लालन जोग लखन लघु लोने । भे न भाइ अस अहहिँ न होने ॥
पुरजन प्रिय पितु-मातु दुलारे । सिय-रघुबरहि प्रानपिआरे ॥
lālana joga lakhana laghu lone | bhe na bhāi asa ahahim̐ na hone ||
purajana priya pitu-mātu dulāre | siya-raghubarahi prānapiāre ||

What happens in this chapter
The tender brothers now sleep on the ground
Bharata goes on. Lakshmana, young and handsome, deserves to be cherished; there never was and never will be such a brother. Beloved of the city, darling of his parents, dear as life to Sita and Raghubar, of tender form and gentle nature, on whose body even a hot wind never blew, he now bears every hardship in the forest. This breast of mine has outdone ten million thunderbolts. Rama by his birth lit up the world, an ocean of beauty, virtue and every good. His nature gives joy to citizens, kin, guru, father and mother. Ten million Sheshas could not count his virtues. He, the jewel of the Raghus, sleeps on kusha spread on the ground. Strong indeed is the way of fate.
मृदु मूरति सुकुमार सुभाऊ । तात बाउ तन लाग न काऊ ॥
ते बन सहहिँ बिपति सब भाँती । निदरे कोटि कुलिस एहिं छाती ॥
mṛdu mūrati sukumāra subhāū | tāta bāu tana lāga na kāū ||
te bana sahahim̐ bipati saba bhām̐tī | nidare koṭi kulisa ehiṃ chātī ||
राम जनमि जग कीन्ह उजागर । रूप-सील-सुख सब गुन सागर ॥
पुरजन परिजन गुरु पितु माता । राम सुभाउ सबहि सुख-दाता ॥
rāma janami jaga kīnha ujāgara | rūpa-sīla-sukha saba guna sāgara ||
purajana parijana guru pitu mātā | rāma subhāu sabahi sukha-dātā ||
बैरिउ राम बड़ाई करहीँ । बोलनि मिलनि बिनय मन हरहीॅ ॥
सादर कोटि कोटि सत सेखा । करि न सकहिँ प्रभु-गुन-गन लेखा ॥
bairiu rāma bar̤āī karahīm̐ | bolani milani binaya mana harahīॅ ||
sādara koṭi koṭi sata sekhā | kari na sakahim̐ prabhu-guna-gana lekhā ||
सुखस्वरुप रघुबंसमनि, मङ्गल-मोद-निधान ।
ते सोवत कुस डासि महि, विधि गति अति बलवान ॥
sukhasvarupa raghubaṃsamani, maṅgala-moda-nidhāna |
te sovata kusa ḍāsi mahi, vidhi gati ati balavāna ||
