Here thou hast seen each lawn and dell,
And heard the tale I had to tell:
Permit thy servant, lord, I pray,
To cast this mortal shell away,
For I would dwell, this life resigned,
With those great saints of lofty mind,
Whom I within this holy shade
With reverential care obeyed.”
In plain words: Having shown Rama everything, Shabari asks his permission to leave her body. She wants to go and live with the great sages she served so faithfully in this forest.
