Sita

No, death is far better than this. I could not endure for even an hour the unbearable grief that has no cure, let alone a sorrow that I could not avoid for ten long years, and three, and one.

The Kolas, Kiratas, birds and beasts – all are dear to me when I am with my loving lord.

No pleasure, not even in a dream, can I experience without my lord.

Then come with me, O Rama; this is all my hope and all my bliss.

Listen, my loving lord, can a shadow be separated from its source? Just as sunlight cannot exist without the sun, and the moon's radiance cannot be apart from the moon.
