Doha 17

चौ०

प्रनवउँ परिजन सहित बिदेहू। जाहि राम पद गूढ़ सनेहू॥ जोग भोग महँ राखेउ गोई। राम बिलोकत प्रगटेउ सोई॥१॥

चौ०

प्रनवउँ प्रथम भरत के चरना। जासु नेम ब्रत जाइ न बरना॥ राम चरन पंकज मन जासू। लुबुध मधुप इव तजइ न पासू॥२॥

चौ०

बंदउँ लछिमन पद जलजाता। सीतल सुभग भगत सुखदाता॥ रघुपति कीरति बिमल पताका। दंड समान भयउ जस जाका॥३॥

चौ०

सेष सहस्रसीस जग कारन। जो अवतरेउ भूमि भय टारन॥ सदा सो सानुकूल रह मो पर। कृपासिंधु सौमित्रि गुनाकर॥४॥

चौ०

रिपुसूदन पद कमल नमामी। सूर सुसील भरत अनुगामी॥ महाबीर बिनवउँ हनुमाना। राम जासु जस आप बखाना॥५॥

Meaning

I make obeisance to king Janaka, alongwith his family, who bore affection for the feet of Śrī Rāma. Even though he had veiled it under the cloak of Yoga (of self-abnegation) and opulence, it broke out the moment he saw Śrī Rāma. (1) Of Śrī Rāma’s brothers, I bow first of all to the feet of Bharata, whose self-discipline and religious austerity beggar description and whose mind thirsts for the lotus feet of Śrī Rāma like a bee and never leaves their closeness. (2) I reverence the lotus feet of Lakṣmaṇa—cool and charming and a source of delight to the devotees—whose renown served as a staff for hoisting the spotless flag of Śrī Rāma’s glory. (3) He is no other than the thousand-headed serpent-god, Śeṣa, the support of the universe, who incarnated to dispel the fear of the earth. May that son of Sumitrā, Lakṣmaṇa, an ocean of benevolence and a mine of virtues, be ever propitious to me. (4) I adore the lotus-feet of Śatrughna (lit., the slayer of his foes), who is valiant yet amiable in disposition, and a constant companion of Bharata. I supplicate Hanumān, the great hero, whose glory has been extolled by Śrī Rāma Himself. (5)

सो०

प्रनवउँ पवनकुमार खल बन पावक ग्यान घन। जासु हृदय आगार बसहिं राम सर चाप धर॥१७॥

Meaning

I greet Hanumān, the son of the wind-god, an embodiment of wisdom, who is fire, as it were, for the forest of the wicked, and in the abode of whose heart resides Śrī Rāma, wielding a bow and arrows. (17)
