Kou kichhu kahai na kou kichhu

Chaupai 4, Under Doha 242 · Ayodhya Kand

Chaupai Text

कोउ किछु कहइ न कोउ किछु पूँछा। प्रेम भरा मन निज गति छूँछा॥ तेहि अवसर केवटु धीरजु धरि। जोरि पानि बिनवत प्रनामु करि॥ ४ ॥

Transliteration (IAST)

kou kichu kahai na kou kichu pūṁchā। prema bharā mana nija gati chūṁchā॥ tehi avasara kevatu dhīraju dhari। jori pāni binavata pranāmu kari॥ 4 ॥

Meaning

At that moment no one says anything, and no one asks anything. The mind is filled with love and remains empty of its own restless movement [that is, free of thought-waves and wavering]. Then Kevat (Nishadraj), with patience, folded his hands and bowed as he began to make his plea.
