# Bal Kand · Doha 332

**चौ०** 
> जनक सनेहु सीलु करतूती। नृपु सब भाँति सराह बिभूती॥  
> दिन उठि बिदा अवधपति मागा। राखहिं जनकु सहित अनुरागा॥१॥

**चौ०** 
> नित नूतन आदरु अधिकाई। दिन प्रति सहस भाँति पहुनाई॥  
> नित नव नगर अनंद उछाहू। दसरथ गवनु सोहाइ न काहू॥२॥

**चौ०** 
> बहुत दिवस बीते एहि भाँती। जनु सनेह रजु बँधे बराती॥  
> कौसिक सतानंद तब जाई। कहा बिदेह नृपहि समुझाई॥३॥

**चौ०** 
> अब दसरथ कहँ आयसु देहू। जद्यपि छाड़ि न सकहु सनेहू॥  
> भलेहिं नाथ कहि सचिव बोलाए। कहि जय जीव सीस तिन्ह नाए॥४॥

Meaning: King Daśaratha extolled in everyway Janaka’s affection, amiability, affluence and doings. Every morning the King of Ayodhyā asked for leave to return home; but each time Janaka would lovingly detain him. (1)

The royal guest received greater and enhanced attentions from day to day and was entertained in a thousand ways each day. The city witnessed a new rejoicing and festivity every day; no one could relish Daśaratha’s departure. (2)

In this way a number of days passed as though members of the marriage-party were tied by cords of love. The sages, Viśvāmitra and Śatānanda, then called on King Janaka and advised him saying, (3)

“Now you must let Daśaratha go, even though you may not be able to part with him out of love.” “Very well, my lord”, replied the king, and sent for his ministers, who came and bowed their heads saying, “May you be victorious, may you live long!” (4)

**दो०** 
> अवधनाथु चाहत चलन भीतर करहु जनाउ।  
> भए प्रेमबस सचिव सुनि बिप्र सभासद राउ॥३३२॥

Meaning: “The King of Ayodhyā desires to take leave: make this known in the gynaeceum.” At these words the ministers, Brāhmaṇas, courtiers as well as the king himself were overwhelmed with emotion. (332)
