सकइ न बोलि बिकल नरनाहू । सोक-जनित उर दारुन दाहू ॥
नाइ सीस पद अति अनुरागा । उठि रघुबीर बिदा तब माँगा ॥
sakai na boli bikala naranāhū | soka-janita ura dāruna dāhū ||
nāi sīsa pada ati anurāgā | uṭhi raghubīra bidā taba mām̐gā ||

What happens in this chapter
Shri Rama asks his father's blessing
The king cannot speak; grief burns fiercely in his heart. Bowing his head at his father's feet with great love, Shri Rama rises and asks leave: give me your blessing and command, father; why be troubled in a time of joy? Neglecting duty out of love brings ill fame. Hearing this, the king rises in love, takes Rama by the arm and seats him. Listen, son, he says: the sages call you the lord of all that moves and is still. God weighs deeds, good and ill, and gives fruit to match; whoever acts reaps the fruit. Yet here one commits the fault and another bears its fruit. The ways of Bhagavan are strange beyond measure; who in the world can know them?
पितु असीस आयसु मोहि दीजै । हरष समय बिसमउ कत कीजै ॥
तात किये प्रिय प्रेम प्रमादू । जस जग जाइ होइ अपवादू ॥
pitu asīsa āyasu mohi dījai | haraṣa samaya bisamau kata kījai ||
tāta kiye priya prema pramādū | jasa jaga jāi hoi apavādū ||
सुनि सनेह-बस उठि नरनाहाँ । बैठारे रघुपति गहि बाहाँ ॥
सुनहु तात तुम्ह कहँ मुनि कहहीं । राम चराचर-नायक अहहीं ॥
suni saneha-basa uṭhi naranāhām̐ | baiṭhāre raghupati gahi bāhām̐ ||
sunahu tāta tumha kaham̐ muni kahahīṃ | rāma carācara-nāyaka ahahīṃ ||
सुभ अरु असुभ करम अनुहारी । ईस देइ फल हृदय बिचारी ॥
करइ जो करम पान फल सोई । निगम नीति असि कह सब कोई ॥
subha aru asubha karama anuhārī | īsa dei phala hṛdaya bicārī ||
karai jo karama pāna phala soī | nigama nīti asi kaha saba koī ||
और करइ अपराध कोउ, और पाव फल-भोगु ।
अति विचित्र भगवन्त गति, को जग जानइ जोग ॥
aura karai aparādha kou, aura pāva phala-bhogu |
ati vicitra bhagavanta gati, ko jaga jānai joga ||
