Doha 74
धीरजु धरेउ कुअवसर जानी। सहज सुहृद बोली मृदु बानी॥ तात तुम्हारि मातु बैदेही। पिता रामु सब भाँति सनेही॥१॥
अवध तहाँ जहँ राम निवासू। तहँइँ दिवसु जहँ भानु प्रकासू॥ जौं पै सीय रामु बन जाहीं। अवध तुम्हार काजु कछु नाहीं॥२॥
गुर पितु मातु बंधु सुर साईं। सेइअहिं सकल प्रान की नाईं॥ रामु प्रानप्रिय जीवन जी के। स्वारथ रहित सखा सबही के॥३॥
पूजनीय प्रिय परम जहाँ तें। सब मानिअहिं राम के नातें॥ अस जियँ जानि संग बन जाहू। लेहु तात जग जीवन लाहू॥४॥
Meaning
Perceiving that the time was unpropitious to them, she collected herself and, possessing as she did a naturally good heart, spoke in gentle words, “My dear son, Jānakī is your mother while Rāma, who loves you in every way, is your father. (1) “Ayodhyā is there where Rāma dwells; there alone is the day where there is sunshine. If Sītā and Rāma are really proceeding to the woods, you have no business to be in Ayodhyā. (2) “One’s preceptor, parents, brother, gods and master—all these should be tended as one’s own life. Rāma, however is dearer than life, the soul of our soul and the selfless friend of all. (3) “Whosoever are worthy of adoration and most dear to us should be accounted as such only insofar as they are related to Rāma. Bearing this in mind, accompany him to the forest and derive, my son, the benefit of your existence in the world. (4)
भूरि भाग भाजनु भयहु मोहि समेत बलि जाउँ। जौं तुम्हरें मन छाड़ि छलु कीन्ह राम पद ठाउँ॥७४॥
Meaning
“It is your great good fortune as well as mine, I solemnly declare, that your mind, abhorring any evil course, has sincerely taken refuge in Rāma’s feet. (74)
