In this Marathi song composed in Rāga Miśra Kāphī, Śūrpaṇakhā's proposal to Rāma would have been incomplete without her jealousy of his "ugly, skinny-limbed" wife Sītā, expressed in the penultimate verse.

Lyrics

कोण तूं कुठला राजकुमार?

देह वाहिला तुला श्यामला, कर माझा स्वीकार

Koṇa tūṃ kuṭhalā rāja-kumāra?

Deha vāhilā tulā śyāmalā, kara māzhā svīkāra

Who're you, a prince from where?

My body's dedicated to you, Dark One; accept me!

तुझ्या स्वरूपीं राजलक्षणें

रुद्राक्षांची श्रवणिं भूषणें

योगी म्हणुं तर तुझ्या भोंवती वावरतों परिवार

Tujhyā svarūpīṃ rāja-lakṣaṇeṃ

Rudrākṣāñcī śravaṇiṃ bhūṣaṇeṃ

Yogī mhaṇuṃ tara tujhyā bhoṃvatī vāvaratoṃ parivāra

On your person, royal features

At your ears, ornaments of Elaeocarpus seeds

I'd call you renunciate, yet around you loiters an entourage

काय कारणें वनिं या येसी?

असा विनोदें काय हांससी?

ज्ञात नाहिं का? येथ आमुचा अनिर्बन्ध अधिकार

Kāya kāraṇeṃ vaniṃ yā yesī?

Asā vinodeṃ kāya hāṃsasī?

Jñāta nāhiṃ kā? Yetha āmuçā anirbandha adhikāra

For what reason do you come to this wood?

Amused, why do you laugh thus?

Don't you know? Here, our authority is unrestricted!

शूर्पणखा मी रावणभगिनी

याच वनाची समज स्वामिनी

अगणित रूपें घेउन करितें वनोवनीं संचार

Śūrpaṇakhā mī Rāvaṇa-bhaginī

Yāça vanācī samaza svāminī

Agaṇita rūpeṃ gheuna kariteṃ vano-vanīṃ saṃcāra

I'm Śūrpaṇakhā, Rāvaṇa's sister

Consider me this same wood's mistress

Assuming countless shapes, I move through wood after wood

तुजसाठी मी झालें तरुणी

षोडशवर्षा मधुरभाषिणी

तुला पाहतां मनात मन्मथ जागुन दे हुंकार

Tuzasāṭhī mī zhāleṃ taruṇī

Ṣoḍaśa-varṣā madhura-bhāṣiṇī

Tulā pāhatāṃ manāta Manmatha zāguna de huṃkāra

For you, I became youthful

Sixteen years old, sweet-speaking

Seeing you, in my mind Love awakens and snorts!

तव अधराची लालस कान्ती

पिऊं वाटतें मज एकान्ती

स्मरतां स्मर का अवतरसी तूं अनङ्ग तो साकार?

Tava adharācī lālasa kāntī

Piūṃ vāṭateṃ maza ekāntī

Smaratāṃ Smara kā avatarasī tūṃ Anaṅga to sākāra?

Your lower lip's inviting glimmer

I wish to drink in solitude

When remembered, Love, do you descend, that Limbless taking shape?

मला न ठावा राजा दशरथ

मनांत भरला त्याचा परि सुत

प्राणनाथ हो माझा रामा, करु सौख्यें संसार

Malā na ṭhāvā rājā Daśaratha

Manāṃta bharalā tyāçā pari suta

Prāṇa-nātha ho māzhā Rāmā, karu saukhyeṃ saṃsāra

I don't know King Daśaratha

But his son has occupied my mind

Be my breath's lord, Rāma; let's do married life in bliss!

तुला न शोभे ही अर्धाङ्गी

दूर लोट ती कुरुप कृशाङ्गी

समीप आहे तुझ्या तिचा मी क्षणिं करितें संहार

Tulā na śobhe hī ardh'āṅgī

Dūra loṭa tī kurupa kṛś'āṅgī

Samīpa āhe tujhyā tiçā mī kṣaṇiṃ kariteṃ saṃhāra

This other half doesn't suit you

Toss afar that ugly, skinny-limbed one!

The one who's near you, instantly I'll finish her off!

माझ्यासंगे राहुनि अविरत

पाळ तुझें तूं एकपत्निव्रत

अलिङ्गनाची आस उफाळे तनूमनीं अनिवार

Mājhyāsaṃge rāhuni avirata

Pāḷa tuzheṃ tūṃ eka-patni-vrata

Aliṅganācī āsa uphāḷe tanū-manīṃ anivāra

In my company, dwelling, without pause

Observe you your one-wife rule

Hope to embrace flares up in my body and mind, irresistible!

This is a very famous song sung by legendary classical vocalist, Pt. Bhimsen Joshi. Ravan is singing about Lanka.

Please note the way he plays Veena and how well groomed he is smiley36
