Prabhu karunamay param bibeki

Chaupai 3, Under Doha 97 · Ayodhya Kand

Chaupai Text

प्रभु करुनामय परम बिबेकी। तनु तजि रहति छाँह किमि छेंकी॥ प्रभा जाइ कहँ भानु बिहाई। कहँ चंद्रिका चंदु तजि जाई॥ ३ ॥

Transliteration (IAST)

prabhu karuṇāmaya parama bibekī। tanu taji rahati chāṃha kimi chheṃkī॥ prabhā jāi kahaṃ bhānu bihāī। kahaṃ candrikā candu taji jāī॥ 3 ॥

Meaning

O Lord, you are compassionate and supremely wise. [Please consider:] how can a shadow remain apart once the body is gone? Where can light go, leaving the sun? And where can moonlight go, abandoning the moon?
