Pranavaum pratham bharat ke charna

Chaupai 2, Under Doha 17 · Bal Kand

Chaupai Text

प्रनवउँ प्रथम भरत के चरना। जासु नेम ब्रत जाइ न बरना॥ राम चरन पंकज मन जासू। लुबुध मधुप इव तजइ न पासू॥ २ ॥

Transliteration (IAST)

pranavauṃ prathama bharata ke caranā। jāsu nema brata jāi na barnā॥ rāma carana paṃkaja mana jāsū। lubudha madhupa iva taji na pāsū॥ 2 ॥

Meaning

First among the brothers, I bow to Bharata’s feet, whose vows and observances cannot be described. His mind, like a bee, remains drawn to Rama’s lotus feet and never leaves them.
