SAUMYA SUMITRI

WHY tears Mother why? I didn't expect from a woman of your piety 
One who's praised for virtues of forbearance and inimitable sobriety
Weep like woman at parting of noble son following 6Dharmavatar ?
The banishment of whom was preordained for the sake of 7dushtasamhar.

No darling boy no! they aren't tears sprouting in heart streaming thro' eyes They're the pearl drops trickling down by mother's overjoyed placid eyes Reflecting the inexplicable inner joy, the elemental frame's experiencing
Seeing her noble son following 8Dharma by his magnanimous self-effacing.

"How fortunate am I to be the son of a 9Mahasadhvi of impeccable nobility 
Elating at her son's exchanging royalty for exile for the sake of probity
In contrast to that 10Kaikeyi, for becoming 11Rajamatas wielding power 
Exiling Dharma on the strength of forgotten boons got form senile power.
