राम प्रानहु तें प्रान तुम्हारे। तुम्ह रघुपतिहि प्रानहु तें प्यारे॥ बिधु बिष चवै स्रवै हिमु आगी। होइ बारिचर बारि बिरागी॥ १ ॥

rāma prānahu teṃ prāna tumhāre। tumha raghupatihi prānahu teṃ pyāre॥ bidhu biṣa cavai sravai himu āgī। hoi bārichara bāri birāgī॥ 1 ॥
Meaning
Rama is dearer to you than life itself, and you are dearer to Shri Raghunath than life itself. The moon may begin to drip poison and frost may rain down fire; the creatures of the water may become detached from water,
