गयउ गरुड़ जहँ बसइ भुसुंडा । मति अकुंठ हरि भगति अखंडा ॥
देखि सैल प्रसन्न मन भयऊ । माया मोह सोच सम गयऊ ॥
gayau garur̤a jaham̐ basai bhusuṃḍā | mati akuṃṭha hari bhagati akhaṃḍā ||
dekhi saila prasanna mana bhayaū | māyā moha soca sama gayaū ||

What happens in this chapter
Garuda reaches the Blue Mountain
Garuda flies to where Bhushundi lives, whose mind is unblunted and whose Hari-bhakti is unbroken. At the sight of the mountain his heart clears, and maya, delusion and worry all fall away. After bathing in the lake he goes to the banyan. Old birds have gathered there to hear Rama's deeds, and Bhushundi is about to begin when the lord of birds arrives. Seeing him, the crow and his whole assembly rejoice. He receives Garuda with great honour, seats him and worships him. Then the crow speaks sweetly: I am fulfilled by your darshan, king of birds; command me, and tell me why you have come. Garuda replies gently: you are ever fulfilled, you whom Mahesha himself has praised with his own lips.
करि तड़ाग मज्जन जल पाना । बट तर गयउ हृदयँ हरषाना ॥
बृद्ध, बृद्ध बिहँग तहँ आये । सुनइ राम के चरित सुहाये ॥
kari tar̤āga majjana jala pānā | baṭa tara gayau hṛdayam̐ haraṣānā ||
bṛddha, bṛddha biham̐ga taham̐ āye | sunai rāma ke carita suhāye ||
कथा अरंभ करइ सोइ चाहा । तेही समय गयउ खगनाहा ॥
आवत देखि सकल खगराजा । हरषेउ बायस सहित समाजा ॥
kathā araṃbha karai soi cāhā | tehī samaya gayau khaganāhā ||
āvata dekhi sakala khagarājā | haraṣeu bāyasa sahita samājā ||
अति आदर खगपति कर कीन्हा । स्वागत पूछि सुआसन दीन्हा ॥
करि पूजा समेत अनुरागा । मधुर बचन तब बोलेउ कागा ॥
ati ādara khagapati kara kīnhā | svāgata pūchi suāsana dīnhā ||
kari pūjā sameta anurāgā | madhura bacana taba boleu kāgā ||
दो नाथ कृतारथ भयउँ मैं, तव दरसन खगराज ।
आयसु देहु सो करउँ अब, प्रभु आयहु केहि काज ॥
do nātha kṛtāratha bhayaum̐ maiṃ, tava darasana khagarāja |
āyasu dehu so karaum̐ aba, prabhu āyahu kehi kāja ||
सदा कृतारथ रूप तुम्ह, कह मृदु बचन खगेस ।
जेहि के अस्तुति सादर, निज मुख कीन्ह महेस ॥
sadā kṛtāratha rūpa tumha, kaha mṛdu bacana khagesa |
jehi ke astuti sādara, nija mukha kīnha mahesa ||
