Doha 110
जदपि जोषिता नहिं अधिकारी। दासी मन क्रम बचन तुम्हारी॥ गूढ़उ तत्त्व न साधु दुरावहिं। आरत अधिकारी जहँ पावहिं॥ १ ॥
अति आरति पूछउँ सुरराया। रघुपति कथा कहहु करि दाया॥ प्रथम सो कारन कहहु बिचारी। निर्गुन ब्रह्म सगुन बपु धारी॥ २ ॥
पुनि प्रभु कहहु राम अवतारा। बालचरित पुनि कहहु उदारा॥ कहहु जथा जानकी बिबाहीं। राज तजा सो दूषन काहीं॥ ३ ॥
बन बसि कीन्हे चरित अपारा। कहहु नाथ जिमि रावन मारा॥ राज बैठि कीन्हीं बहु लीला। सकल कहहु संकर सुखसीला॥ ४ ॥
Meaning
“Though being a woman I am not qualified to hear it; I am Your servant in thought, word and deed. Saints do not withhold even an esoteric truth wherever they find a person with intense devotion and keenness and, therefore, qualified to receive it. (1) “O Lord of Gods! I entreat You with a heart sore distressed; be gracious enough to narrate the story of Śrī Raghunātha. First tell me after a careful thought what makes the Nirguṇa Brahma assume a Saguṇa form. (2) “Then, my lord, relate the story of Śrī Rāma’s descent, and tell me next the charming exploits of His childhood. Then let me know how He wedded Jānakī, and the fault for which He had to renounce His father’s kingdom later on. (3) “Then describe the innumerable deeds performed by Him while He lived in the forest; and further tell me, my lord, how He killed Rāvaṇa. Then relate, O blissful Śaṅkara, all the numerous sports that were enacted by Him after his coronation. (4)
बहुरि कहहु करुनायतन कीन्ह जो अचरज राम। प्रजा सहित रघुबंसमनि किमि गवने निज धाम॥ ११० ॥
Meaning
“Thereafter relate, O gracious Lord, the miracle wrought by Śrī Rāma, viz., how Śrī Raghunātha proceeded to His divine Abode alongwith all His subjects. (110)
