Doha 67
मोहि मग चलत न होइहि हारी। छिनु छिनु चरन सरोज निहारी॥ सबहि भाँति पिय सेवा करिहौं। मारग जनित सकल श्रम हरिहौं॥१॥
पाय पखारि बैठि तरु छाहीं। करिहउँ बाउ मुदित मन माहीं॥ श्रम कन सहित स्याम तनु देखें। कहँ दुख समउ प्रानपति पेखें॥२॥
सम महि तृन तरुपल्लव डासी। पाय पलोटिहि सब निसि दासी॥ बार बार मृदु मूरति जोही। लागिहि तात बयारि न मोही॥३॥
को प्रभु सँग मोहि चितवनिहारा। सिंघबधुहि जिमि ससक सिआरा॥ मैं सुकुमारि नाथ बन जोगू। तुम्हहि उचित तप मो कहुँ भोगू॥४॥
Meaning
“As I walk along the road I shall know no fatigue gazing on your lotus feet all the while. I shall render all sorts of service to you, O my beloved lord, and shall relieve you of all the toil occasioned by the journey. (1) “Laving your feet and resting in the shade of a tree I shall fan you with a cheerful heart. Beholding your swarthy form bedewed with sweat and casting a look on the lord of my life, I can have no occasion for grief. (2) “Spreading grass and leaves of trees on an even patch of ground this handmaid of yours will knead your feet and legs overnight. Even as I gaze on your tender form again and again, hot winds will have no effect on me. (3) “Who can dare look at me, when I am by the side of my lord, any more than a hare or jackal would regard a lioness? How true it is that I am delicate of body while my lord is fit to bear the hardships of a forest life, that it behoves you to undergo austerity while it is worthwhile for me to loll here in luxuries! (4)
ऐसेउ बचन कठोर सुनि जौं न हृदउ बिलगान। तौ प्रभु बिषम बियोग दुख सहिहहिं पावँर प्रान॥६७॥
Meaning
“When my heart refuses to be rent even on hearing such sharp words, I am sure my wretched self shall live to bear the terrible pangs of separation from my lord!” (67)
