जौँ न होति सीता सुधि पाई । मधुबन के फल सकहिँ कि खाई ॥
एहि विधि मन बिचार कर राजा । आइ गए कपि सहित समाजा ॥
jaum̐ na hoti sītā sudhi pāī | madhubana ke phala sakahim̐ ki khāī ||
ehi vidhi mana bicāra kara rājā | āi gae kapi sahita samājā ||

What happens in this chapter
The monkeys reach Rama at the crystal rock
Had they not found Sita, Sugriva reasons, would they dare eat Madhuban's fruit? Then the band arrives and bows at his feet, and he embraces them lovingly. By Rama's grace the work is done, they say; Hanuman did it and saved all our lives. Sugriva embraces Hanuman again and leads them to Raghupati. Seeing them come, Rama is glad, knowing the work is done. The two brothers sit on a crystal rock, and the monkeys fall at their feet. Raghupati, heap of compassion, embraces each and asks after them. Now we are well, Lord, they say, having seen your lotus feet.
आइ सबन्हि नावा पद सीसा । मिलेउ सबन्हि अति प्रीति कपीसा ॥
पूछी कुसल कुसल पद देखी । राम कृपाँ भा काज बिसेखी ॥
āi sabanhi nāvā pada sīsā | mileu sabanhi ati prīti kapīsā ||
pūchī kusala kusala pada dekhī | rāma kṛpām̐ bhā kāja bisekhī ||
नाथ काज कीन्हेउ हनुमाना । राखे सकल कपिन्ह के प्राना ॥
सुनि सुग्रीव बहुरि तेहि मिलेऊ । कपिन्ह सहित रघुपति पहिँ चलेऊ ॥
nātha kāja kīnheu hanumānā | rākhe sakala kapinha ke prānā ||
suni sugrīva bahuri tehi mileū | kapinha sahita raghupati pahim̐ caleū ||
राम कपिन्ह जब आवत देखा । किये काज मन हरष बिसेखा ॥
फटिक सिला बैठे दोउ भाई । परे सकल कपि चरनन्हि जाई ॥
rāma kapinha jaba āvata dekhā | kiye kāja mana haraṣa bisekhā ||
phaṭika silā baiṭhe dou bhāī | pare sakala kapi carananhi jāī ||
प्रीति सहित सब भेटे, रघुपति करुना पुञ्ज ।
पूछी कुसल नाथ अब, कुसल देखि पद कंज ॥
prīti sahita saba bheṭe, raghupati karunā puñja |
pūchī kusala nātha aba, kusala dekhi pada kaṃja ||
