What happens in this chapter
Sita blesses the brothers; Guha gives news
Lakshmana eagerly embraces his younger brother Shatrughna, then holds Guha to his heart. The sages bless both brothers. Bharata and Shatrughna, overflowing with love, put the dust of Sita's lotus feet on their heads. They bow again and again; she lifts them, touches their heads with her lotus hand and seats them. Sita blesses them in her heart. Seeing Sita kind in every way, Bharata is free of worry, and his groundless fear is gone. No one speaks, no one asks; hearts full of love have no movement of their own. Then Guha, taking courage, joins his palms and bows. Lord, with the great sage have come all the mothers and townsfolk, servants, commanders and ministers, all stricken by separation.
सानुज भरत उमगि अनुरागा । धरि सिर धरि सिय-पद-पदुम-परागा ॥
पुनि पुनि करत प्रनाम उठाये । सिर कर-कमल-परसि बैठाये ॥
sānuja bharata umagi anurāgā | dhari sira dhari siya-pada-paduma-parāgā ||
puni puni karata pranāma uṭhāye | sira kara-kamala-parasi baiṭhāye ||
सीयँ असीस दीन्हि मन माहीं । मगन सनेहँ देह सुधि नाहीं ॥
सब विधि सानुकूल लखि सीता । भे निसोच उर अपडर बीता ॥
sīyam̐ asīsa dīnhi mana māhīṃ | magana saneham̐ deha sudhi nāhīṃ ||
saba vidhi sānukūla lakhi sītā | bhe nisoca ura apaḍara bītā ||
कोउ किछु कहइ न कोउ किछु पूछा । प्रेम भरा मन निज-गति छूँछा ॥
तेहि अवसर केवट धीरज धरि । जोरि पानि बिनवत प्रनाम करि ॥
kou kichu kahai na kou kichu pūchā | prema bharā mana nija-gati chūm̐chā ||
tehi avasara kevaṭa dhīraja dhari | jori pāni binavata pranāma kari ||
नाथ साथ मुनिनाथ के, मातु सकल पुर लोग ।
सेवक सेनप सचिव सब, आये बिकल बियोग ॥
nātha sātha muninātha ke, mātu sakala pura loga |
sevaka senapa saciva saba, āye bikala biyoga ||
