Shilpi (sculptor) - Maharaj, with a calm mind, describe Maharani. By your description, I will be able to bring mata into gold.
Ram - Sita is a great woman, a great daughter, a great wife, a great daughter-in-law. And. And. (hesitating) When she was going out of the palace, she was going to be a mother. Do not know how she is, where she is.
Shipi - Maharaj, how does she look, how are her eyes, her face? Tell everything, Maharaj.
Ram sings -
parichay kar saundarya shreshthe se
parichay kar saundarya shreshthe se
dekh siya ko mere drishti se
vardani charno se gati le
murti banane ki anumati le
kati komal, kar-kamal suhane
kati komal, kar-kamal suhane
baanho ka haar banane banana jaane
baanho ka haar banane banana jaane
hai dediptyaman mukh mandal
gahre nain shyam bind kaajal
gahre nain shyam bind kaajal
mastak par suraj ki prabha hai
mastak par suraj ki prabha hai
kesho mein ghanghor ghata hai
kesho mein ghanghor ghata hai
har naate ki, har chhavi pyari
har naate ki, har chhavi pyari
man se devi, tan se naari
jab yah murti bana layega
tu bhi amarta pa hayega
tu bhi amarta pa hayega
yagna murti rakh hoga pura
siya bin Ram rahega adhura
siya bin Ram rahega adhura
Ram - Shilpi, this is my Sita. Sometimes I feel that I understood Sita very well and the next moment, I feel that I did not understand her at all.
Shilpi - Maharaj, I am blind since birth and I feel everything only be hearing. For the first time, I am feeling sad that I do not have eyes. I wish to see mata. I am feeling angry on God. If he had not made me blind, my life would be meaningful.
The preparations for ashwamedh yagna are on full swing.
Vashishth - Is everything going on right track?
A rishi - Yes gurudev, yagna vidhi is complete. Now we are working on decoration.
Vashishth - Excellent. Everything should be completed in time.
Bharat, Laxman and Shatrughan - Pranam gurudev
Vashishth - My blessings to you. Laxman, by tomorrow, all the preparations should be complete. The day after tomorrow morning is an auspicious time for the yagna. We will need a horse. You have to arrange that.
Sumant - Maharaj, the statue of maharani is complete. Let us see it.
Ram - I have full faith that the statue must be well-made.
Sumant - The sculptor requests that you see the statue once. He wants to know if he could give form to the image of maharani as it exists in your heart.
Ram - Let us go Sumant ji. I cannot deny the sculptor's request.
Ram and Sumant go to see the statue.
Shilpi - Maharaj, I devoted my whole life in this art but today the first time I felt that my art is being tested. If I have made any mistake in making mata's statue, then I beg forgiveness, maharaj.
The shipi slowly removes the cloth covering the statue. Ram is wonderstruck to see the statue. He imagines Sita in the statue.
Ram - It is amazing. It looks like Sita is standing and we have to only put life into it.
Shilpi - Even if I knew how to put life into a statue, still I could not have done it because devi Sita's life is in you, maharaj.
Ram - Your art is priceless. Tell me what you want. Wealth, elephants, horses, land - what do you want?
Shipli - Maharaj, you said that my art is priceless. Let it be priceless. By meeting you I got everything. I have only one request that please give me room in your feet.
Ram blesses him.
Ram - As you wish but I will always be indebted to you for this statue.
Sita is doing puja.
Nani ma - In Ayodhya, the statue of Sita is complete. I have heard that the statue looks as if it is Sita herself.
Sita - I heard that for that statue, maharaj Sri Ram described Sita as she exists in his heart.
She thinks - Swami, I have happy that I am not in your life but at least I am in your heart. Accept my obeisances on your feet.
Ram - Pranam gurudev. Is anything lacking for the yagna.
Vashishth - All preparations are complete. One job is left, which you will have to do. You have to bring water from saryu river. You have to wash your mothers' feet with that water and seek their permission for the yagna.
Ram - Gurudev, this will be a great fortune for me.
Ram goes to collect water in a kalash. His brothers and some soldiers are also with him. He enters into the river. He gives the kalash for some time to Bharat, recites mantras. Then fills water into the kalash.
Bharat, Lakhan, Shatrughn aur sainya sahit Raghuvir
Mukhdo par muskan le ja rahe saryu teer
Bharne nirmal neer
Pahle pranam kiya sarita ko
Ab Saryu mein paanv badhaye
Deke anuj ke haath mein ghat jal
Haath mein lekar mantra sunaye
Jod ke haath pranam karen
Jod ke haath pranam karen
Mano puchh rahen ghat jal layen
Shiv ko Ganga dene wale Saryu se jal maang ke payen
Shiv ko Ganga dene wale Saryu se jal maang ke payen
Shiv ne Ganga sheesh pe dhari
Hari Saryu sheesh pe dhar le jaayein
Ram washes rajmatas' charan.
Thaliyon mein pushp saje push mein charan dhare
Charno pe neer prabhu Saryu ka dhaarte
Mataon ki divya triveni hai virajman
Bari bari pag prabhu maon ke pakharte
Harshit garvit samvit mataon ke
Nain nahi thake chhavi Ram ki niharte
Ashwamedh yagna ho safal
Isi kamna se hriday mataon ke aashish nidhi nivarte
Ram - I, Dashrath nandan Ram, seek permission from my mothers to start the yagna.
Precap - The horse is released to roam freely.
Seher Hone Ko Hai
