Kakbhushundi tells Garuda that when the blazing sun of Rama's glory rose, its light filled the three worlds; many rejoiced and many grieved. He names the grieving first. The night of ignorance ended. The owls of sin hid wherever they could, and the night lilies of lust and anger closed. The chakora birds of karma, gunas, time and nature never find joy now, and the thieves of envy, pride, delusion and arrogance have no chance anywhere. In the lake of dharma the lotuses of knowledge and realisation open in many ways, and the chakravaka birds of happiness, contentment, dispassion and discernment are free of sorrow. When this sun shines in anyone's heart, he says, the latter group grows and the former is destroyed.
जब तैं राम प्रताप खगेसा । उदित भयउ अति प्रबल दिनेसा ॥
पूरि प्रकास रहेउ तिहुँ लोका । बहुतेन्ह सुख बहुतन मन सोका ॥
jaba taiṃ rāma pratāpa khagesā | udita bhayau ati prabala dinesā ||
pūri prakāsa raheu tihum̐ lokā | bahutenha sukha bahutana mana sokā ||
जिन्हहिँ सोक ते कहउँ बखानी । प्रथम अबिद्या-निसा नसानी ॥
अघ उलूक जहँ तहाँ लुकाने । काम क्रोध कैरव सकुचाने ॥
jinhahim̐ soka te kahaum̐ bakhānī | prathama abidyā-nisā nasānī ||
agha ulūka jaham̐ tahām̐ lukāne | kāma krodha kairava sakucāne ||
बिबिध कर्म गुन काल सुभाऊ । ये चकोर सुख लहहिँ न काऊ ॥
मत्सर मान मोह मद चोरा । इन्ह कर हुनर न कवनिहुँ ओरा ॥
bibidha karma guna kāla subhāū | ye cakora sukha lahahim̐ na kāū ||
matsara māna moha mada corā | inha kara hunara na kavanihum̐ orā ||
धरम तड़ाग ज्ञान विज्ञाना । ये पङ्कज, बिकसे बिधि नाना ॥
सुख सन्तोष बिराग बिबेका । बिगत सोक ये कोक अनेका ॥
dharama tar̤āga jñāna vijñānā | ye paṅkaja, bikase bidhi nānā ||
sukha santoṣa birāga bibekā | bigata soka ye koka anekā ||
यह प्रताप रबि जाकें, उर जब करइ प्रकास ।
पछिले बाढ़हिं प्रथम जे, कहे ते पावहिं नास ॥
yaha pratāpa rabi jākeṃ, ura jaba karai prakāsa |
pachile bār̤hahiṃ prathama je, kahe te pāvahiṃ nāsa ||
