# Bal Kand · Doha 241

**चौ०** 
> राजकुअँर तेहि अवसर आए। मनहुँ मनोहरता तन छाए॥  
> गुन सागर नागर बर बीरा। सुंदर स्यामल गौर सरीरा॥१॥

**चौ०** 
> राज समाज बिराजत रूरे। उडगन महुँ जनु जुग बिधु पूरे॥  
> जिन्ह कें रही भावना जैसी। प्रभु मूरति तिन्ह देखी तैसी॥२॥

**चौ०** 
> देखहिं रूप महा रनधीरा। मनहुँ बीर रसु धरें सरीरा॥  
> डरे कुटिल नृप प्रभुहि निहारी। मनहुँ भयानक मूरति भारी॥३॥

**चौ०** 
> रहे असुर छल छोनिप बेषा। तिन्ह प्रभु प्रगट काल सम देखा॥  
> पुरबासिन्ह देखे दोउ भाई। नरभूषन लोचन सुखदाई॥४॥

Meaning: Meanwhile, there arrived the two princes, the very abodes of beauty, as it were, both oceans of virtue, graceful in manners and gallant heroes, charming of forms, the one dark and the other fair. (1)

Shining bright in the galaxy of princes, they looked like two full moons in the midst of stars. Everyone looked on the Lord’s form according to the conception each had about Him. (2)

Those who were surpassingly staunch in battle gazed on His form as though He was the heroic sentiment personified. The wicked kings trembled at the sight of the Lord as if He had a most terrible form. (3)

The demons, who were cunningly disguised as princes, beheld the Lord as Death in visible form, while the citizens regarded the two brothers as the ornaments of men and the delight of their eyes. (4)

**दो०** 
> नारि बिलोकहिं हरषि हियँ निज निज रुचि अनुरूप।  
> जनु सोहत सिंगार धरि मूरति परम अनूप॥२४१॥

Meaning: With joy in their heart the women saw Him according to the attitude of mind each had towards Him, as if the beautific sentiment itself had appeared in an exceedingly matchless form. (241)
