Tajaun na tan nij ichchha marana
Chaupai 3, Under Doha 96 · Uttar Kand
Chaupai Text
तजउँ न तन निज इच्छा मरना। तन बिनु बेद भजन नहिं बरना॥ प्रथम मोहँ मोहि बहुत बिगोवा। राम बिमुख सुख कबहुँ न सोवा॥ ३ ॥
Transliteration (IAST)
tajauṃ na tana nija icchā maranā। tana binu beda bhajana nahiṃ baranā॥ prathama mohaṃ mohi bahuta bigovā। rāma bimukha sukha kabahuṃ na sovā॥ 3 ॥
Meaning
My dying is in my own will, yet I do not abandon this body, for the Vedas declare that without the body devotion cannot be practiced. At first delusion ruined me badly. Turned away from Rama, I never slept in peace.
