श्री राम-भरतादि का संवाद – Dialogue between Shri Ram, Bharat ji and others

"वे ही श्री रघुनंदन, लक्ष्मण और सीता जिसको शत्रु जान पड़े, उस कैकेयी के पुत्र मुझको छोड़कर दैव दुःसह दुःख और किसे सहावेगा?॥262॥"

"…Shri Raghunandan, Lakshman, and Sita ji, who were seen as gentle even by venomous female snakes and scorpions, were viewed as enemies by my Mother, Kaikeyi. Upon whom else should fate inflict such intense agony, if not upon Queen Kaikeyi’s own son, allowing him to live on, only to endure this suffering without end?”"
