# Ayodhya Kand · Doha 137

**चौ०** 
> रामहि केवल प्रेमु पिआरा। जानि लेउ जो जाननिहारा॥  
> राम सकल बनचर तब तोषे। कहि मृदु बचन प्रेम परिपोषे॥१॥

**चौ०** 
> बिदा किए सिर नाइ सिधाए। प्रभु गुन कहत सुनत घर आए॥  
> एहि बिधि सिय समेत दोउ भाई। बसहिं बिपिन सुर मुनि सुखदाई॥२॥

**चौ०** 
> जब तें आइ रहे रघुनायकु। तब तें भयउ बनु मंगलदायकु॥  
> फूलहिं फलहिं बिटप बिधि नाना। मंजु बलित बर बेलि बिताना॥३॥

**चौ०** 
> सुरतरु सरिस सुभायँ सुहाए। मनहुँ बिबुध बन परिहरि आए॥  
> गुंज मंजुतर मधुकर श्रेनी। त्रिबिध बयारि बहइ सुख देनी॥४॥

Meaning: Śrī Rāma loves true affection only; let those who are desirous to know take note of it. Śrī Rāma then gratified all the foresters by addressing to them gentle words sweetened by love.(1)

Bidden farewell by Him, they bowed their head to Him and departed; and discussing the virtues of the Lord they returned to their respective homes. This is how Sītā and the two brothers lived in the forest, delighting the gods and hermits. (2)

Ever since Śrī Raghunātha came and took up His abode there, the forest became a fountain of blessings. Trees of various kinds blossomed and bore fruit and lovely creepers that coiled about them formed an excellent canopy. (3)

They were all naturally beautiful like the trees of heaven; it seemed as if the latter had abandoned the celestial groves and migrated to that spot. Strings of bees made an exceedingly sweet humming sound and a delightful breeze breathed soft, cool and fragrant. (4)

**दो०** 
> नीलकंठ कलकंठ सुक चातक चक्क चकोर।  
> भाँति भाँति बोलहिं बिहग श्रवन सुखद चित चोर॥१३७॥

Meaning: The blue jay, cuckoos, parrots, Cātakas, Cakravākas, Cakoras and other birds delighted the ear and ravished the soul with their varied notes. (137)
