बचन सपेम लखन पहिचाने। करत प्रनामु भरत जियँ जाने॥ बंधु सनेह सरस एहि ओरा। उत साहिब सेवा बस जोरा॥ २ ॥

bacana sapema lakhana pahichāne। karata pranāmu bharata jiyaṁ jāne॥ baṃdhu saneha sarasa ehi orā। uta sāhiba sevā basa jorā॥ 2 ॥
Meaning
Lakshmana recognized Bharat through his loving words and understood in his heart that Bharat was bowing. [He was standing facing Rama, while Bharat was behind him, so he had not seen him.] On one side was the tender love of brother Bharat, and on the other the intense subservience of Lord Rama’s service.
