Maram bachan jab Sita bola

Chaupai 3, Under Doha 28 · Aranya Kand

Chaupai Text

मरम बचन जब सीता बोला। हरि प्रेरित लछिमन मन डोला॥ बन दिसि देव सौंपि सब काहू। चले जहाँ रावन ससि राहू॥ ३ ॥

Transliteration (IAST)

marama bacana jaba sītā bolā। hari prērita lachimana mana ḍolā॥ bana disi deva sauṃpi saba kāhū। cale jahāṃ rāvana sasi rāhū॥ 3 ॥

Meaning
