Doha 12c
प्रभु बिलोकि मुनि मन अनुरागा। तुरत दिब्य सिंघासन मागा॥ रबि सम तेज सो बरनि न जाई। बैठे राम द्विजन्ह सिरु नाई॥१॥
जनकसुता समेत रघुराई। पेखि प्रहरषे मुनि समुदाई॥ बेद मंत्र तब द्विजन्ह उचारे। नभ सुर मुनि जय जयति पुकारे॥२॥
प्रथम तिलक बसिष्ट मुनि कीन्हा। पुनि सब बिप्रन्ह आयसु दीन्हा॥ सुत बिलोकि हरषीं महतारी। बार बार आरती उतारी॥३॥
बिप्रन्ह दान बिबिधि बिधि दीन्हे। जाचक सकल अजाचक कीन्हे॥ सिंघासन पर त्रिभुअन साईं। देखि सुरन्ह दुंदुभीं बजाईं॥४॥
Meaning
The heart of sage Vasiṣṭha was enraptured as he gazed upon the Lord; he sent at once for the heavenly throne, which was effulgent as the sun and defied all description. Bowing His head to the Brāhmaṇas, Śrī Rāma took His seat thereon. (1) The whole host of sages was overjoyed as they looked upon Śrī Raghunātha along with Jānakī. Then the Brāhmaṇas recited the Vedic hymns, while in the heavens above the gods and sages shouted “Victory! Victory!!” (2) Sage Vasiṣṭha first of all applied the sacred Tilaka himself and then he directed all the other Brāhmaṇas to do likewise. The mothers were transported with joy at the sight of their son seated on the throne and performed His Āratī again and again. (3) They bestowed a variety of gifts on the Brāhmaṇas and gave the beggars so much that they would not need to beg anymore. Perceiving the lord of all the three spheres seated on the throne of Ayodhyā, the gods beat their kettle-drums. (4)
नभ दुंदुभीं बाजहिं बिपुल गंधर्ब किंनर गावहीं। नाचहिं अपछरा बृंद परमानंद सुर मुनि पावहीं॥ भरतादि अनुज बिभीषनांगद हनुमदादि समेत ते। गहें छत्र चामर ब्यजन धनु असि चर्म सक्ति बिराजते॥१॥
श्री सहित दिनकर बंस भूषन काम बहु छबि सोहई। नव अंबुधर बर गात अंबर पीत सुर मन मोहई॥ मुकुटांगदादि बिचित्र भूषन अंग अंगन्हि प्रति सजे। अंभोज नयन बिसाल उर भुज धन्य नर निरखंति जे॥२॥
Meaning
A large number of kettle-drums sounded in the heavens above; the Gandharvas and Kinnaras (the celestial musicians) sang and heavenly nymphs danced to the supreme delight of the gods and sages. Bharata, Lakṣmaṇa and Śatrughna with Vibhīṣaṇa, Aṅgada, Hanumān and the rest shone forth beside the Lord, each holding severally the royal umbrella, chowrie, fan, bow, sword with shield and spear. (1) With Sītā by His side, the Jewel of the solar race, Śrī Rāma, shone forth with the beauty of a myriad Cupids. His exquisite form, possessing the hue of a fresh rain-cloud, clad in yellow robes, enchanted the hearts of gods. A diadem, armlets and other marvellous ornaments adorned the various parts of His body; He had lotus-like eyes and a broad chest and long arms. Blessed indeed are those men who behold such a form. (2)
वह सोभा समाज सुख कहत न बनइ खगेस। बरनहिं सारद सेष श्रुति सो रस जान महेस॥१२ (क)॥
भिन्न भिन्न अस्तुति करि गए सुर निज निज धाम। बंदी बेष बेद तब आए जहँ श्रीराम॥१२ (ख)॥
प्रभु सर्बग्य कीन्ह अति आदर कृपानिधान। लखेउ न काहूँ मरम कछु लगे करन गुन गान॥१२ (ग)॥
Meaning
O king of birds, (continues Kākabhuśuṇḍi) the beauty of the sight, the uniqueness of the assembly and the delight of the occasion each defied description. Sarasvatī (the goddess of learning), Śeṣa (the thousand-headed serpent-god) and the Vedas ever describe them; while their sapor (bliss) is known to the great Lord Śiva alone. (12 A) Having severally hymned the Lord’s praises the gods returned to their respective abodes. Then came the Vedas, in the disguise of bards, into the presence of Śrī Rāma. (12 B) The omniscient and All-merciful Lord received them with great honour, though no one else could discern the mystery, and the bards began to recite His glories: (12 C)
