Chaupai Text
जीवन लाहु लखन भल पावा। सबु तजि राम चरन मनु लावा॥ मोर जनम रघुबर बन लागी। झूठ काह पछिताउँ अभागी॥ ४ ॥
Transliteration (IAST)
jīvana lāhu lakhana bhal pāvā। sabu taji rāma carana manu lāvā॥ mora janama raghubara bana lāgī। jhuṭha kāha pachitāũ abhāgī॥ 4 ॥
Meaning
Lakshmana has gained the best reward of life: giving up everything, he fixed his mind on Rama's feet. My birth was meant for Raghubar's exile to the forest. Being unlucky, why should I lament in vain?
