अस बिचारि सोइ करहु जो भावा। राम जननि सिख सुनि सुखु पावा॥ भूपहि बचन बानसम लागे। करहिं न प्रान पयान अभागे॥ ३ ॥

asa bicāri soi karahu jo bhāvā। rāma janani sikha suni sukhu pāvā॥ bhūpahi bacana bānasaṃ lage। karahiṃ na prāna payāna abhāge॥ 3 ॥

Think on this and do whatever pleases you. Hearing his mother's advice, Rama felt great joy. But the king found those words arrow-like. He thought, 'Why do these wretched breaths not leave me yet?'
