निसिचर निकर मरन बिधि नाना । रघुपति रावन समर बखाना ॥
रावन बध मन्दोदरि सोका । राज बिभीषन देव असोका ॥
nisicara nikara marana bidhi nānā | raghupati rāvana samara bakhānā ||
rāvana badha mandodari sokā | rāja bibhīṣana deva asokā ||

What happens in this chapter
The katha ends, Garuda's doubt is gone
Bhushundi went on, Bhagwan Shiva tells Bhavani: the many deaths of the rakshasa hosts, the battle of Raghupati and Ravana, Ravana's fall and Mandodari's grief, Vibhishana's kingdom and the devas freed from sorrow. Then Sita and Raghupati reunited, the devas' hymns with joined hands, the Pushpaka flight to Avadh. The crow sang how Rama came home, then the coronation, the city and the many ways of royal rule. Bhushundi told the whole katha just as Shiva has told it to Uma. Hearing it, Garuda speaks with great eagerness. My doubt is gone, crown of crows; by your grace love for Rama's feet has come. Seeing the Lord bound in battle, I fell into great delusion: why should Rama, bliss itself, be in distress?
सीता रघुपति मिलन बहोरी । सुरन्ह कीन्ह अस्तुति कर जोरी ॥
पुनि पुष्पक चढ़ि कपिन्ह समेता । अवध चले प्रभु कृपा निकेता ॥
sītā raghupati milana bahorī | suranha kīnha astuti kara jorī ||
puni puṣpaka car̤hi kapinha sametā | avadha cale prabhu kṛpā niketā ||
जेहि बिधि राम नगर निज आये । बायस बिसद चरित सब गाये ॥
कहेसि बहोरि राम अभिषैका । पुर बरनत नृपनीति अनेका ॥
jehi bidhi rāma nagara nija āye | bāyasa bisada carita saba gāye ||
kahesi bahori rāma abhiṣaikā | pura baranata nṛpanīti anekā ||
कथा समस्त भुसुंडि बखानी । जो मैं तुम्ह सन कही भवानी ॥
सुनि सन रामकथा खगनाहा । कहत बचन मन परम उछाहा ॥
kathā samasta bhusuṃḍi bakhānī | jo maiṃ tumha sana kahī bhavānī ||
suni sana rāmakathā khaganāhā | kahata bacana mana parama uchāhā ||
गयउ मोर सन्देह, सुनेउँ सकल रघुपति चरित ।
भयउ राम-पद नेह, तव प्रसाद बायस-तिलक ॥
gayau mora sandeha, suneum̐ sakala raghupati carita |
bhayau rāma-pada neha, tava prasāda bāyasa-tilaka ||
मोहि भयउ अति मोह, प्रभु बन्धन रन महुँ निरखि ।
चिदानन्द सन्दोह, राम विकल कारन कवन ॥
mohi bhayau ati moha, prabhu bandhana rana mahum̐ nirakhi |
cidānanda sandoha, rāma vikala kārana kavana ||
