Doha 2
कोसलेस दसरथ के जाए। हम पितु बचन मानि बन आए॥ नाम राम लछिमन दोउ भाई। संग नारि सुकुमारि सुहाई॥१॥
इहाँ हरी निसिचर बैदेही। बिप्र फिरहिं हम खोजत तेही॥ आपन चरित कहा हम गाई। कहहु बिप्र निज कथा बुझाई॥२॥
प्रभु पहिचानि परेउ गहि चरना। सो सुख उमा जाइ नहिं बरना॥ पुलकित तन मुख आव न बचना। देखत रुचिर बेष कै रचना॥३॥
पुनि धीरजु धरि अस्तुति कीन्ही। हरष हृदयँ निज नाथहि चीन्ही॥ मोर न्याउ मैं पूछा साईं। तुम्ह पूछहु कस नर की नाईं॥४॥
तव माया बस फिरउँ भुलाना। ता ते मैं नहिं प्रभु पहिचाना॥५॥
Meaning
“We are sons of King Daśaratha, the lord of Kosala, and have come to the forest in obedience to our father’s command. We, the two brothers, are called by the names of Rāma and Lakṣmaṇa. We had with us a pretty and delicate young lady, (1) “Jānakī (my consort), has been carried away by some demon here. It is in quest of her that we are roaming about, O holy Brāhmaṇa. We have told you about ourselves; now tell us about yourself in a comprehensible manner, O Brāhmaṇa.” (2) Hanumān recognized his lord and falling to the ground clasped His feet. That joy, O Pārvatī, was more than could be described. A thrill ran through his body and no words came to his lips as he gazed on their lovely attire. (3) Then recovering himself he sang His hymns and was glad at heart to have found his master. “It was quite in the fitness of things that I enquired of you, my lord; but how is it that You ask me like a mortal? (4) “I have been roving in delusion under the spell of Your Māyā (deluding potency); it was for this reason that I failed to recognize you, my lord. (5)
एकु मैं मंद मोहबस कुटिल हृदय अग्यान। पुनि प्रभु मोहि बिसारेउ दीनबंधु भगवान॥२॥
Meaning
“In the first place I am dull-witted and deluded, wicked at heart and ignorant; to crown all, my master, who is benevolent to the humble and is no other than the almighty Lord Himself, has forsaken me. (2)
