The Lord's lotus feet cannot be described; the bee-like minds of munis dwell in them. At His left side stood the Adi Shakti treasure of beauty and root of the world, from a portion of whom arise countless Lakshmis, Umas and Brahmanis and by the play of whose brow the world comes to be. She is Sita, at Shri Rama's left. Beholding Hari's form, an ocean of beauty, Manu and Shatarupa gazed without blinking, never sated. Overcome with joy, they forgot their bodies and fell like sticks, clasping His feet. The Lord, a mass of compassion, touched their heads with His lotus hands and raised them. Pleased, He said: know Me to be most pleased; ask whatever boon your heart desires.
पद-राजीव बरनि नहि जाहीँ । मुनि मन मधुप बसहिँ जिन्ह माहीं ॥
बाम भाग सोभति अनुकूला । आदि सक्ति छबि-निधि जग-मूला ॥
pada-rājīva barani nahi jāhīm̐ | muni mana madhupa basahim̐ jinha māhīṃ ||
bāma bhāga sobhati anukūlā | ādi sakti chabi-nidhi jaga-mūlā ||
जासु अंस उपजहिँ गुन खानी । अगनित लच्छि उमा ब्रह्मानी ॥
भृकुटि बिलास जासु जग होई । राम बाम-दिसि सीता सोई ॥
jāsu aṃsa upajahim̐ guna khānī | aganita lacchi umā brahmānī ||
bhṛkuṭi bilāsa jāsu jaga hoī | rāma bāma-disi sītā soī ||
छवि-समुद्र हरि रूप बिलोकी । एक टक रहे नयन पट रोकी ॥
चितवहिँ सादर रूप अनूपा । तृप्ति न मानहिँ मनु सतरूपा ॥
chavi-samudra hari rūpa bilokī | eka ṭaka rahe nayana paṭa rokī ||
citavahim̐ sādara rūpa anūpā | tṛpti na mānahim̐ manu satarūpā ||
हरष-बिबस तनु दसा भुलानी । परे दंड इव गहि पद पानी ॥
सिर परसे प्रभु निज-कर-कञ्जा । तुरत उठाये करुना-पुञ्जा ॥
haraṣa-bibasa tanu dasā bhulānī | pare daṃḍa iva gahi pada pānī ||
sira parase prabhu nija-kara-kañjā | turata uṭhāye karunā-puñjā ||
बोले कृपा-निधान पुनि, अति प्रसन्न मोहि जानि ।
माँगहु बर जोइ भाव मन, महादानि अनुमानि ॥
bole kṛpā-nidhāna puni, ati prasanna mohi jāni |
mām̐gahu bara joi bhāva mana, mahādāni anumāni ||
