Ayodhyā-kāṇḍa
Chapter 4: Daśaratha’s Anxiety About Coronating Rāma
Text 2.4.15

न किञ्चिन्मम कर्तव्यं तवान्यत्राभिषेचनात्।
अतो यत्त्वामहं ब्रूयां तन्मे त्वं कर्तुमर्हसि॥

na kiñcin mama kartavyaṁ tavānyatrābhiṣecanāt
ato yat tvām ahaṁ brūyāṁ tan me tvaṁ kartum arhasi

na kiñcit = nothing; mama = I have; kartavyam = further to do; tava = You; anyatra = other; abhiṣecanāt = than coronating; ataḥ = therefore; yat = what; tvām = You; aham = I; brūyām = tell; tat1 me = for my sake; tvam = You; kartum = do; arhasi = should.


1. Technical note: yat tat.

 

I have nothing further to do other than coronating You. Therefore, You should do what I tell You for my sake.
