Doha 86
उभय घरी अस कौतुक भयऊ। जौ लगि कामु संभु पहिं गयऊ॥ सिवहि बिलोकि ससंकेउ मारू। भयउ जथाथिति सबु संसारू॥१॥
भए तुरत सब जीव सुखारे। जिमि मद उतरि गएँ मतवारे॥ रुद्रहि देखि मदन भय माना। दुराधरष दुर्गम भगवाना॥२॥
फिरत लाज कछु करि नहिं जाई। मरनु ठानि मन रचेसि उपाई॥ प्रगटेसि तुरत रुचिर रितुराजा। कुसुमित नव तरु राजि बिराजा॥३॥
बन उपबन बापिका तड़ागा। परम सुभग सब दिसा बिभागा॥ जहँ तहँ जनु उमगत अनुरागा। देखि मुएहुँ मन मनसिज जागा॥४॥
Meaning
The unusual spectacle, lasted for an hour or so till Kāmadeva, the god of love, reached Śiva. Cupid trembled at the sight of Śiva; the whole world regained its normal state. (1) All living beings regained their peace of mind at once, even as the intoxicated feel relieved when their spell of drunkenness is over. The god of love was struck with terror at the sight of Bhagavān Rudra (Śiva), who is so difficult to conquer and so hard to comprehend. (2) He felt shy in retreating but was incapable of doing anything; ultimately he resolved upon death and devised a plan. He forthwith manifested the lovely spring, the king of all seasons; rows of young trees laden with flowers appeared so charming. (3) Woods and groves, wells and ponds and all the quarters of heaven assumed a most delightful aspect. Everywhere nature overflowed with love, as it were; the sight aroused passion even in deaden souls. (4)
जागइ मनोभव मुएहुँ मन बन सुभगता न परै कही। सीतल सुगंध सुमंद मारुत मदन अनल सखा सही॥ बिकसे सरन्हि बहु कंज गुंजत पुंज मंजुल मधुकरा। कलहंस पिक सुक सरस रव करि गान नाचहिं अपछरा॥
Meaning
Passion was aroused even in deaden souls and the beauty of the forest beggared description. A cool, gentle and fragrant breeze fanned the fire of passion as a faithful companion. Rows of lotuses blossomed in lakes and swarms of charming bees hummed on them. Swans, cuckoos and parrots uttered their sweet notes; while celestial damsels sang and danced.
सकल कला करि कोटि बिधि हारेउ सेन समेत। चली न अचल समाधि सिव कोपेउ हृदयनिकेत॥८६॥
Meaning
The god of love with his army of followers exhausted all his numberless stratagems; Śiva’s deep and uninterrupted trance, however, could not be disturbed. This made Cupid angry. (86)
