Araṇya-kāṇḍa
Chapter 55: Rāvaṇa Flatters Sītā
Text 3.55.21
राज्यभ्रष्टेन दीनेन तापसेन गतायुषा।
किं करिष्यसि रामेण मानुषेणाल्पतेजसा॥
rājya-bhraṣṭena dīnena tāpasena gatāyuṣā
kiṁ kariṣyasi rāmeṇa mānuṣeṇālpa-tejasā
rājya-bhraṣṭena = He has lost His kingdom; dīnena = and is in a state of distress; tāpasena = He is an ascetic; gata-āyuṣā = with a meager lifespan; kim = what; kariṣyasi = will you do; rāmeṇa = with Rāma; mānuṣeṇa = He is a human; alpa-tejasā = with very little energy.
What will you do with Rāma? He has lost His kingdom and is in a state of distress. He is an ascetic with a meager lifespan. He is a human with very little energy.
