Doha 29

चौ०

जौं न होति सीता सुधि पाई। मधुबन के फल सकहिं कि खाई॥ एहि बिधि मन बिचार कर राजा। आइ गए कपि सहित समाजा॥१॥

चौ०

आइ सबन्हि नावा पद सीसा। मिलेउ सबन्हि अति प्रेम कपीसा॥ पूँछी कुसल कुसल पद देखी। राम कृपाँ भा काजु बिसेषी॥२॥

चौ०

नाथ काजु कीन्हेउ हनुमाना। राखे सकल कपिन्ह के प्राना॥ सुनि सुग्रीव बहुरि तेहि मिलेऊ। कपिन्ह सहित रघुपति पहिं चलेऊ॥३॥

चौ०

राम कपिन्ह जब आवत देखा। किएँ काजु मन हरष बिसेषा॥ फटिक सिला बैठे द्वौ भाई। परे सकल कपि चरनन्हि जाई॥४॥

Meaning

‘Had they failed to get any news of Sītā, they could never have dared to eat the fruit of Madhuvana.’ While the king was thus musing, the monkey chiefs arrived with their hordes. (1) Drawing near they all bowed their head at his feet and the Lord of the monkeys received them all most cordially and enquired after their welfare. “It is well with us, now that we have seen your feet. By Śrī Rāma’s grace the work has been accomplished with remarkable success. (2) “It is Hanumān, Your Majesty, who did everything and saved the life of the whole monkey host.” Hearing this Sugrīva embraced Hanumān again and then proceeded with all the monkeys to see Śrī Raghunātha. (3) When Śrī Rāma saw the monkeys approaching with their mission duly accomplished, He was immensely delighted at heart. The two brothers were seated on a crystal rock and all the monkeys went and prostrated (lit. fell) at Their feet. (4)

दो०

प्रीति सहित सब भेटे रघुपति करुना पुंज। पूँछी कुसल नाथ अब कुसल देखि पद कंज॥२९॥
