भरतहि देखि मातु उठि धाई। मुरुछित अवनि परी झइँ आई।। देखत भरतु बिकल भए भारी। परे चरन तन दसा बिसारी।। मातु तात कहँ देहि देखाई। कहँ सिय रामु लखनु दोउ भाई।। कैकइ कत जनमी जग माझा। जौं जनमि त भइ काहे न बाँझा।। कुल कलंकु जेहिं जनमेउ मोही। अपजस भाजन प्रियजन द्रोही।। को तिभुवन मोहि सरिस अभागी। गति असि तोरि मातु जेहि लागी।। पितु सुरपुर बन रघुबर केतू। मैं केवल सब अनरथ हेतु।। धिग मोहि भयउँ बेनु बन आगी। दुसह दाह दुख दूषन भागी।।
bharatahi dēkhi mātu uṭhi dhāī. muruchita avani parī jhaiom āī.. dēkhata bharatu bikala bhaē bhārī. parē carana tana dasā bisārī.. mātu tāta kahaom dēhi dēkhāī. kahaom siya rāmu lakhanu dōu bhāī.. kaikai kata janamī jaga mājhā. jauṃ janami ta bhai kāhē na bāomjhā.. kula kalaṃku jēhiṃ janamēu mōhī. apajasa bhājana priyajana drōhī.. kō tibhuvana mōhi sarisa abhāgī. gati asi tōri mātu jēhi lāgī.. pitu surapura bana raghubara kētū. maiṃ kēvala saba anaratha hētu.. dhiga mōhi bhayau bēnu bana āgī. dusaha dāha dukha dūṣana bhāgī..
When mother Kausalya saw Bharata, she sprang up and ran to meet him; but she felt giddy and dropped unconscious on the ground. Bharata was deeply moved to see her plight and threw himself at her feet forgetting the condition of his own body. "Mother, show me my father. Where is Sita and the two brothers, Sri Rama and Laksmana? Why was Kaikeyi born into this world at all? And if born, why did she not remain barren instead of bearing me, a blot on my family, a very sink of infamy and an enemy of near and dear ones? Who in the three spheres is so wretched as I, on whose account, mother, you have been reduced to such a plight. My father is in heaven and Sri Rama, the Chief of Raghu's line, is in the woods; it is I who like a shooting star am responsible for the whole trouble. Woe be to me, who have proved to be for my family a very fire among the bamboos and a victim of terrible agony, suffering and censure."

सरल सुभाय मायँ हियँ लाए। अति हित मनहुँ राम फिरि आए।। भेंटेउ बहुरि लखन लघु भाई। सोकु सनेहु न हृदयँ समाई।। देखि सुभाउ कहत सबु कोई। राम मातु अस काहे न होई।। माताँ भरतु गोद बैठारे। आँसु पौंछि मृदु बचन उचारे।। अजहुँ बच्छ बलि धीरज धरहू। कुसमउ समुझि सोक परिहरहू।। जनि मानहु हियँ हानि गलानी। काल करम गति अघटित जानि।। काहुहि दोसु देहु जनि ताता। भा मोहि सब बिधि बाम बिधाता।। जो एतेहुँ दुख मोहि जिआवा। अजहुँ को जानइ का तेहि भावा।।

Guileless by nature, mother Kausalya pressed him to her bosom with utmost affection as though Sri Rama Himself had come back. She then embraced Laksmana's younger brother (Satrughna); her heart was too full with grief and love. Everyone who saw her loving disposition said, "Rama's mother that she is, no wonder she should be so loving." The mother seated Bharata in her lap and wiping away his tears spoke to him in soothing words: "I adjure you, my child, to compose yourself even now; knowing this to be an unpropitious time sorrow no more. Take not to heart the loss we have sustained and feel no remorse for it, remembering that the course of time and fate is unalterable. Do not blame anyone, my son; it is Providence that has turned hostile to me in everyway. And when He makes me survive even under such trying circumstances, who knows what may be His pleasure with regard to me even now?"

बेचहिं बेदु धरमु दुहि लेहीं। पिसुन पराय पाप कहि देहीं।। कपटी कुटिल कलहप्रिय क्रोधी। बेद बिदूषक बिस्व बिरोधी।। लोभी लंपट लोलुपचारा। जे ताकहिं परधनु परदारा।। पावौं मैं तिन्ह के गति घोरा। जौं जननी यहु संमत मोरा।। जे नहिं साधुसंग अनुरागे। परमारथ पथ बिमुख अभागे।। जे न भजहिं हरि नरतनु पाई। जिन्हहि न हरि हर सुजसु सोहाई।। तजि श्रुतिपंथु बाम पथ चलहीं। बंचक बिरचि बेष जगु छलहीं।। तिन्ह कै गति मोहि संकर देऊ। जननी जौं यहु जानौं भेऊ।।

"If, mother, all this has my approval, let me share the terrible fate of those who sell the Vedas, exploit their piety, are given to backbiting and expose others' sins, who are deceitful, wicked, quarrelsome and irascible, who revile the Vedas and are hostile to the world, nay, who are greedy and lecherous and behave as the repacious do, and who cast their eyes on others' wealth and others' wife. Nay, mother, if I ever knew this secret, may Lord Siva allot me the fate of those wretches who love not the company of the virtuous, who have rejected the path leading to God-Realization, who worship not Sri Hari even though blessed with a human form, and take no delight in the glory of Sri Hari and Lord Siva, who have abandoned the path of the Vedas and follow the contrary way, and who are impostors and deceive the world by assuming false appearances."

