# Sunderkand · Doha 33

**चौ०** 
> बार बार प्रभु चहइ उठावा। प्रेम मगन तेहि उठब न भावा॥  
> प्रभु कर पंकज कपि कें सीसा। सुमिरि सो दसा मगन गौरीसा॥१॥

**चौ०** 
> सावधान मन करि पुनि संकर। लागे कहन कथा अति सुंदर॥  
> कपि उठाइ प्रभु हृदयँ लगावा। कर गहि परम निकट बैठावा॥२॥

**चौ०** 
> कहु कपि रावन पालित लंका। केहि बिधि दहेउ दुर्ग अति बंका॥  
> प्रभु प्रसन्न जाना हनुमाना। बोला बचन बिगत अभिमाना॥३॥

**चौ०** 
> साखामृग कै बड़ि मनुसाई। साखा तें साखा पर जाई॥  
> नाघि सिंधु हाटकपुर जारा। निसिचर गन बधि बिपिन उजारा॥४॥

**चौ०** 
> सो सब तव प्रताप रघुराई। नाथ न कछू मोरि प्रभुताई॥५॥

Meaning: Again and again the Lord sought to raise Hanumān up; he, however, was so absorbed in love that he would not rise. The lotus hand of the Lord rested on Hanumān’s head. Śiva was overcome with emotion as He recalled Hanumān’s enviable lot.* (1)

* It should be remembered in this connection that Lord Śiva Himself had taken the form of Hanumān. It was, therefore, easy for Him to recall that thrilling experience.

But, recovering Himself, Śiva resumed the most charming narrative. The Lord lifted up Hanumān and clasped him to His bosom; then He took him by the hand and seated him very close to Him. (2)

“Tell me, Hanumān, how could you burn Rāvaṇa’s stronghold of Laṅkā, a most impregnable fortress?” When Hanumān found the Lord so pleased, he replied in words altogether free from pride. (3)

“A monkey’s greatest valour lies in his skipping about from one bough to another. That I should have been able to leap across the ocean, burn the city of gold, kill the demon host and lay waste the Aśoka grove, (4)

“was all due to Your beneficence; no credit, my lord, is due to me for the same. (5)

**दो०** 
> ता कहुँ प्रभु कछु अगम नहिं जा पर तुम्ह अनुकूल।  
> तव प्रभावँ बड़वानलहि जारि सकइ खलु तूल॥३३॥

Meaning: “Nothing is unattainable, my lord, to him who enjoys Your grace. Through Your power a mere shred of cotton can surely burn a submarine fire (the impossible can be made possible). (33)
