Chaupai Text

सुनु रावन परिहरि चतुराई। भजसि न कृपासिंधु रघुराई॥ जौं खल भएसि राम कर द्रोही। ब्रह्म रुद्र सक राखि न तोही॥ १ ॥

Transliteration (IAST)

sunu rāvana parihari caturāī। bhajasi na kṛpāsindhu raghurāī॥ jaun khala bhaesi rāma kara drohī। brahma rudra saka rākhi na tohī॥ 1 ॥

Meaning

Listen, O Ravana, and give up your cunning. Why do you not worship Raghurai, the ocean of compassion? O wicked one, if you become an enemy of Rama, even Brahma and Rudra will not be able to save you.
