Dhawal dham upar nabh chumbat

Chaupai 4, Under Doha 27 · Uttar Kand

Chaupai Text

धवल धाम ऊपर नभ चुंबत। कलस मनहुँ रबि ससि दुति निंदत॥ बहु मनि रचित झरोखा भ्राजहिं। गृह गृह प्रति मनि दीप बिराजहिं॥ ४ ॥

Transliteration (IAST)

dhavala dhāma ūpara nabha cuṃbhata। kalasa manahuṃ rabi sasi duti niṃdata॥ bahu mani racita jharokhā bhrājahiṃ। gṛha gṛha prati mani dīpa birājahiṃ॥ 4 ॥

Meaning

The white mansions seem to kiss the sky above. The pitchers on their roofs seem to shame the radiance of the sun and moon. Many gem-studded windows shine, and jeweled lamps adorn every house.
