Doha 97
नारद कर मैं काह बिगारा। भवनु मोर जिन्ह बसत उजारा॥ अस उपदेसु उमहि जिन्ह दीन्हा। बौरे बरहि लागि तपु कीन्हा॥१॥
साचेहुँ उन्ह कें मोह न माया। उदासीन धनु धामु न जाया॥ पर घर घालक लाज न भीरा। बाँझ कि जान प्रसव कै पीरा॥२॥
जननिहि बिकल बिलोकि भवानी। बोली जुत बिबेक मृदु बानी॥ अस बिचारि सोचहि मति माता। सो न टरइ जो रचइ बिधाता॥३॥
करम लिखा जौं बाउर नाहू। तौ कत दोसु लगाइअ काहू॥ तुम्ह सन मिटहिं कि बिधि के अंका। मातु ब्यर्थ जनि लेहु कलंका॥४॥
Meaning
“What harm have I done to Nārada that he should have ruined my happy home and tendered such advice to Umā as made her undergo penance for securing a crazy husband? (1) “In good sooth the sage is passionless and without affection; he has no affluence, no dwelling and no wife and is indifferent to all. That is why he destroys others’ homes. He has neither shame nor fear. What does a barren woman know of the pains of childbirth?” (2) Seeing Her mother distressed, Pārvatī addressed the following soft yet prudent words to her. “Whatever is ordained by Providence cannot be altered. Realizing this be not worried, mother. (3) “If I am destined to have a crazy husband, why should anyone be blamed for it? Can you alter the decree of Providence? Therefore, take no reproach on you unnecessarily. (4)
जनि लेहु मातु कलंकु करुना परिहरहु अवसर नहीं। दुखु सुखु जो लिखा लिलार हमरें जाब जहँ पाउब तहीं॥ सुनि उमा बचन बिनीत कोमल सकल अबला सोचहीं। बहु भाँति बिधिहि लगाइ दूषन नयन बारि बिमोचहीं॥
Meaning
“Take no reproach on you; cease lamenting; this is no occasion for it. The amount of joy and sorrow that has fallen to my lot I must reap wherever I go.” Hearing the soft and polite words of Pārvatī all the ladies became sad. They blamed the Creator in many ways and tears flowed from their eyes.
तेहि अवसर नारद सहित अरु रिषि सप्त समेत। समाचार सुनि तुहिनगिरि गवने तुरत निकेत॥९७॥
Meaning
On hearing the news, that very moment Himācala came to his house alongwith Nārada and the Seven Seers. (97)
