बिपुल बाजने बाजन लागे। नभ सुर नगर लोग अनुरागे॥ बने बराती बरनि न जाहीं। महा मुदित मन सुख न समाहीं॥२॥

आरति करहिं मुदित पुर नारी। हरषहिं निरखि कुअँर बर चारी॥ सिबिका सुभग ओहार उघारी। देखि दुलहिनिन्ह होहिं सुखारी॥४॥

Meaning

Bards, minstrels, rhapsodists and skilled dancers chanted the glory of Śrī Rāma, who illumines all the three worlds. Auspicious shouts of victory and the sacred and melodious chanting of the Vedas were heard in all the ten directions. (1) Musical instruments of all kinds began to be played; gods in heaven and men in the city were enraptured alike. Members of the marriage-party looked smart beyond description. They were highly delighted and could not contain themselves with joy. (2) The people of Ayodhyā then greeted the king, and were delighted at the very sight of Śrī Rāma. They scattered about Him jewels and vestments; their eyes were full of tears of love and their bodies thrilled all over. (3) The women of the city gladly performed Āratī and rejoiced to see the four noble princes. They were all the more gratified when they lifted the curtains of the beautiful palanquins and beheld the brides. (4)
