Chaupai Text
करतल बान धनुष अति सोहा। देखत रूप चराचर मोहा॥ जिन्ह बीथिन्ह बिहरहिं सब भाई। थकित होहिं सब लोग लुगाई॥ ४ ॥
Transliteration (IAST)
karatala bāna dhanuṣa ati sohā। dekhata rūpa carācara mohā॥ jinha bīthinha biharahiṃ saba bhāī। thakita hohiṃ saba loga lugāī॥ 4 ॥
Meaning
The arrows and bow in their hands look exceedingly beautiful. At the sight of their form, all living and non-living beings are enchanted. Wherever all the brothers wander and खेल in the streets, everyone there—men and women alike—becomes spellbound and stands still.
