Chirajivi muni gyaan bikal janu

Chaupai 4, Under Doha 286 · Ayodhya Kand

Chaupai Text

चिरजीवी मुनि ग्यान बिकल जनु। बूड़त लहेउ बाल अवलंबनु॥ मोह मगन मति नहिं बिदेह की। महिमा सिय रघुबर सनेह की॥ ४ ॥

Transliteration (IAST)

cirajīvī muni gyāna bikala janu। būḍata laheu bāla avalaṃbanu॥ mōha magana mati nahiṃ bideha kī। mahimā siya raghubara saneha kī॥ 4 ॥

Meaning

Janaka's wisdom, like the sage Chiranjeevi, seemed to be drowning in distress, but was saved by the support of that child of Rama's love. In truth, the intellect of the lord of Videha is not lost in delusion; this is the glory of Sita and Rama's love, which even overwhelmed the knowledge of so great a scholar.
