नृप सब नखत करहिँ उजिआरी । टारि न सकहिँ चाप तम भारी ॥
कमल-कोक-मधुकर-खग नाना । हरषे सकल निसा अवसाना ॥
nṛpa saba nakhata karahim̐ ujiārī | ṭāri na sakahim̐ cāpa tama bhārī ||
kamala-koka-madhukara-khaga nānā | haraṣe sakala nisā avasānā ||

What happens in this chapter
Janaka sends Shatananda for the brothers
Lakshmana goes on: the kings are like stars, giving a little light but unable to break the heavy darkness of the bow. As lotuses, bees and birds rejoice when night ends, so your devotees will rejoice when the bow breaks. Under cover of its rising, he says, the sun has shown the kings your glory and the might of your arms. Shri Rama smiles, bathes, completes his daily rites and bows at the guru's feet. Then Janaka sends Shatananda to Vishvamitra with his request, and the muni gladly calls the brothers. The Lord bows to Shatananda and sits by the guru, who says: come, dear one, Janaka has sent for us.
ऐसेहिं प्रभु सब भगत तुम्हारे । होइहहिँ टूटें धनुष सुखारे ॥
उयउ भानु बिनु स्त्रम तम नासा । दुरे नखत जग तेज प्रकासा ॥
aisehiṃ prabhu saba bhagata tumhāre | hoihahim̐ ṭūṭeṃ dhanuṣa sukhāre ||
uyau bhānu binu strama tama nāsā | dure nakhata jaga teja prakāsā ||
रबि निज उदय ब्याज रघुराया । प्रभु प्रताप सब नृपन्ह दिखाया ॥
तव-भुज-बल-महिमा उदघाटी । प्रगटी धनु विघटन परिपाटी ॥
rabi nija udaya byāja raghurāyā | prabhu pratāpa saba nṛpanha dikhāyā ||
tava-bhuja-bala-mahimā udaghāṭī | pragaṭī dhanu vighaṭana paripāṭī ||
बन्धु बचन सुनि प्रभु मुसुकाने । होइ सुचि सहज पुनीत नहाने ॥
नित्यक्रिया करि गुरु पहिँ आये । चरन-सरोज सुभग सिर नाये ॥
bandhu bacana suni prabhu musukāne | hoi suci sahaja punīta nahāne ||
nityakriyā kari guru pahim̐ āye | carana-saroja subhaga sira nāye ||
सतानन्द तब जनक बोलाये । कौसिक मुनि पहिँ तुरत पठाये ॥
जनक बिनय तिन्ह आइ सुनाई । हरषे बोलि लिये दोउ भाई ॥
satānanda taba janaka bolāye | kausika muni pahim̐ turata paṭhāye ||
janaka binaya tinha āi sunāī | haraṣe boli liye dou bhāī ||
सतानन्द पद बन्दि प्रभु, बैठे गुरु पहिँ जाइ ।
चलहु तात मुनि कहेउ तब, पठवा जनक बोलाइ ॥
satānanda pada bandi prabhu, baiṭhe guru pahim̐ jāi |
calahu tāta muni kaheu taba, paṭhavā janaka bolāi ||
