Chhand Text

बैठारि आसन आरती करि निरखि बरु सुखु पावहीं। मनि बसन भूषन भूरि वारहिं नारि मंगल गावहीं॥ ब्रह्मादि सुरबर बिप्र बेष बनाइ कौतुक देखहीं। अवलोकि रघुकुलकमल रबिछबिसुफल जीवन लेखहीं॥

Transliteration (IAST)

baiṭhāri āsana āratī kari nirakhi baru sukhu pāvahīṃ। mani basana bhūṣana bhūri vārahiṃ nāri maṃgala gāvahīṃ॥ brahmādi surabara bipra beṣa banāi kautuka dekhahīṃ। avaloki raghukulakamala rabichabi suphala jīvana lekhahīṃ॥
