Transliteration (IAST)

muni makha rākhana gayau kumārā। binu phara sara raghupati mohi mārā॥ sata jojana āyauṃ chana māhīṃ। tinha san bayaru kieṃ bhala nāhīṃ॥ 3 ॥

Meaning

That very prince went to protect Sage Vishvamitra’s sacrifice. At that time Lord Raghupati struck me with an arrow without a tip, and in a moment I was sent a hundred yojanas away. There is no good in bearing enmity toward them.
