dīnhi asīsa sāsu mṛdu bānī. ati sukumāri dēkhi akulānī..
 

baiṭhi namitamukha sōcati sītā. rūpa rāsi pati prēma punītā..
  [2-57-1]

calana cahata bana jīvananāthū. kēhi sukṛtī sana hōihi sāthū..
 

kī tanu prāna ki kēvala prānā. bidhi karatabu kachu jāi na jānā..
  [2-57-2]

cāru carana nakha lēkhati dharanī. nūpura mukhara madhura kabi baranī..
 

manahu prēma basa binatī karahīṃ. hamahi sīya pada jani pariharahīṃ..
  [2-57-3]

maṃju bilōcana mōcati bārī. bōlī dēkhi rāma mahatārī..
 

tāta sunahu siya ati sukumārī. sāsu sasura parijanahi piārī..
  [2-57-4]


Description

The mother-in-law blessed Her in gentle accents and felt distressed when she regarded Her most delicate frame. With Her head bent low Sita, who was beauty personified and cherished unalloyed love towards Her Lord, sat reflecting, "The lord of my life would depart to the forest; it has yet to be seen who will have the good fortune to accompany Him-my body and soul together or my soul alone. What God intends to do cannot be foreseen even partly." As She scratched the ground with the lovely nails of Her toes, Her anklets produced a musical sound, af if-so declare the poets- they lovingly prayed that Sita's feet may never abandon them. Seeing Her shed tears from Her charming eyes, Sri Rama's mother broke the silence: "Listen, my dear child: Sita is exceedingly delicate and the pet of her father-in-law and mothers-in-law and the whole family."
