2.45.24

tathā hi satyaṃ bruvati prajāhite narendraputre gurusauhṛdād guhaḥ
mumoca bāṣpaṃ vyasanābhipīḍito jvarāturo nāga iva vyathāturaḥ

While thus the hero mighty-souled,
In wild lament his sorrow told,
Faint with the load that on him lay,
The hours of darkness passed away.
As thus the prince, impelled by zeal
For his loved brother, prompt to feel
Strong yearnings for the people's weal,
His words of truth outspake,
King Guha grieved to see his woe.
Heart-stricken, gave his tears to flow,
Tormented by the common blow,
Sad, as a wounded snake.

Ralph T. H. Griffith 1870, The Rámáyan of Válmíki, translated into English verse
