Chaupai Text

कहेहु नीक मोरेहुँ मन भावा। यह अनुचित नहिं नेवत पठावा॥ दच्छ सकल निज सुता बोलाईं। हमरें बयर तुम्हउ बिसराईं॥ १ ॥

kahehu nīka morehuṃ mana bhāvā। yaha anauchait nahiṃ nevata paṭhāvā॥ daccha sakala nija sutā bolāīṃ। hamarẽ bayara tumhau bisarāīṃ॥ 1 ॥

Meaning

Shiva said, 'You have spoken well; this too pleases my heart. But it is improper that they did not send an invitation. Daksha has called all his daughters; yet because of their enmity toward us, they have forgotten you as well.'
