Doha 68b

चौ०

निसिचर निकर मरन बिधि नाना। रघुपति रावन समर बखाना॥ रावन बध मंदोदरि सोका। राज बिभीषन देव असोका॥१॥

चौ०

सीता रघुपति मिलन बहोरी। सुरन्ह कीन्हि अस्तुति कर जोरी॥ पुनि पुष्पक चढ़ि कपिन्ह समेता। अवध चले प्रभु कृपा निकेता॥२॥

चौ०

जेहि बिधि राम नगर निज आए। बायस बिसद चरित सब गाए॥ कहेसि बहोरि राम अभिषेका। पुर बरनत नृपनीति अनेका॥३॥

चौ०

कथा समस्त भुसुंड बखानी। जो मैं तुम्ह सन कही भवानी॥ सुनि सब राम कथा खगनाहा। कहत बचन मन परम उछाहा॥४॥

Meaning

Kākabhuśuṇḍi then told about the extermination of the demon host and the various phases of the combat between Śrī Raghunātha and Rāvaṇa, Rāvaṇa’s death and Mandodarī’s lament, the enthronement of Vibhīṣaṇa, the cessation of the gods’ suffering, (1) and Sītā’s reunion with Śrī Raghunātha. He further narrated how the gods with folded hands hymned the Lord’s glories, how the All-merciful Lord then mounted the aerial car known by the name of ‘Puṣpaka’ alongwith the monkeys and flew to Ayodhyā.(2) And how Śrī Rāma arrived at His own capital, Ayodhyā, and all such magnificent events in detail. He then told of Śrī Rāma’s coronation and also described Ayodhyā and all its kingly polity. (3) In this way Kākabhuśuṇḍi narrated the whole story as I have told you, Bhavānī. When he heard the whole of Śrī Rāma’s narrative, Garuḍa’s mind was filled with rapture and he spoke as follows: (4)

सो०

गयउ मोर संदेह सुनेउँ सकल रघुपति चरित। भयउ राम पद नेह तव प्रसाद बायस तिलक॥६८ (क)॥

सो०

मोहि भयउ अति मोह प्रभु बंधन रन महुँ निरखि। चिदानंद संदोह राम बिकल कारन कवन॥६८ (ख)॥

Meaning

“My doubts have gone, now that I have heard the whole of Śrī Rāma’s episodes. And by your grace, O best of crows, I have developed devotion to Śrī Rāma’s feet. (68 A) “A mighty bewilderment seized me when I saw the Lord bound in serpants’ coil on the battle-field: Śrī Rāma is Knowledge and Bliss personified; how can He be discomfited?(68 B)
