# Ayodhya Kand · Doha 250

**चौ०** 
> कोल किरात भिल्ल बनबासी। मधु सुचि सुंदर स्वादु सुधा सी॥  
> भरि भरि परन पुटीं रचि रूरी। कंद मूल फल अंकुर जूरी॥१॥

**चौ०** 
> सबहि देहिं करि बिनय प्रनामा। कहि कहि स्वाद भेद गुन नामा॥  
> देहिं लोग बहु मोल न लेहीं। फेरत राम दोहाई देहीं॥२॥

**चौ०** 
> कहहिं सनेह मगन मृदु बानी। मानत साधु पेम पहिचानी॥  
> तुम्ह सुकृती हम नीच निषादा। पावा दरसनु राम प्रसादा॥३॥

**चौ०** 
> हमहि अगम अति दरसु तुम्हारा। जस मरु धरनि देवधुनि धारा॥  
> राम कृपाल निषाद नेवाजा। परिजन प्रजउ चहिअ जस राजा॥४॥

Meaning: The Kolas, Kirātas, Bhīlas and other dwellers of the forest prepared lovely bowls of leaves and filling them with honey, pure, fine and delicious as nectar, presented them with small bundles of bulbs, roots, fruits and sprouts, (1)

to all the newcomers with humble submission and salutations, severally mentioning the taste, species, virtue and name of each. The people offered a liberal price, but the foresters would not accept it and returned it adjuring them by Śrī Rāma’s love to take it back. (2)

Overwhelmed with emotion they submitted in gentle tones: “Hon’ble people value true love once they have come to recognize it. You are all virtuous souls, while we are vile Niṣādas; it is through Śrī Rāma’s grace that we have been blessed with your sight. (3)

“You were utterly inaccessible to us even as the stream of the heavenly river Gaṅgā is to the desert land of Maru (Western Rājasthāna and Sindh). The all-merciful Śrī Rāma has showered his grace on the Niṣāda chief; a king’s kith and kin and subjects too should display the same disposition. (4)

**दो०** 
> यह जियँ जानि सँकोचु तजि करिअ छोहु लखि नेहु।  
> हमहि कृतारथ करन लगि फल तृन अंकुर लेहु॥२५०॥

Meaning: “Bearing this in mind shake off all scruple and recognizing our affection be gracious to us. And in order to oblige us, do accept fruits, grass and shoots from us. (250)
