Jaladu janam bhari surati bisarau

Chaupai 2, Under Doha 205 · Ayodhya Kand

Chaupai Text

जलदु जनम भरि सुरति बिसारउ। जाचत जलु पबि पाहन डारउ॥ चातकु रटनि घटें घटि जाई। बढ़ें प्रेमु सब भाँति भलाई॥ २ ॥

Transliteration (IAST)

jaladu janama bhari surati bisārau। jācata jalu pabi pāhana ḍārau॥ cātaku raṭani ghaṭeṃ ghaṭi jāī। baṛheṃ premu saba bhāṃti bhalāī॥ 2 ॥

Meaning

Even if a cloud forgets the chatak all its life and, when asked for water, rains down thunderbolts and stones, if the chatak's call diminishes, its very cause is diminished. For it, only the growth of love is truly beneficial.
