दर्शनार्थम् तु वैदेह्याः सर्वतः कपि कुंजराः | व्यादिष्टाः कपि राजेन यथा उक्तम् जग्मुर् अंजसा || ४-४७-१

As commanded by the king of monkeys Sugreeva all of the elephantine monkeys essayed everywhere with post-hast for a glimpse of Vaidehi. [4-47-1]

सीता को देखने के लिए सभी वानर और हाथी राजा सुग्रीव के आदेशानुसार तुरंत चल दिए।

ते सरांसि सरित् कक्षान् आकाशम् नगराणि च | नदी दुर्गान् तथा शैलान् विचिन्वन्ति समन्ततः || ४-४७-२

Those monkeys have thoroughly searched at lakes, in the pens of creepers on riverbanks, in vacant lands and in crowded cities and at impassable places with rivers and mountains. [4-47-2]

वे तालाबों, नदियों, जंगलों, आकाश, नगरों, नदियों के किनारों, किलों और पर्वतों को चारों ओर खोजते हैं।

सुग्रीवेण समाख्याताः सर्वे वानर यूथपाः | तत्र देशान् प्रविचिन्वन्ति स शैल वन काननान् || ४-४७-३

All the monkey commanders explicitly commanded by Sugreeva, very carefully searched all the provinces inclusive of mountains, woodlands, and thick forests of those provinces. [4-47-3]

सुग्रीव द्वारा बताए जाने पर सभी वानर सेनापति वहाँ के पर्वतों, वनों और जंगलों में खोज करने लगे।

विचिन्त्य दिवसम् सर्वे सीता अधिगमने धृताः | समायान्ति स्म मेदिन्याम् निशा कालेषु वानराः || ४-४७-४

All the Vanara-s firmed up in finding Seetha have searched nooks and corners of earth by day, and at nighttimes they used to come together onto earth at scheduled places. [4-47-4]

सभी वानर दिन भर सीता की खोज में लगे रहे और रात के समय पृथ्वी पर लौट आए।

सर्व ऋतुकान् च देशेषु वानराः स फलान् द्रुमान् | आसाद्य रजनीम् शय्याम् चक्रुः सर्वेषु अहस्सु ते || ४-४७-५

In all those days those Vanara-s used to come to trees which have fruits of all seasons, to make those trees as their beds at bedtime. [4-47-5]

सभी ऋतुओं में, सभी देशों में, वानर फलदार वृक्षों पर चढ़कर रात में सो जाते थे और दिन में भी वहीं विश्राम करते थे।

तत् अहः प्रथमम् कृत्वा मासे प्रस्रवणम् गताः | कपि राजेन संगम्य निराशाः कपि कुंजराः || ४-४७-६

Counting the day of their starting as day one, those elephantine monkeys returned to Mt. Prasavana within one month, hopeless of Seetha, and met Sugreeva, the king of monkeys, who is with Rama awaiting the return of monkeys. [4-47-6]

उस दिन पहले यह काम करके वे महीने भर के लिए झरने पर चले गए। वानरराज से मिलकर वे निराश वानर और हाथी लौट आए।

विचित्य तु दिशम् पूर्वाम् यथा उक्ताम् सचिवैः सह | अदृष्ट्वा विनतः सीताम् आजगाम महाबलः || ४-४७-७

Cmdr. Vinata, the great-mighty vanara, came back after searching eastern quarter as Sugreeva had advised, but without finding Seetha there. [4-47-7]

पूर्व दिशा में, जैसा मंत्रियों ने बताया था, सीता को न देखकर, महाबली राम लौट आए।

दिशम् अपि उत्तराम् सर्वाम् विविच्य स महाकपिः | आगतः सह सैन्येन वीरः शतबलिः तदा || ४-४७-८

Even the valiant and matchless monkey Shatabali explored whole of the northern direction along with his army, but he too came back as Seetha is undiscovered there. [4-47-8]

वह वीर महाकपि, शतबलि, अपने सैनिकों के साथ, सारी उत्तरी दिशा को छानकर तब आया।

सुषेणः पश्चिमाम् आशाम् विविच्य सह वानरैः | समेत्य मासे पूर्णे तु सुग्रीवम् उपचक्रमे || ४-४७-९

Sushena, the father-in-law of Sugreeva, searching whole of western quarter along with vanara-s, but not finding Seetha there, he came back when one month is completed, and approached Sugreeva. [4-47-9]

वानरों के साथ मिलकर सुषेण ने पश्चिम दिशा की खोज की और पूर्णिमा के महीने में सुग्रीव से मिलकर उनकी सहायता की।

तम् प्रस्रवण पृष्ठस्थम् समासाद्य अभिवाद्य च | आसीनम् सह रामेण सुग्रीवम् इदम् अब्रुवन् || ४-४७-१०

All of the expeditionists have reached and venerated Sugreeva who is sitting along with Rama on the peak of Mt. Prasavana and spoke this to him. [4-47-10]

सुग्रीव को, जो एक ऊँचे स्थान पर बैठे थे, राम के साथ देखकर, उन्होंने अभिवादन करके उनसे यह कहा।

विचिताः पर्वताः सर्वे वनानि गहनानि च | निम्नगाः सागर अन्ताः च सर्वे जनपदाः तथा || ४-४७-११

"All of the mountains, all of the serried forests, all of the riversides up to the edge of oceans, likewise, all of the inhabitations have been searched. [4-47-11]

सभी पर्वत, घने वन, गहरी नदियाँ और सभी देश भी उसी प्रकार हैं।

गुहाः च विचिताः सर्वा याः च ते परिकीर्तिताः | विचिताः च महागुल्मा लता वितत संतताः || ४-४७-१२

"Those caves that were explicitly extolled by you, they are all thoroughly searched, and immense shrubby hutches that are thickly entwined with climber plants have also been rummaged. [4-47-12]

गुफाएँ और झाड़ियाँ, जो सभी विस्तृत और फैली हुई हैं, वे भी सुंदर हैं। लताएँ भी फैली हुई और घनी हैं।

गहनेषु च देशेषु दुर्गेषु विषमेषु च | सत्त्वानि अतिप्रमाणानि विचितानि हतानि च | ये चैव गहना देशा विचिताः ते पुनः पुनः || ४-४७-१३

"Search is conducted in the compacted, lopsided, and impenetrable provinces, and colossal beings are hunted out and killed presuming that Ravana might have assumed those odd shapes, and the impassable provinces are searched high and low, time and again. [4-47-13]

गहरे जंगलों, देशों, दुर्गों और कठिन स्थानों में, अनेक प्रकार के जीव पाए जाते हैं, कुछ जीवित और कुछ मारे हुए। ये घने और दुर्गम स्थान बार-बार खोजे जाते हैं।

उदार सत्त्व अभिजनो हनूमान् स मैथिलीम् ज्ञास्यसि वानरेन्द्र | दिशम् तु याम् एव गता तु सीता ताम् आस्थितो वायु सुतो हनूमान् || ४-४७-१४

"Hanuma is high-born and exceptionally mighty, oh, Sugreeva, the king of vanara-s, he will ascertain about Maithili, because the son of Air-god, Hanuma, resorted to the direction in which Seetha is taken away." Thus, monkey chiefs reported to their king Sugreeva. [4-47-14]

हनुमान्, जो उदार और श्रेष्ठ कुल के हैं, हे वानरराज! आप मैथिली (सीता) को जानते हैं। जिस दिशा में सीता गई हैं, उसी दिशा में वायुपुत्र हनुमान् भी गए हैं।
