# Lanka Kand · Doha 7

**चौ०** 
> नाथ दीनदयाल रघुराई। बाघउ सनमुख गएँ न खाई॥  
> चाहिअ करन सो सब करि बीते। तुम्ह सुर असुर चराचर जीते॥१॥

**चौ०** 
> संत कहहिं असि नीति दसानन। चौथेंपन जाइहि नृप कानन॥  
> तासु भजनु कीजिअ तहँ भर्ता। जो कर्ता पालक संहर्ता॥२॥

**चौ०** 
> सोइ रघुबीर प्रनत अनुरागी। भजहु नाथ ममता सब त्यागी॥  
> मुनिबर जतनु करहिं जेहि लागी। भूप राजु तजि होहिं बिरागी॥३॥

**चौ०** 
> सोइ कोसलाधीस रघुराया। आयउ करन तोहि पर दाया॥  
> जौं पिय मानहु मोर सिखावन। सुजसु होइ तिहुँ पुर अति पावन॥४॥

Meaning: “Śrī Raghunātha, my lord, is compassionate to the humble (He will surely forgive you). Even a tiger (the most ferocious of all beasts) will not devour a man if he goes submissively before him. You have already accomplished all that you had to do: you have conquered not only gods and demons but the whole animate and inanimate creation.(1)

“Holy men, my lord, have declared this maxim that a monarch should retire to the forest in the fourth stage of his life. There, my Lord! you should adore Him who is the creator, preserver and destroyer of the universe. (2)

“Renouncing all worldly ties, my lord, worship Śrī Raghuvīra, who is fond of the suppliant. The same Śrī Raghunātha, the King of Kosala, whom the greatest of sages strive hard to realize and for whom monarchs relinquish their throne, (3)

“and shed every attachment—it is He who has arrived here to shower His grace on you. If, my beloved, you accept my advice, your fair and exceedingly holy renown shall spread through all the three spheres.” (4)

**दो०** 
> अस कहि नयन नीर भरि गहि पद कंपित गात।  
> नाथ भजहु रघुनाथहि अचल होइ अहिवात॥७॥

Meaning: So saying she clasped him by the feet; and with eyes full of tears and shaking in every limb she added, “My lord, worship Śrī Raghunātha so that I may live with you in perpetuity.” (7)
