Ram birahan taji tanu chhanabhang

Chaupai 4, Under Doha 211 · Ayodhya Kand

Chaupai Text

राम बिरहँ तजि तनु छनभंगू। भूप सोच कर कवन प्रसंगू॥ राम लखन सिय बिनु पग पनहीं। करि मुनि बेष फिरहिं बन बनहीं॥ ४ ॥

Transliteration (IAST)

rāma birahaṃ taji tanu chana bhaṃgū। bhūpa soca kara kavana prasaṃgū॥ rāma lakhana siya bina paga panahīṃ। kari muni beṣa firahiṃ bana banahīṃ॥ 4 ॥

Meaning

Then what occasion is there for sorrow over a king who, in separation from Rama, gave up his body, which is but momentary and perishable? [The real concern is that] Rama, Lakshmana, and Sita wander from forest to forest dressed as ascetics, without shoes on their feet.
