Doha 244
आरत लोग राम सबु जाना। करुनाकर सुजान भगवाना॥ जो जेहि भायँ रहा अभिलाषी। तेहि तेहि कै तसि तसि रुख राखी॥१॥
सानुज मिलि पल महुँ सब काहू। कीन्ह दूरि दुखु दारुन दाहू॥ यह बड़ि बात राम कै नाहीं। जिमि घट कोटि एक रबि छाहीं॥२॥
मिलि केवटहि उमगि अनुरागा। पुरजन सकल सराहहिं भागा॥ देखीं राम दुखित महतारीं। जनु सुबेलि अवलीं हिम मारीं॥३॥
प्रथम राम भेंटी कैकेई। सरल सुभायँ भगति मति भेई॥ पग परि कीन्ह प्रबोधु बहोरी। काल करम बिधि सिर धरि खोरी॥४॥
Meaning
Śrī Rāma, the all-compassionate and all-wise Lord, found all the people restless (for meeting him); and, therefore, meeting the wish of everyone according to the sentiment each cherished in his heart, (1) He and His younger brother Lakṣmaṇa met them all in an instant and relieved their distress and terrible agony. This was nothing great for Śrī Rāma: the sun would as well cast its reflection in millions of jars full of water simultaneously. (2) All the citizens met the Niṣāda chief with a heart overflowing with love and praised his good fortune. Śrī Rāma found all His mothers as stricken with grief as a row of tender creepers that had been smitten by frost. (3) First of all He met Kaikeyī, and assuaged her mind by His guileless disposition and devotion. He fell at her feet and then soothed her attributing the blame to the wheel of time, destiny and Providence. (4)
भेटीं रघुबर मातु सब करि प्रबोधु परितोषु। अंब ईस आधीन जगु काहु न देइअ दोषु॥२४४॥
Meaning
Śrī Raghunātha thereafter met all His mothers and consoled them by exhorting them in the following words: “Mother, the world is controlled by the will of God; no one should, therefore, be blamed.” (244)
