जाके प्रिय न राम बैदेही

اشعار

1. जाके प्रिय न राम बैदेही । सो छाँड़िए कोटि बैरी सम जद्यपि परम सनेही ॥

   معنی: He who holds not Rama and Sita dear, abandon him like a million foes, though he be your most beloved kin.

2. तज्यो पिता प्रहलाद, बिभीषन बंधु, भरत महतारी । बलि गुरु तज्यो, कंत ब्रज-बनितनि, भए मुदमंगलकारी ॥

   معنی: Prahlada renounced his father, Vibhishana his brother, and Bharata his own mother; King Bali left his guru, and the women of Vraja their husbands—yet all attained blessed joy and auspicious grace.

3. नाते नेह राम के मनियत सुहृद सुसेव्य जहाँ लौं । अंजन कहा आँखि जेहि फूटै बहुतक कहौं कहाँ लौं ॥

   معنی: All kinship and affection are honored only through devotion to Rama; he alone is true friend and worthy of regard. What use is the kohl that blinds the eye? How much further can I say?

4. तुलसी सो सब भाँति परम हित पुँजी प्रान ते प्यारो । जासों होय सनेह रामपद; एतो मतो हमारो ॥

   معنی: Tulsi says, he alone is in every way a true friend and dearer than life itself, through whom love for Rama's feet is born; this alone is my belief.
