Chapter – 110– Sri Ramacharitha Manas – Ayodhya Kanda– The villagers nearby the riverbank of Yamuna throng to meet the princes of Ayodhya

 

Rama followed by the disciples of Sage Bharadhwaja arrived on the riverbank of Yamuna, he reverentially sends off the disciple who has achieved the fruitfulness of their lives. He crossed river Yamuna and took a bath in the dark waters of the Yamuna that has a close resemblance to his limbs. The people living close to the riverbank heard the news of the arrival of handsome princes of Ayodhya, soon they left their work, and family and rushed to meet the Lord, they behold the beauty of Rama, Lakshman, and Devi Sita, and praised their fortune. Their hearts were brimming with love and devotion, but they were shy to enquire the name and details of the visitors. The wise ones recognized the supreme Bhramam personified as Rama the son of Dasaratha, further they described the virtues of Lord Sri Ramachandra who sincerely followed the command of his father and abandoned all the stately pleasures and proceeded to the woods. The people who listened to the legend of Rama were grieved and lamented “The decision of the King and the Queen are not a fair one to their children.” In the meantime, there arrived a saint who has a great effulgence, young and charming appearance. His actions were difficult to describe for the poet, he was attired in a saffron robe, lived a life of a hermit, and was a great devotee of Rama by words, actions, and thoughts.


Bidha Kiye Batu Binaya Kari Phire Payi Mana Kama | Uthari Nahaye Jamuna  Jala Jo Sareera Sama Syama ||

Sunatha Theerabasi Nara Nari | Dhaye Nija  Nija Kaja Bisari || Lakhana Rama Siya  Sundharathayi | Dhekhi Karahi Nija Bhagya Badayi || Athi Lalasa Basahi Manamahi || Nau Jau Boojjath Sakuchahi || Je Thinha Mahu Bayabiridha Sayane | Theenha Kari Juguthi Ramu Pahichane || Sakala Katha Theenha Sabahi Sunaye | Banahi Chale Pithu Aayasu Payi || Suni  Sabishadha Sakala Pacchithahi | Rani Raya Keenha  Bhala Nahi || Thehi Avasara Yek Thapasu Aava | Thejapunja Laghubayasa Suhava || Kabi Alakhitha Gathi Beshu Biragi | Mana Krama Bachana Rama Anuragi ||
