बामदेव-रघुकुल गुरु ज्ञानी । बहुरि गाधि-सुत कथा बखानी ॥
सुनि सुनि सुजस मनहिँ मन राऊ । बरनत आपन पुन्य प्रभाऊ ॥
bāmadeva-raghukula guru jñānī | bahuri gādhi-suta kathā bakhānī ||
suni suni sujasa manahim̐ mana rāū | baranata āpana punya prabhāū ||

What happens in this chapter
Ayodhya settles in joy; Bala Kanda closes
Vamadeva and Vasishtha, the wise guru of the Raghus, tell again of Vishvamitra's deeds, and the king inwardly marvels at his own good fortune. Everywhere people sing of Rama's wedding, and its pure fame fills the three worlds. From the day Rama came home wed, every joy settled in Avadh. Tulsidas says he told a little of it to purify his own speech, for the glory of Rama and Sita is the life of poets; who has crossed the shoreless sea of Raghubir's deeds? Those who lovingly sing or hear of the sacred thread and wedding of Sita and Raghubir will always know joy, for Rama's glory is the home of all good. Here Bala Kanda ends.
बहुरे लोग रजायसु भयऊ । सुतन्ह समेत नृपति गृहँ गयऊ ॥
जहँ तहँ राम ब्याह सब गावा । सुजस पुनीत लोक तिहुँ छावा ॥
bahure loga rajāyasu bhayaū | sutanha sameta nṛpati gṛham̐ gayaū ||
jaham̐ taham̐ rāma byāha saba gāvā | sujasa punīta loka tihum̐ chāvā ||
आये ब्याहि राम घर जन तें । बसे अनन्द अवध सब तब तें ॥
प्रभु बिबाहँ जस भयउ उछाहू । सकहिँ न बरनि गिरा अहिनाहू ॥
āye byāhi rāma ghara jana teṃ | base ananda avadha saba taba teṃ ||
prabhu bibāham̐ jasa bhayau uchāhū | sakahim̐ na barani girā ahināhū ||
कबि-कुल-जीवन पावन जानी । राम-सीय-जस मंगल-खानी ॥
तेहि तैं मैं कछु कहा बखानी । करन पुनीत हेतु निज बानी ॥
kabi-kula-jīvana pāvana jānī | rāma-sīya-jasa maṃgala-khānī ||
tehi taiṃ maiṃ kachu kahā bakhānī | karana punīta hetu nija bānī ||
निज गिरा पावनि करन कारन, राम-जस तुलसी कह्यो ।
रघुबीर चरित अपार बारिधि, पार कबि कौनें लह्यो ॥
उपबीत ब्याह उछाह मङ्गल, सुनि जे सादर गावहीँ ।
वैदेहि राम-प्रसाद तें जन, सर्बदा सुख पावहीं ॥
nija girā pāvani karana kārana, rāma-jasa tulasī kahyo |
raghubīra carita apāra bāridhi, pāra kabi kauneṃ lahyo ||
upabīta byāha uchāha maṅgala, suni je sādara gāvahīm̐ |
vaidehi rāma-prasāda teṃ jana, sarbadā sukha pāvahīṃ ||
सिय रघुबीर बिबाह, जे सप्रेम गावहिँ सुनहिँ ।
तिन्ह कहँ सदा उछाह, मङ्गलायतन राम जस ॥
siya raghubīra bibāha, je saprema gāvahim̐ sunahim̐ |
tinha kaham̐ sadā uchāha, maṅgalāyatana rāma jasa ||
