Suni prabhu bachan laj ham marahin

Chaupai 5, Under Doha 118 · Lanka Kand

Chaupai Text

सुनि प्रभु बचन लाज हम मरहीं। मसक कहूँ खगपति हित करहीं॥ देखि राम रुख बानर रीछा। प्रेम मगन नहिं गृह कै ईछा॥ ५ ॥

Transliteration (IAST)

suni prabhu bacana lāja hama marahīṃ। masaka kahūṃ khagapati hita karahīṃ॥ dekhi rāma rukha bānara rīchā। prema magana nahiṃ gṛha kai īchā॥ 5 ॥

Meaning

Hearing such words from the Lord, we are dying of shame. Can even a mosquito ever do a favor for Garuda? Seeing Rama’s bearing, the bears and monkeys became immersed in love; they had no desire to return home.
