# Ayodhya Kand · Doha 185

**चौ०** 
> भा सब कें मन मोदु न थोरा। जनु घन धुनि सुनि चातक मोरा॥  
> चलत प्रात लखि निरनउ नीके। भरतु प्रानप्रिय भे सबही के॥१॥

**चौ०** 
> मुनिहि बंदि भरतहि सिरु नाई। चले सकल घर बिदा कराई॥  
> धन्य भरत जीवनु जग माहीं। सीलु सनेहु सराहत जाहीं॥२॥

**चौ०** 
> कहहिं परसपर भा बड़ काजू। सकल चलै कर साजहिं साजू॥  
> जेहि राखहिं रहु घर रखवारी। सो जानइ जनु गरदनि मारी॥३॥

**चौ०** 
> कोउ कह रहन कहिअ नहिं काहू। को न चहइ जग जीवन लाहू॥४॥

Meaning: Everyone felt as great a joy as when the Cātaka birds and peacocks hear a thunder-clap. Knowing Bharata’s welcome resolve to start the very next morning, he became to all of them as lovable as their own life. (1)

After reverencing the sage and bowing their head to Bharata they all took leave and proceeded to their respective homes praising as they went his amiability and affection and exclaiming, “Blessed is Bharata’s life in this world!” (2)

They said to one another, “A great object has been accomplished!” Everyone began to make preparations for the journey. Whomsoever they left behind saying “You should stay back to guard the house,” felt as if he had been smitten on the neck. (3)

Someone said, “Nobody should be asked to remain behind; who in this world would not have the reward of his life? (4)

**दो०** 
> जरउ सो संपति सदन सुखु सुहृद मातु पितु भाइ।  
> सनमुख होत जो राम पद करै न सहस सहाइ॥१८५॥

Meaning: “Perish that property, house, happiness, friend, father, mother or brother, who does not gladly help one in surrendering at Śrī Rāma’s feet!” (185)
