
Show if thou him my diadem
To spur him on to fight for me
Need there none for something else.
Enthused by her words Hanuman
Stirred his frame to fly back home.
Grew as he in size Hanuman
In awe Seetha gazed at him.
At the prospect of his loss
Spoke to him in tears Seetha.
Tell my man 'n his sibling
Suffering am in anxiety.
How to rescue me in time
Counsel Rama O Hanuman.
Fare thee well O dear vanar
Know I wish thee bon voyage.
To journey back to Kishkindha
All set Hanuman to leave her.
