सुनत सुधा सम बचन राम के । गहे सबनि पद कृपा-धाम के ॥
जननि जनक गुरु बन्धु हमारे । कृपा निधान प्रान ते प्यारे ॥
sunata sudhā sama bacana rāma ke | gahe sabani pada kṛpā-dhāma ke ||
janani janaka guru bandhu hamāre | kṛpā nidhāna prāna te pyāre ||

What happens in this chapter
The citizens fall at Rama's feet
The words of Shri Rama fall on the citizens like nectar, and they clasp his feet. You are our mother and father, guru and brother, they say, dearer than life. Body, wealth and home, you alone do us good. No one else would give such teaching; even parents have their own interest at heart. In every age you and your servants help the world without motive, while everyone else is a friend for gain. Hearing words so soaked in love, Rama rejoices, and with his leave they go home retelling the talk. Bhagwan Shiva tells Uma that the people of Avadh are fulfilled, for Brahman, pure being, awareness and bliss, rules as their king.
तन धन धाम राम हितकारी । सब विधि तुम्ह प्रनतारति हारी ॥
अस सिख तुम्ह बिनु देइ न कोऊ । मातु पिता स्वारथ रत ओऊ ॥
tana dhana dhāma rāma hitakārī | saba vidhi tumha pranatārati hārī ||
asa sikha tumha binu dei na koū | mātu pitā svāratha rata oū ||
हेतु रहित जग जुग उपकारी । तुम्ह तुम्हार सेवक असुरारी ॥
स्वारथ मीत सकल जग माहीं । सपनेहुँ प्रभु परमारथ नाहीं ॥
hetu rahita jaga juga upakārī | tumha tumhāra sevaka asurārī ||
svāratha mīta sakala jaga māhīṃ | sapanehum̐ prabhu paramāratha nāhīṃ ||
सब के बचन प्रेम रस साने । सुनि रघुनाथ हृदयँ हरषाने ॥
निज निज गृह गये आयसु पाई । बरनत प्रभु बतकही सुहाई ॥
saba ke bacana prema rasa sāne | suni raghunātha hṛdayam̐ haraṣāne ||
nija nija gṛha gaye āyasu pāī | baranata prabhu batakahī suhāī ||
उमा अवधवासी नर, नारि कृतारथ रूप ।
ब्रह्म सच्चिदानन्द घन, रघुनायक जहँ भूप ॥
umā avadhavāsī nara, nāri kṛtāratha rūpa |
brahma saccidānanda ghana, raghunāyaka jaham̐ bhūpa ||
