तब लगि हृदयँ बसत खल नाना । लोभ मोह मच्छर मद माना ॥
जब लगि उर न बसत रघुनाथा । धरें चाप सायक कटि भाथा ॥
taba lagi hṛdayam̐ basata khala nānā | lobha moha macchara mada mānā ||
jaba lagi ura na basata raghunāthā | dhareṃ cāpa sāyaka kaṭi bhāthā ||

What happens in this chapter
Vibhishana rejoices in his great fortune
Until Raghunath dwells in the heart with bow and quiver, says Vibhishana, a crowd of villains lives there: greed, delusion, envy, pride, vanity. The dark night of attachment, dear to the owls of liking and hatred, stays until the sun of the Lord's glory rises. Seeing your lotus feet, my heavy fears are gone; one you favour is untouched by the three pains of the world. I am a rakshasa, low by nature, who never did a good deed, yet the Lord whom munis cannot reach in meditation has joyfully embraced me. Boundless is my fortune: I have seen with my own eyes the feet that Brahma and Shiva serve.
ममता तरुन तमी अँधिआरी । राग द्वेष उलूक सुखकारी ॥
तब लगि बसति जीव मन माहीं । जब लगि प्रभु प्रताप रवि नाहीं ॥
mamatā taruna tamī am̐dhiārī | rāga dveṣa ulūka sukhakārī ||
taba lagi basati jīva mana māhīṃ | jaba lagi prabhu pratāpa ravi nāhīṃ ||
अब मैं कुसल मिटे भय भारे । देखि राम-पद-कमल तुम्हारे ॥
तुम्ह कृपाल जा पर अनुकूला । ताहि न व्याप त्रिबिधि भव सूला ॥
aba maiṃ kusala miṭe bhaya bhāre | dekhi rāma-pada-kamala tumhāre ||
tumha kṛpāla jā para anukūlā | tāhi na vyāpa tribidhi bhava sūlā ||
मैँ निसिचर अति अधम सुभाऊ । सुभ आचरन कीन्ह नहिँ काऊ ॥
जासु रूप मुनि ध्यान न आवा । तेहिं प्रभु हरषि हृदयँ मोहि लावा ॥
maim̐ nisicara ati adhama subhāū | subha ācarana kīnha nahim̐ kāū ||
jāsu rūpa muni dhyāna na āvā | tehiṃ prabhu haraṣi hṛdayam̐ mohi lāvā ||
अहोभाग्य मम अमित अति, राम कृपा सुख पुंज ।
देखेउँ नयन बिरंचि सिव, सेव्य जुगल पद कञ्ज ॥
ahobhāgya mama amita ati, rāma kṛpā sukha puṃja |
dekheum̐ nayana biraṃci siva, sevya jugala pada kañja ||
