Chaupai Text

राउ धीर गुन उदधि अगाधू। भा मोहि तें कछु बड़ अपराधू॥ जातें मोहि न कहत कछु राऊ। मोरि सपथ तोहि कहु सति भाऊ॥ ४ ॥

Transliteration (IAST)

rāu dhīra guna udadhi agādhū। bhā mohi teṃ kachu baṛa aparādhū॥ jāteṃ mohi na kahata kachu rāū। mori sapatha tohi kahu sati bhāū॥ 4 ॥

Meaning

For the king is indeed a great ocean of patience and virtue. Surely I have committed some grave offense, because of which the king says nothing to me. I swear by myself to you, mother: tell me the truth.
