Doha 205
बंधु सखा सँग लेहिं बोलाई। बन मृगया नित खेलहिं जाई॥ पावन मृग मारहिं जियँ जानी। दिन प्रति नृपहि देखावहिं आनी॥१॥
जे मृग राम बान के मारे। ते तनु तजि सुरलोक सिधारे॥ अनुज सखा सँग भोजन करहीं। मातु पिता अग्या अनुसरहीं॥२॥
जेहि बिधि सुखी होहिं पुर लोगा। करहिं कृपानिधि सोइ संजोगा॥ बेद पुरान सुनहिं मन लाई। आपु कहहिं अनुजन्ह समुझाई॥३॥
प्रातकाल उठि कै रघुनाथा। मातु पिता गुरु नावहिं माथा॥ आयसु मागि करहिं पुर काजा। देखि चरित हरषइ मन राजा॥४॥
Meaning
Calling his brothers and playmates, Śrī Rāma would take them with Him and go out to the forest for hunting everyday. He would consciously kill only the holy game and brought and showed the daily bag to the king. (1) The beasts that were killed by Śrī Rāma’s shaft went straight to heaven after death. He took His meals with His younger brothers and companions and obeyed the orders of His parents. (2) He would always perform such acts as would be delightful to the people of the city. He would listen to the Vedas and Purāṇas with rapt attention and would Himself expound the truths contained therein to His younger brothers. (3) Rising at break of day, Śrī Raghunātha would bow His head to His parents and preceptor and, obtaining their permission, engaged Himself with the affairs of the state. The king was glad at heart to see His noble acts. (4)
ब्यापक अकल अनीह अज निर्गुन नाम न रूप। भगत हेतु नाना बिधि करत चरित्र अनूप॥२०५॥
Meaning
The Lord, who is all-pervading, indivisible, desireless, birthless, attributeless and without name or form, performed marvellous acts of various kinds for the sake of His devotees. (205)
