भृकुटि भङ्ग जो कालहि खाई । ताहि कि सोहइ ऐसि लराई ॥

What happens in this chapter
Sugriva escapes and maims Kumbhakarna
Bhagwan Shiva tells Uma that Rama was playing a human part, as Garuda might play among serpents. He whose frown devours Death needs no such fight; he lets it run so that his purifying fame may spread and people may sing it and cross the ocean of birth. Hanuman wakes and goes looking for Sugriva. Sugriva too comes round while Kumbhakarna thinks him dead, slips free and bites off the giant's nose and ears, then leaps roaring into the sky. Kumbhakarna catches his foot and dashes him down, but Sugriva springs up, strikes again and returns to Rama crying victory. Shamed and furious, the earless, noseless giant turns back, more dreadful than before, and the monkeys rain rocks and trees on him.
जग-पावनि कीरति बिस्तरिहहिं । गाइ गाइ भवनिधि नर तरिहहिँ ॥
मुरुछा गइ मारुत-सुत जागा । सुग्रीवहिँ तब खोजन लागा ॥
jaga-pāvani kīrati bistarihahiṃ | gāi gāi bhavanidhi nara tarihahim̐ ||
muruchā gai māruta-suta jāgā | sugrīvahim̐ taba khojana lāgā ||
सुग्रीवहु कै मुरुछा बीती । निबुक गयो तेहि मृतक प्रतीती ॥
काटेसि दसन नासिका काना । गरजि अकास चलउ तेहिं जाना ॥
sugrīvahu kai muruchā bītī | nibuka gayo tehi mṛtaka pratītī ||
kāṭesi dasana nāsikā kānā | garaji akāsa calau tehiṃ jānā ||
गहेउ चरन धरि धरनि पछारा । अति लाघवँ उठि पुनि तेहि मारा ॥
पुनि आयउ प्रभु पहिँ बलवाना । जयति जयति जय कृपानिधाना ॥
gaheu carana dhari dharani pachārā | ati lāghavam̐ uṭhi puni tehi mārā ||
puni āyau prabhu pahim̐ balavānā | jayati jayati jaya kṛpānidhānā ||
नाक कान काटे जियँ जानी । फिरा क्रोध करि भइ मन ग्लानी ॥
सहज-भीम पुनि बिनु श्रुति नासा । देखत कपि दल उपजी त्रासा ॥
nāka kāna kāṭe jiyam̐ jānī | phirā krodha kari bhai mana glānī ||
sahaja-bhīma puni binu śruti nāsā | dekhata kapi dala upajī trāsā ||
जय जय जय रघुबंस मनि, धाये कपि दै हूह ।
एकहि बार तासु पर, छाडेन्हि गिरि-तरु जूह ॥
jaya jaya jaya raghubaṃsa mani, dhāye kapi dai hūha |
ekahi bāra tāsu para, chāḍenhi giri-taru jūha ||
