Chaupai Text

मैं बन दीखि राम प्रभुताई। अति भय बिकल न तुम्हहि सुनाई॥ तदपि मलिन मन बोधु न आवा। सो फलु भली भाँति हम पावा॥ २ ॥

Transliteration (IAST)

maiṃ bana dīkhi rāma prabhutāī। ati bhaya vikala na tumhahiṃ sunāī॥ tadapi malina mana bodhu na āvā। so phalu bhalī bhāṃti hama pāvā॥ 2 ॥

Meaning

In a previous birth, I saw Rama’s majesty in the forest, but being अत्यंत भयभीत, I did not tell you. Even so, my impure mind did not awaken. I have indeed received the full result of that in the proper way.
