यह सुधि कोल किरातन्ह पाई । हरषे जनु नव-निधि घर आई ॥
कन्द मूल फल भरि भरि दोना । चले रङ्क जनु लूटन सोना ॥
yaha sudhi kola kirātanha pāī | haraṣe janu nava-nidhi ghara āī ||
kanda mūla phala bhari bhari donā | cale raṅka janu lūṭana sonā ||

Chapter 135: The Kols and Kiratas bring their gifts
5 verses · 135 of 326
What happens in this chapter
The Kols and Kiratas bring their gifts
When the Kols and Kiratas hear the news, they are as glad as if the nine treasures had come home. Filling leaf cups with roots and fruit, they set out like paupers running to loot gold. Those who had already seen the brothers are questioned by the rest on the way. Reaching Shri Rama, they lay their gifts before him and gaze in great love, standing like figures in a painting, bodies thrilling, eyes streaming. Seeing them lost in love, Shri Rama honours them with kind words. Bowing again and again, they say with folded hands that seeing his feet they have found a master; his coming is their good fortune.
तिन्ह महँ जिन्ह देखे दोउ भ्राता । अपर तिन्हहिँ पूँछहि मगु जाता ॥
कहत सुनत रघुबीर निकाई । आइ सबन्हि देखे रघुराई ॥
tinha maham̐ jinha dekhe dou bhrātā | apara tinhahim̐ pūm̐chahi magu jātā ||
kahata sunata raghubīra nikāī | āi sabanhi dekhe raghurāī ||
करहिँ जोहार भेँट धरि आगे । प्रभुहि बिलोकहिँ अति अनुरागे ॥
चित्र लिखे जनु जहँ तहँ ठाढ़े । पुलक-सरीर नयन जल बाढ़े ॥
karahim̐ johāra bhem̐ṭa dhari āge | prabhuhi bilokahim̐ ati anurāge ||
citra likhe janu jaham̐ taham̐ ṭhār̤he | pulaka-sarīra nayana jala bār̤he ||
राम सनेह मगन सब जाने । कहि प्रिय बचन सकल सनमाने ॥
प्रभुहि जोहारि बहोरि बहोरी । बचन बिनीत कहहिं कर जोरी ॥
rāma saneha magana saba jāne | kahi priya bacana sakala sanamāne ||
prabhuhi johāri bahori bahorī | bacana binīta kahahiṃ kara jorī ||
अब हम नाथ सनाथ सब, भये देखि प्रभु पाय ।
भाग हमारे आगमन, राउर कोसलराय ॥
aba hama nātha sanātha saba, bhaye dekhi prabhu pāya |
bhāga hamāre āgamana, rāura kosalarāya ||
