मुनि कहँ राम दंडवत कीन्हा । आसिरबाद बिप्रबर दीन्हा ॥
देखि राम-छबि नयन जुड़ाने । करि सनमान आश्रमहिं आने ॥
muni kaham̐ rāma daṃḍavata kīnhā | āsirabāda biprabara dīnhā ||
dekhi rāma-chabi nayana jur̤āne | kari sanamāna āśramahiṃ āne ||

What happens in this chapter
Valmiki welcomes Shri Rama as his guest
Shri Rama prostrates before the muni and receives his blessing. The sight of Shri Rama cools Valmiki's eyes; he leads his guests in with honour, has sweet roots and fruit brought, and after Sita, Lakshmana and Shri Rama have eaten, seats them well, his heart full as he gazes on the form of all auspiciousness. With folded hands Shri Rama says the muni sees all three times, the world lies in his palm like a berry. He then tells how the queen sent him to the forest, and says that his father's word, his mother's good, Bharata as king, and now the muni's darshan are all the fruit of his merit.
मुनिबर अतिथि प्रान-प्रिय पाये । कन्द मूल फल मधुर मगाए ॥
सिय-सौमित्रि-राम फल खाये । तब मुनि आसन दिये सुहाये ॥
munibara atithi prāna-priya pāye | kanda mūla phala madhura magāe ||
siya-saumitri-rāma phala khāye | taba muni āsana diye suhāye ||
बालमीकि मन आनंद भारी । मङ्गल-मूरति नयन निहारी ॥
तब कर-कमल जोरि रघुराई । बोले बचन स्त्रवन सुखदाई ॥
bālamīki mana ānaṃda bhārī | maṅgala-mūrati nayana nihārī ||
taba kara-kamala jori raghurāī | bole bacana stravana sukhadāī ||
तुम्ह त्रिकाल-दरसी मुनिनाथा । बिस्व बदर जिमि तुम्हारे हाथ ॥
अस कहि प्रभु सब कथा बखानी । जेहि जेहि भाँति दीन्ह बन रानी ॥
tumha trikāla-darasī munināthā | bisva badara jimi tumhāre hātha ||
asa kahi prabhu saba kathā bakhānī | jehi jehi bhām̐ti dīnha bana rānī ||
तात-बचन पुनि मातु-हित, भाइ भरत अस राउ ।
मो कह दरस तुम्हार प्रभु, सब मम पुन्य प्रभाउ ॥
tāta-bacana puni mātu-hita, bhāi bharata asa rāu |
mo kaha darasa tumhāra prabhu, saba mama punya prabhāu ||
