nirakha nirakha sakhi gagana maMDala me anuja sahita
siya raama aavata avadha vimaana chaDhe |
pavanapoota lai aayo saMdeso
bharata magana uThi aatura chale
'raamaraMga' parijana payodha janu raakaa shashi soM milana baDhe ||
Devnagri
निरख निरख सखि गगन मंडल मे अनुज सहित
सिय राम आवत अवध विमान चढे ।
पवनपूत लै आयो संदेसो
भरत मगन उठि आतुर चले
'रामरंग' परिजन पयोध जनु राका शशि सों मिलन बढे ॥
Meaning
Look, friend, in the sky! Raam with his younger brother and Sita are coming to Ayodhya riding in the air-vehicle. Pavanaputa (Hanuman, the son of Pavan, the Wind God) brought the message to Bharat who eagerly set off (to meet Raam). Ramrang says that all the subjects rush (to meet Lord Raam, their king) like the sea rises to meet the full moon (during a high tide).
