आरत कहहिं बिचारि न काऊ। सूझ जुआरिहि आपन दाऊ॥ सुनि मुनि बचन कहत रघुराऊ। नाथ तुम्हारेहि हाथ उपाऊ॥ १ ॥

ārata kahahiṃ bicāri na kāū। sūjha juārihi āpana dāū॥ suni muni bacana kahata raghurāū। nātha tumhārehi hātha upāū॥ 1 ॥
Meaning
People in distress do not speak after thinking carefully; a gambler sees only his own stake. Hearing the sage's words, Lord Raghunath said, 'O Lord, the means is in your own hands.'
