# Ayodhya Kand · Doha 114

**चौ०** 
> सीता लखन सहित रघुराई। गाँव निकट जब निकसहिं जाई॥  
> सुनि सब बाल बृद्ध नर नारी। चलहिं तुरत गृहकाजु बिसारी॥१॥

**चौ०** 
> राम लखन सिय रूप निहारी। पाइ नयनफलु होहिं सुखारी॥  
> सजल बिलोचन पुलक सरीरा। सब भए मगन देखि दोउ बीरा॥२॥

**चौ०** 
> बरनि न जाइ दसा तिन्ह केरी। लहि जनु रंकन्ह सुरमनि ढेरी॥  
> एकन्ह एक बोलि सिख देहीं। लोचन लाहु लेहु छन एहीं॥३॥

**चौ०** 
> रामहि देखि एक अनुरागे। चितवत चले जाहिं सँग लागे॥  
> एक नयन मग छबि उर आनी। होहिं सिथिल तन मन बर बानी॥४॥

Meaning: Whenever Sītā, Lakṣmaṇa and Śrī Raghunātha happened to pass by some village, all those who heard of His coming—young and old, men and women alike—came out at once, unmindful of their household chores. (1)

Beholding the loveliness of Śrī Rāma, Lakṣmaṇa and Sītā they obtained the reward of their eyes and felt gratified. Their eyes were wet with tears, a thrill ran through their bodies and they were all enraptured to behold the two brothers. (2)

The state of their mind could not be described in words; it seemed as if paupers had stumbled on a pile of heavenly gems. Calling their neighbours they exhort one another: “Obtain the reward of your eyes this very moment.” (3)

Some were enraptured to see Śrī Rāma and went with Him gazing on Him all the time. Others took His image into the heart through the doors of their eyes and were utterly overwhelmed in body, mind and speech. (4)

**दो०** 
> एक देखि बट छाँह भलि डासि मृदुल तृन पात।  
> कहहिं गवाँइअ छिनुकु श्रमु गवनब अबहिं कि प्रात॥११४॥

Meaning: Seeing the cool shade of a banyan tree some spread soft grass and leaves under it and said, “Pray, rest awhile and you may then depart either now or preferably next morning.”(114)
