Original · Devanagari

निसि दिन हो रट लागी रामा रामा। जबते नारद ऋषि आये सिय प्यारी को कहि समुझाये तबही ते नेक नाहिं सोहायल धामा॥ निसि दिन हो॥ विश्वामित्र संग ले आये सपने में चरित जनाये मिलबे की आसा मन नहिं बिश्रामा। युगलप्रिया की स्वामिनि बिरहिनि दुति दबि रही दामिनि नैना लागि रहै सुन्दर श्यामा॥

Fresh English translation

Day and night she repeats, 'Rama, Rama.' Since sage Narada came and told beloved Siya about him, no dwelling has pleased her. Vishvamitra leads Rama toward her; dreams disclose the coming encounter, and hope of meeting leaves her mind no rest. Yugalapriya's mistress, radiant though subdued by separation, keeps her lightning-like eyes fixed upon the beautiful dark Lord.
