Doha 15b
शरद्-ऋतु-वर्णन
दादुर धुनि चहु दिसा सुहाई। बेद पढ़हिं जनु बटु समुदाई॥ नव पल्लव भए बिटप अनेका। साधक मन जस मिलें बिबेका॥१॥
अर्क जवास पात बिनु भयऊ। जस सुराज खल उद्यम गयऊ॥ खोजत कतहुँ मिलइ नहिं धूरी। करइ क्रोध जिमि धरमहि दूरी॥२॥
ससि संपन्न सोह महि कैसी। उपकारी कै संपति जैसी॥ निसि तम घन खद्योत बिराजा। जनु दंभिन्ह कर मिला समाजा॥३॥
महाबृष्टि चलि फूटि किआरीं। जिमि सुतंत्र भएँ बिगरहिं नारीं॥ कृषी निरावहिं चतुर किसाना। जिमि बुध तजहिं मोह मद माना॥४॥
देखिअत चक्रबाक खग नाहीं। कलिहि पाइ जिमि धर्म पराहीं॥ ऊषर बरषइ तृन नहिं जामा। जिमि हरिजन हियँ उपज न कामा॥५॥
बिबिध जंतु संकुल महि भ्राजा। प्रजा बाढ़ जिमि पाइ सुराजा॥ जहँ तहँ रहे पथिक थकि नाना। जिमि इंद्रिय गन उपजें ग्याना॥६॥
Meaning
“On all sides one hears the delightful croaking of frogs, which reminds one of a batch of religious students chanting the Vedas. Clothed with new leaves the trees of different species look as green and cheerful as the mind of a striving soul who has attained spiritual wisdom.(1) “The leaves of the Āka and Javāsa plants have fallen off even as under a good government the plans of the wicked come to naught. Dust cannot be found even if one searches for it, just as piety is scared away by anger. (2) “The earth rich with crops appears as delightful as the wealth of a generous man. In the thick darkness of the night fireflies gleam like a muster band of hypocrites. (3) “The embankments of the fields have been breached by torrential rains just as women get spoiled by licentiousness. Clever husbandmen protect their crop by uprooting the weeds, just as the wise discard infatuation, vanity and pride. (4) “The Cakravāka birds are no more to be seen, just as virtues disappear in the Kali age. Even though it rains on the barren lands as well, not a blade of grass sprouts on it, just as concupiscence does not sprout in the heart of a devotee of Śrī Hari. (5) “The earth looks charming with the swarms of various living creatures even as the population grows under a good government. Many a weary traveller has stopped here and there just as with the dawning of wisdom the senses become still. (6)
कबहुँ प्रबल बह मारुत जहँ तहँ मेघ बिलाहिं। जिमि कपूत के उपजें कुल सद्धर्म नसाहिं॥१५ (क)॥
कबहुँ दिवस महँ निबिड़ तम कबहुँक प्रगट पतंग। बिनसइ उपजइ ग्यान जिमि पाइ कुसंग सुसंग॥१५ (ख)॥
Meaning
“Sometimes a strong wind would blow and disperse the clouds in various directions, just as with the birth of an unworthy son the noble traditions of a family get extinct. (15 A) “Now it becomes pitch dark (due to clouds) even during the day, while at other times the sun would shine brightly, just as the light of wisdom is obscured in the company of the vile and manifests itself in the company of the good.
