Chhand Text

तेहिं मध्य कोसलराज सुंदर स्याम तन सोभा लही। जनु इंद्रधनुष अनेक की बर बारि तुंग तमालही॥ प्रभु देखि हरष बिषाद उर सुर बदत जय जय जय करी। रघुबीर एकहिं तीर कोपि निमेष महुँ माया हरी॥ १ ॥

Transliteration (IAST)

tehiṃ madhya kosalarāja sundara syāma tana sobhā lahī। janu indradhanuṣa aneka kī bara bāri tuṃga tamālahī॥ prabhu dekhi haraṣa biṣāda ura sura badata jaya jaya jaya karī। raghubīra ekahiṃ tīra kopi nimiṣa mahuṃ māyā harī॥ 1 ॥

Meaning

In their midst stood Kosalaraj, the lovely dark-hued body of the Lord shining in splendor, like many rainbows forming a lofty fence around a tall tamala tree. Seeing the Lord, the gods, with hearts filled with both joy and sorrow, cried 'Victory, victory, victory!' Then Raghubira, in anger, in an instant destroyed the illusion with a single arrow.
