Sanskrit Original
सुनत बिभीषन बचन राम के। हरषि गहे पद कृपाधाम के।। बानर भालु सकल हरषाने। गहि प्रभु पद गुन बिमल बखाने।। बहुरि बिभीषन भवन सिधायो। मनि गन बसन बिमान भरायो।। लै पुष्पक प्रभु आगें राखा। हँसि करि कृपासिंधु तब भाषा।। चढ़ि बिमान सुनु सखा बिभीषन। गगन जाइ बरषहु पट भूषन।। नभ पर जाइ बिभीषन तबही। बरषि दिए मनि अंबर सबही।। जोइ जोइ मन भावइ सोइ लेहीं। मनि मुख मेलि डारि कपि देहीं।। हँसे रामु श्री अनुज समेता। परम कौतुकी कृपा निकेता।।

Delighted to hear Sri Rama's words, Vibhisana clasped the feet of the All-merciful. The monkeys and bears too all rejoiced and, clasping the Lord's feet, began to recount His sacred virtues. Then Vibhisana withdrew to his palace and had his celebrated aerial car loaded with precious stones and articles of dress. He then brought the aerial car, Puspaka as it was called, and set it before the Lord; and the All-merciful thereupon smilingly said, "Listen, my friend, Vibhisana; step into the aerial car and rising into the air, scramble the clothes and ornaments." Vibhisana immediately rose into the air and dropped down all the jewels and raiment. The monkeys picked up whatever each took a fancy to; they put precious stones into their mouth (thinking them to be some edible substance) but would throw them away (the moment they realized their mistake). Sri Rama as well as Sri (Sita) and His younger brother (Laksmana) felt amused at the sight, exceedingly playful as the All-merciful is.
