Bālakāṇḍa Song 83: Behold the Two Princes

Complete song 83 of 330

देखि देखि री! दोउ राजसुवन। गौर स्याम सलोने लोने लोने, लोयननि, जिन्हकी सोभा तें सोहै सकल भुवन॥ १ ॥ इन्हहीं ताड़का मारी, मग मुनि-तिय तारी, ऋषिमख राख्यो, रन दले हैं दुवन। तुलसी प्रभुको अब जनकनगर-नभ, सुजस-बिमल-बिधु चहत उवन॥ २ ॥

Look, friend, look upon the two royal sons! Fair and dark, lovely and ever more lovely to the eyes, their beauty makes all the worlds beautiful. (1) It was they who slew Tāḍakā, delivered the sage's wife upon the road, guarded the sage's sacrifice, and crushed the wicked in battle. Tulsī says the spotless moon of the Lord's fair fame now seeks to rise in the sky of Janaka's city. (2)