बिलपहिं बिकल भरत दोउ भाई। कौसल्याँ लिए हृदयँ लगाई।। भाँति अनेक भरतु समुझाए। कहि बिबेकमय बचन सुनाए।। भरतहुँ मातु सकल समुझाईं। कहि पुरान श्रुति कथा सुहाईं।। छल बिहीन सुचि सरल सुबानी। बोले भरत जोरि जुग पानी।। जे अघ मातु पिता सुत मारें। गाइ गोठ महिसुर पुर जारें।। जे अघ तिय बालक बध कीन्हें। मीत महीपति माहुर दीन्हें।। जे पातक उपपातक अहहीं। करम बचन मन भव कबि कहहीं।। ते पातक मोहि होहुँ बिधाता। जौं यहु होइ मोर मत माता।।

Much agitated, the two brothers, Bharata and Satrughna, loudly lamented and Kausalya clasped them to her bosom. She comforted Bharata in many ways and tendered words of wisdom to him. Bharata too in his turn consoled all his mothers, narrating legends from the Puranas and Vedas. Joining both his palms he addressed them in guileless, innocent, simple and charming words: "The sins attaching to the murder of one's mother, father or son and to the act of setting fire to a cowpen or a village of Brahmanas, and those incurred by slaying a woman or child and by administering poison to a friend or a monarch, nay, all the major and minor sins of thought, word or deed, that have been enumerated by the seers,-let all such sins be mine if, my mother, this plot has my concurrence."

मुख प्रसन्न मन रंग न रोषू। सब कर सब बिधि करि परितोषू।। चले बिपिन सुनि सिय सँग लागी। रहइ न राम चरन अनुरागी।। सुनतहिं लखनु चले उठि साथा। रहहिं न जतन किए रघुनाथा।। तब रघुपति सबही सिरु नाई। चले संग सिय अरु लघु भाई।। रामु लखनु सिय बनहि सिधाए। गइउँ न संग न प्रान पठाए।। यहु सबु भा इन्ह आँखिन्ह आगें। तउ न तजा तनु जीव अभागें।। मोहि न लाज निज नेहु निहारी। राम सरिस सुत मैं महतारी।। जिऐ मरै भल भूपति जाना। मोर हृदय सत कुलिस समाना।।

With a cheerful countenance, and without either joy or anger, he comforted all in everyway and proceeded to the forest. Hearing this Sita followed him and would not stay, devoted as she was to Rama's feet. Laksmana also, when he heard this, sprang up and accompanied them; he would not be left behind even though the Lord of Raghus tried his best to detain hi m. The Lord of Raghus then bowed his head to all and departed with Sita and his younger brother (Laksmana). So Rama, Laksmana and Sita left for the woods, whereas I neither accompanied them nor sent my soul after them (leaving my body here). All this happened before these eyes and yet this wretched soul did not take leave of the body. I am not ashamed of my love; to think that a son like Rama should have a mother like me! The king knew well how to live and how to die; whereas my heart is a hundred times harder than adamant."

राम प्रानहु तें प्रान तुम्हारे। तुम्ह रघुपतिहि प्रानहु तें प्यारे।। बिधु बिष चवै स्त्रवै हिमु आगी। होइ बारिचर बारि बिरागी।। भएँ ग्यानु बरु मिटै न मोहू। तुम्ह रामहि प्रतिकूल न होहू।। मत तुम्हार यहु जो जग कहहीं। सो सपनेहुँ सुख सुगति न लहहीं।। अस कहि मातु भरतु हियँ लाए। थन पय स्त्रवहिं नयन जल छाए।। करत बिलाप बहुत यहि भाँती। बैठेहिं बीति गइ सब राती।। बामदेउ बसिष्ठ तब आए। सचिव महाजन सकल बोलाए।। मुनि बहु भाँति भरत उपदेसे। कहि परमारथ बचन सुदेसे।।

"Rama is dearer to you than your own life, and likewise you are dearer to the Lord of Raghus than his own life. The moon may diffuse poison (through her rays) and snow emit fire; nay, an aquatic creature may shun water and spiritual enlightenment may fail to eradicate error; but in no case will you turn hostile to Rama. Those in this world who allege this plot was contrived with your connivance shall never attain happiness or salvation even in a dream." So saying mother Kausalya clasped Bharata to her bosom; milk began to flow from her breasts and her eyes filled with tears. In this way they squatted away the whole night lamenting in profusion. The sages Vamadeva and Vasistha then came and summoned all the ministers and the elite of the city. Vasistha admonished Bharata in many ways speaking to him words of wisdom appropriate to the occasion
