मामवलोकय पङ्कज-लोचन । कृपा बिलोकनि सोच बिमोचन ॥
नील तामरस स्याम काम अरि । हृदय कञ्ज मकरन्द मधुप हरि ॥
māmavalokaya paṅkaja-locana | kṛpā bilokani soca bimocana ||
nīla tāmarasa syāma kāma ari | hṛdaya kañja makaranda madhupa hari ||

Narada's hymn to the lotus-eyed Lord
Narada's song in the grove is a hymn of address. Look on me, lotus-eyed one, whose glance of grace frees from grief. Dark as the blue lotus, Hari is the bee drinking the honey of Shiva's heart. He shatters the rakshasa hosts, delights the munis and crushes sin; he is the rain cloud for the Brahmanas, the refuge of the shelterless. His arms broke the earth's burden; he slew Khara, Dushana and Viradha; he is Ravana's foe, the moon over the lilies of Dasharatha's line. Vedas and Puranas know his fame. His name churns away the dirt of Kali, and Tulsidas adds his own plea for protection. Narada then leaves for Brahma's abode, the Lord held in his heart.
जातुधान बरूथ बल भञ्जन । मुनि सज्जन रंजन अघ गञ्जन ॥
भूसुर ससि नव बृन्द बलाहक । असरन सरन दीन जन गाहक ॥
jātudhāna barūtha bala bhañjana | muni sajjana raṃjana agha gañjana ||
bhūsura sasi nava bṛnda balāhaka | asarana sarana dīna jana gāhaka ||
भुज बल बिपुल भार महि खंडित । खर दूषन बिराध बध पंडित ॥
रावनारि सुख रूप भूप बर । जय दसरथ-कुल-कुमुद सुधाकर ॥
bhuja bala bipula bhāra mahi khaṃḍita | khara dūṣana birādha badha paṃḍita ||
rāvanāri sukha rūpa bhūpa bara | jaya dasaratha-kula-kumuda sudhākara ||
सुजस पुरान बिदित निगमागम । गावत सुर मुनि सन्त-समागम ॥
कारुनीक ब्यलीक मद खंडन । सब बिधि कुसल कोसला-मंडन ॥
sujasa purāna bidita nigamāgama | gāvata sura muni santa-samāgama ||
kārunīka byalīka mada khaṃḍana | saba bidhi kusala kosalā-maṃḍana ||
कलि मल मथन नाम ममताहन । तुलसिदास प्रभु पाहि प्रनत-जन ॥
kali mala mathana nāma mamatāhana | tulasidāsa prabhu pāhi pranata-jana ||
प्रेम सहित मुनि नारद, बरनि राम-गुन-ग्राम ।
सोभासिंधु हृदयँ धरि, गये जहाँ विधि धाम ॥
prema sahita muni nārada, barani rāma-guna-grāma |
sobhāsiṃdhu hṛdayam̐ dhari, gaye jahām̐ vidhi dhāma ||
