सुनि सिसु रुदन परम प्रिय बानी । सम्भ्रम चलि आई सब रानी ॥
हरषित जहँ तहँ धाईँ दासी । आनँद मगन सकल पुरबासी ॥
suni sisu rudana parama priya bānī | sambhrama cali āī saba rānī ||
haraṣita jaham̐ taham̐ dhāīm̐ dāsī | ānam̐da magana sakala purabāsī ||

What happens in this chapter
Dasharatha hears of his son's birth
Hearing the dear cry of the child, the queens hurry in, maids run about in delight and the city is lost in joy. When Dasharatha hears a son is born, it is as if he has tasted the bliss of Brahman. Thrilling with love, he steadies himself: the Lord whose name alone brings good has come to my house. He orders the music to play. Guru Vasishtha arrives with the Brahmanas and sees the matchless child, whose beauty is beyond telling. The nandimukha shraddha and the birth rites are performed, and the king gives the Brahmanas gold, cows, clothes and gems.
दसरथ पुत्र-जन्म सुनि काना । मानहुँ ब्रह्मानन्द समाना ॥
परम-प्रेम-मन पुलक-सरीरा । चाहत उठत करत मति धीरा ॥
dasaratha putra-janma suni kānā | mānahum̐ brahmānanda samānā ||
parama-prema-mana pulaka-sarīrā | cāhata uṭhata karata mati dhīrā ||
जा कर नाम सुनत सुभ होई । मोरें गृह आवा प्रभु सोई ॥
परमानन्द-पूरि-मन राजा । कहा बोलाइ बजावहु बाजा ॥
jā kara nāma sunata subha hoī | moreṃ gṛha āvā prabhu soī ||
paramānanda-pūri-mana rājā | kahā bolāi bajāvahu bājā ||
गुरु बसिष्ठ कहँ गयउ हँकारा । आये द्विजन सहित नृप-द्वारा ॥
अनुपम बालक देखेन्हि जाई । रूप-रासि गुन कहि न सिराई ॥
guru basiṣṭha kaham̐ gayau ham̐kārā | āye dvijana sahita nṛpa-dvārā ||
anupama bālaka dekhenhi jāī | rūpa-rāsi guna kahi na sirāī ||
तब नन्दीमुख-सराध करि, जातकरम सब कीन्ह ।
हाटक धेनु बसन मनि, नृप बिप्रन्ह कहँ दीन्ह ॥
taba nandīmukha-sarādha kari, jātakarama saba kīnha |
hāṭaka dhenu basana mani, nṛpa bipranha kaham̐ dīnha ||
