Ayodhya Kaanda
108 - Returning to Ayodhya, Bharata enthrones the sandals and takes up his residence at Nandigrama; the virtue of listening to Bharata's story
Chhands
siya rāma prēma piyūṣa pūrana hōta janamu na bharata kō.
muni mana agama jama niyama sama dama biṣama brata ācarata kō..
dukha dāha dārida daṃbha dūṣana sujasa misa apaharata kō.
kalikāla tulasī sē saṭhanhi haṭhi rāma sanamukha karata kō..
Description
If Bharata, who brimmed over with the nectar of devotion to Sita and Sri Rama, had never been born, who would have practised the difficult vow of self-abnegation and austerity and control of the mind and senses, that transcended the imagination even of sages? Who would have dispelled the woes, burning agony, poverty, hypocrisy and other evils of the world through his fair renown; and who in this Kali age would have forcibly diverted the mind of villains like Tulasidasa towards Sri Rama?
