Chaupai Text
प्रगटेउ जहँ रघुपति ससि चारू। बिस्व सुखद खल कमल तुसारू॥ दसरथ राउ सहित सब रानी। सुकृत सुमंगल मूरति मानी॥ करउँ प्रनाम करम मन बानी। करहु कृपा सुत सेवक जानी॥ जिन्हहि बिरचि बड़ भयउ बिधाता। महिमा अवधि राम पितु माता॥ ३-४ ॥
Transliteration (IAST)
pragaṭeu jahaṃ raghupati sasi cārū। bisva sukhada khala kamala tusārū॥ dasaratha rāu sahita saba rānī। sukṛta sumaṅgala mūrati mānī॥ karauṃ pranāma karama mana bānī। karahu kṛpā suta sevaka jānī॥ jinhahi biraci baḍa bhayau bidhātā। mahimā avadhi rāma pitu mātā॥ 3-4 ॥
Meaning
From there, as from the east, appeared the beautiful moon-like Rama, who gives joy to the world and is like frost to the lotus-like wicked. I bow, in thought, speech, and deed, to King Dasharatha along with all the queens, whom I regard as the embodiment of merit and auspiciousness. May they show mercy to me, knowing me as their child’s servant; by creating whom even Brahma gained greatness, and who are the limit of glory as Rama’s father and mother.
