Doha 81

चौ०

एहि बिधि राम सबहि समुझावा। गुर पद पदुम हरषि सिरु नावा॥ गनपति गौरि गिरीसु मनाई। चले असीस पाइ रघुराई॥१॥

चौ०

राम चलत अति भयउ बिषादू। सुनि न जाइ पुर आरत नादू॥ कुसगुन लंक अवध अति सोकू। हरष बिषाद बिबस सुरलोकू॥२॥

चौ०

गइ मुरुछा तब भूपति जागे। बोलि सुमंत्रु कहन अस लागे॥ रामु चले बन प्रान न जाहीं। केहि सुख लागि रहत तन माहीं॥३॥

चौ०

एहि तें कवन ब्यथा बलवाना। जो दुखु पाइ तजहिं तनु प्राना॥ पुनि धरि धीर कहइ नरनाहू। लै रथु संग सखा तुम्ह जाहू॥४॥

Evil omens occurred in Laṅkā and Ayodhyā was plunged in grief, while in the heaven the gods were overcome with a mixed feeling of joy and sorrow. (2) When the spell of unconsciousness broke, the king woke and calling Sumantra thus began, “Rāma has left for the woods, but my life refuses to depart. I wonder what joy it seeks after by clinging to this body! (3) “What agony more severe than this can I have that will draw my breath out of my body?” Then, recovering himself, the king said, “Go to him, my friend, with your chariot.(4)
