Chhand 2, Under Doha 130 · Uttar Kand
Chhand Text
रघुबंस भूषन चरित यह नर कहहिं सुनहिं जे गावहीं। कलि मल मनोमल धोइ बिनु श्रम राम धाम सिधावहीं॥ सत पंच चौपाईं मनोहर जानि जो नर उर धरै। दारुन अबिद्या पंच जनित बिकार श्री रघुबर हरै॥ २ ॥
Transliteration (IAST)
raghubaṃsa bhūṣana carita yaha nara kahahiṃ sunahiṃ je gāvahīṃ। kali mala manomala dhoi binu śrama rāma dhāma sidhāvahīṃ॥ sata paṃca caupāīṃ manohara jāni jo nara ura dharai। dāruna abidyā paṃca janita bikāra śrī raghubara harai॥ 2 ॥
Meaning
Those who tell, hear, and sing this account of Rama, the ornament of the Raghu line, wash away the sins of Kali and the stains of the mind, and go to Rama's abode without effort. Moreover, whoever lovingly holds even five or seven beautiful couplets in the heart has the distortions born of the five kinds of ignorance removed by Lord Raghubara. In other words, if even a few couplets of the Ramayana are understood and treasured in the heart, Sri Ramachandra removes all sorrows born of ignorance.
