# Sunderkand · Doha 31

**चौ०** 
> चलत मोहि चूड़ामनि दीन्ही। रघुपति हृदयँ लाइ सोइ लीन्ही॥  
> नाथ जुगल लोचन भरि बारी। बचन कहे कछु जनककुमारी॥१॥

**चौ०** 
> अनुज समेत गहेहु प्रभु चरना। दीन बंधु प्रनतारति हरना॥  
> मन क्रम बचन चरन अनुरागी। केहिं अपराध नाथ हौं त्यागी॥२॥

**चौ०** 
> अवगुन एक मोर मैं माना। बिछुरत प्रान न कीन्ह पयाना॥  
> नाथ सो नयनन्हि को अपराधा। निसरत प्रान करहिं हठि बाधा॥३॥

**चौ०** 
> बिरह अगिनि तनु तूल समीरा। स्वास जरइ छन माहिं सरीरा॥  
> नयन स्रवहिं जलु निज हित लागी। जरैं न पाव देह बिरहागी॥४॥

**चौ०** 
> सीता कै अति बिपति बिसाला। बिनहिं कहें भलि दीनदयाला॥५॥

Meaning: “When I was leaving, She gave me this jewel from the top of Her head.” Śrī Raghunātha took it and pressed it to His bosom. “My lord, with tears in both Her eyes, Jānakī spoke the following few words: (1)

“ ‘Clasp the feet of my lord and His younger brother, crying: O befriender of the distressed, reliever of the suppliant’s agony, I am devoted to Your feet in thought, word and deed; yet for what offence, my lord, have You forsaken me? (2)

‘I do admit one fault of mine, that my life did not depart the moment I was separated from You. That, however, my lord, is the fault of my eyes, which forcibly prevent my life from escaping. (3)

‘The agony of separation from You is like fire, my sighs fan it as a gust of wind and in between stands my body like a heap of cotton, which would have been consumed in an instant. But my eyes, in their own interest (i. e., to feast themselves on Your beauty) rain a flood of tears; that is why the body fails to catch the fire of desolation.’ (4)

“Sītā’s distress is so overwhelmingly great, and You are so compassionate to the afflicted, that it is better not to describe it. (5)

**दो०** 
> निमिष निमिष करुनानिधि जाहिं कलप सम बीति।  
> बेगि चलिअ प्रभु आनिअ भुज बल खल दल जीति॥३१॥

Meaning: “Each single moment, O fountain of mercy, passes like an age to Her. Therefore, march quickly, my lord, and vanquishing the demon crew by Your mighty arm, recover Her.”(31)
