Nath sath santhri suhai

Chaupai 4, Under Doha 140 · Ayodhya Kand

Chaupai Text

नाथ साथ साँथरी सुहाई। मयन सयन सय सम सुखदाई॥ लोकप होहिं बिलोकत जासू। तेहि कि मोहि सक बिषय बिलासू॥ ४ ॥

Transliteration (IAST)

nātha sātha sāṃtharī suhāī। mayana sayana saya sama sukhadāī॥ lokapa hohiṃ bilokata jāsū। tehi ki mohi saka biṣaya bilāsū॥ 4 ॥

Meaning

A pleasant bed of grass and leaves beside the Lord is as सुखदायी as hundreds of beds of Cupid. Those whose mere glance can elevate beings to the rank of guardians of the world—how could sensual pleasures ever enchant them?
