3.2.22

śareṇa nihatasyādya mayā kruddhena rakṣasaḥ
virādhasya gatāsor hi mahī pāsyati śoṇitam

'Canst thou, my brother, Indra's peer,
When I thy minister am near.
Thus grieve like some forsaken thing,
Thou, every creature's lord and king?
My vengeful shaft the fiend shall slay,
And earth shall drink his blood to-day.
The fury which my soul at first
Upon usurping Bharat nursed,
On this Virádha will I wreak
As Indra splits the mountain peak.
Winged by this arm's impetuous might
My shaft with deadly force
The monster in the chest shall smite,
And fell his shattered corse.'

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