Chhand Text
तन पुलक निर्भर प्रेम पूरन नयन मुख पंकज दिए। मन ग्यान गुन गोतीत प्रभु मैं दीख जप तप का किए॥ जप जोग धर्म समूह तें नर भगति अनुपम पावई। रघुबीर चरित पुनीत निसि दिन दास तुलसी गावई॥
Transliteration (IAST)
tana pulaka nirbhara prema pūrana nayana mukha paṃkaja die। mana gyāna guna gotīta prabhu maiṃ dīkha japa tapa kā kie॥ japa joga dharma samūha teṃ nara bhagati anupama pāvaī। raghubīra carita pūnīta nisi dina dāsa tulasī gāvaī॥
Meaning
His body is brimming with love and bristling with goosebumps, and his eyes are fixed on the lotus face of Rama. He seems to be thinking, "What chanting and austerities did I perform that I have come to see the Lord, beyond mind, knowledge, qualities, and the senses?" Through chanting, yoga, and the whole body of religious discipline, a person attains incomparable devotion. Tulsidas sings the holy deeds of Raghubir day and night.
