Doha 104

चौ०

गंग बचन सुनि मंगल मूला। मुदित सीय सुरसरि अनुकूला॥ तब प्रभु गुहहि कहेउ घर जाहू। सुनत सूख मुखु भा उर दाहू॥१॥

चौ०

दीन बचन गुह कह कर जोरी। बिनय सुनहु रघुकुलमनि मोरी॥ नाथ साथ रहि पंथु देखाई। करि दिन चारि चरन सेवकाई॥२॥

चौ०

जेहिं बन जाइ रहब रघुराई। परनकुटी मैं करबि सुहाई॥ तब मोहि कहँ जसि देब रजाई। सोइ करिहउँ रघुबीर दोहाई॥३॥

चौ०

सहज सनेह राम लखि तासू। संग लीन्ह गुह हृदयँ हुलासू॥ पुनि गुहँ ग्याति बोलि सब लीन्हे। करि परितोषु बिदा तब कीन्हे॥४॥

Meaning

Sītā rejoiced to hear these benedictory words of goddess Gaṅgā and to find her favourably disposed. Then the Lord said to Guha, “Now go home.” The moment Guha heard this, his face turned pale and there was great agony in his heart. (1) With folded hands Guha addressed the Lord in pathetic tone: “Hear my prayer, O Raghukula-Śiromaṇi; let me remain with you, my lord, and show you the route; after serving you for a few days, (2) “I shall prepare a beautiful hut of leaves for you in whichever forest, O Śrī Raghunātha, you may go and take up your abode. Thereafter, I swear by you, O Raghuvīra, I shall do as you bid me.” (3) Perceiving his innate love, Śrī Rāma took him along and Guha felt much delighted in his heart. Then Guha summoned all his kinsmen and having gratified them, sent them home. (4)

दो०

तब गनपति सिव सुमिरि प्रभु नाइ सुरसरिहि माथ। सखा अनुज सिय सहित बन गवनु कीन्ह रघुनाथ॥१०४॥

Meaning

Then the Lord invoked Śrī Gaṇeśa and Lord Śiva; and bowing His head to the celestial stream Gaṅgā, Śrī Raghunātha proceeded to the woods with His friend Guha, His younger brother Lakṣmaṇa and Sītā. (104)
