इहाँ पवनसुत हृदयँ बिचारा । राम-काज सुग्रीवँ बिसारा ॥
निकट जाइ चरनन्हि सिरु नावा । चारिहु बिधि तेहि कहि समुझावा ॥
ihām̐ pavanasuta hṛdayam̐ bicārā | rāma-kāja sugrīvam̐ bisārā ||
nikaṭa jāi carananhi siru nāvā | cārihu bidhi tehi kahi samujhāvā ||

What happens in this chapter
Hanuman rouses Sugriva; Lakshmana storms the city
Meanwhile Hanuman reflects that Sugriva has forgotten Rama's work. He goes to him, bows, and makes him understand by every means of counsel. Sugriva is gripped by fear: the senses have stolen my wisdom. He orders Hanuman to send messengers to call the monkey troops from everywhere, and declares that whoever does not come within a fortnight will die by his hand. Hanuman summons the envoys, honours each one, and with fear, affection and policy sends them on their way. Just then Lakshmana reaches the city, and the monkeys scatter at the sight of his anger. Stringing his bow he says he will burn the city to ash. Seeing the city in panic, Bali's son Angada comes before him.
सुनि सुग्रीवँ परम-भय माना । बिषयँ मोर हरि लीन्हेउ ज्ञाना ॥
अब मारुत-सुत दूत समूहा । पठवहु जहँ तहँ बानर-जूहा ॥
suni sugrīvam̐ parama-bhaya mānā | biṣayam̐ mora hari līnheu jñānā ||
aba māruta-suta dūta samūhā | paṭhavahu jaham̐ taham̐ bānara-jūhā ||
कहहु पाख महँ आव न जोई । मोरें कर ता कर बध होई ॥
तब हनुमन्त बोलाये दूता । सब कर करि सनमान बहूता ॥
kahahu pākha maham̐ āva na joī | moreṃ kara tā kara badha hoī ||
taba hanumanta bolāye dūtā | saba kara kari sanamāna bahūtā ||
भय अरु प्रीति नीति देखाई । चले सकल चरनन्हि सिर नाई ॥
एहि अवसर लछिमन पुर आये । क्रोध देखि जहँ तहँ कपि धाये ॥
bhaya aru prīti nīti dekhāī | cale sakala carananhi sira nāī ||
ehi avasara lachimana pura āye | krodha dekhi jaham̐ taham̐ kapi dhāye ||
धनुष चढ़ाइ कहा तब, जारि करउँ पुर छार ।
व्याकुल नगर देखि तब, आयउ बालिकुमार ॥
dhanuṣa car̤hāi kahā taba, jāri karaum̐ pura chāra |
vyākula nagara dekhi taba, āyau bālikumāra ||
