समाप्ति दोहा
Five concluding dohas record the contemplative setting, composition, and dates of completion.
श्रीजानकीकिसोरी व्याह दिन उत्सव साज समाज। विपुल सन्त भाविक वहाँ बह्यो पूर्ण रस राज॥१॥
On the wedding day of Śrī Jānakīkiśorī, the festive assembly was adorned. Many saints and devotees gathered there, and the sovereign fullness of rasa flowed among them.
श्रीगङ्गा तट सरस थल लहि निकुंज अस्थान। छपरा पुरुष निकुंज में सोइ समाज की ध्यान॥२॥
On the bank of Śrī Gaṅgā he found a delightful place and established a secluded grove. In that inner bower at Chhaprā he meditated upon the very same divine assembly.
मनत करत आश्चर्य सुख भयो स्वप्न अद्भुत। नवल भक्त माला रच्यों सकल सुमङ्गल मूल॥३॥
As he continued this inward contemplation, wondrous joy arose in an extraordinary dream. He composed this new garland of devotees, a root of every auspicious blessing.
सम्बत अठारह बिरहद मकर मास गत पाँच। दिवस मनोहर छयानवे प्रगट नवल जस साँच॥४॥
The verse records its date in Vikrama Saṃvat eighteen hundred and ninety-six, on the fifth day in the month of Makara: on that beautiful day this new and truthful sacred praise appeared.
माघसित अठानवे नौमी विमल विलास। नवलकिसोरी जन्म दिन पूरन रसिक प्रकाश॥५॥
On the bright ninth of Māgha in Saṃvat eighteen hundred and ninety-eight, the birthday of Navalakiśorī, the Rasika Prakāśa attained its fullness in stainless delight.
