Doha 156
जिअन मरन फलु दसरथ पावा। अंड अनेक अमल जसु छावा॥ जिअत राम बिधु बदनु निहारा। राम बिरह करि मरनु सँवारा॥१॥
सोक बिकल सब रोवहिं रानी। रूपु सीलु बलु तेजु बखानी॥ करहिं बिलाप अनेक प्रकारा। परहिं भूमितल बारहिं बारा॥२॥
बिलपहिं बिकल दास अरु दासी। घर घर रुदनु करहिं पुरबासी॥ अँथयउ आजु भानुकुल भानू। धरम अवधि गुन रूप निधानू॥३॥
गारीं सकल कैकइहि देहीं। नयन बिहीन कीन्ह जग जेहीं॥ एहि बिधि बिलपत रैनि बिहानी। आए सकल महामुनि ग्यानी॥४॥
Meaning
It was King Daśaratha who reaped the reward both of his life and death. His untarnished fame spread through a number of universes; as long as he lived he gazed on Śrī Rāma’s moonlike countenance and brought glory to his death by making the separation from Śrī Rāma his excuse for it. (1) Stricken with grief all the queens wept and praised the king’s comeliness of form, amiable manners, bodily might and majesty. They lamented in a variety of ways throwing themselves upon the ground again and again. (2) Male servants and maid-servants alike wailed in anguish and there was weeping in every house throughout the city. “Today has set the sun of the solar race, the perfection of righteousness, the repository of elegance and virtues.” (3) Everyone cursed Kaikeyī, who had robbed the world of its very eyes. In this way they wailed till the close of night, when all the great and enlightened hermits arrived. (4)
तब बसिष्ठ मुनि समय सम कहि अनेक इतिहास। सोक नेवारेउ सबहि कर निज बिग्यान प्रकास॥१५६॥
Meaning
Then sage Vasiṣṭha narrated a number of legends befitting the occasion and dissipated the gloom that hung over them all by the light of his wisdom. (156)
