Doha 23
फूलहिं फरहिं सदा तरु कानन। रहहिं एक सँग गज पंचानन॥ खग मृग सहज बयरु बिसराई। सबन्हि परस्पर प्रीति बढ़ाई॥१॥
कूजहिं खग मृग नाना बृंदा। अभय चरहिं बन करहिं अनंदा॥ सीतल सुरभि पवन बह मंदा। गुंजत अलि लै चलि मकरंदा॥२॥
लता बिटप मागें मधु चवहीं। मनभावतो धेनु पय स्रवहीं॥ ससि संपन्न सदा रह धरनी। त्रेताँ भइ कृतजुग कै करनी॥३॥
प्रगटीं गिरिन्ह बिबिधि मनि खानी। जगदातमा भूप जग जानी॥ सरिता सकल बहहिं बर बारी। सीतल अमल स्वाद सुखकारी॥४॥
सागर निज मरजादाँ रहहीं। डारहिं रत्न तटन्हि नर लहहीं॥ सरसिज संकुल सकल तड़ागा। अति प्रसन्न दस दिसा बिभागा॥५॥
Meaning
Trees in the forest blossomed and bore fruit throughout the year; the elephant and the lion lived together. Nay, birds and beasts of all kinds had forgotten their characteristic animosities and developed friendly relations with one another. (1) Birds sang and beasts fearlessly moved about in the woods in distinct herds, making merry all the time. The air breathed cool, soft and fragrant; bees hummed even as they moved about laden with honey. (2) Creepers and trees dropped honey on mere asking for it; cows yielded milk to one’s heart’s content. The earth was ever full of crops; even in the Tretā age the conditions of the Satyayuga prevailed. (3) Conscious of the fact that the Ruler of the earth was no other than the Universal Spirit, the mountains brought forth their mines containing jewels of every description. All rivers were full of excellent water—cool, limpid, and pleasant to the taste. (4) The oceans kept within their bounds and the waves scattered jewels on their shores for men to gather. Ponds were all thick with lotuses and every quarter was clear and bright. (5)
बिधु महि पूर मयूखन्हि रबि तप जेतनेहि काज। मागें बारिद देहिं जल रामचंद्र कें राज॥२३॥
Meaning
The moon flooded the earth with her rays, while the sun shone just as much as was necessary. Similarly, clouds poured forth showers for the mere asking during the reign of Śrī Rāma. (23)
