हरषि भरत कोसलपुर आए। समाचार सब गुरहि सुनाए।। पुनि मंदिर महँ बात जनाई। आवत नगर कुसल रघुराई।। सुनत सकल जननीं उठि धाईं। कहि प्रभु कुसल भरत समुझाई।। समाचार पुरबासिन्ह पाए। नर अरु नारि हरषि सब धाए।। दधि दुर्बा रोचन फल फूला। नव तुलसी दल मंगल मूला।। भरि भरि हेम थार भामिनी। गावत चलिं सिंधु सिंधुरगामिनी।। जे जैसेहिं तैसेहिं उटि धावहिं। बाल बृद्ध कहँ संग न लावहिं।। एक एकन्ह कहँ बूझहिं भाई। तुम्ह देखे दयाल रघुराई।। अवधपुरी प्रभु आवत जानी। भई सकल सोभा कै खानी।। बहइ सुहावन त्रिबिध समीरा। भइ सरजू अति निर्मल नीरा।।

Bharata too returned with joy to Ayodhya and broke all the news to his preceptor (the sage Vasistha). He then made it known inside the palace that the Lord of the Raghus was approaching Ayodhya safe and sound. On hearing the news all the mothers started up and ran; but Bharata eased their mind by personally telling them of the Lord's welfare. When the information reached the citizens, men and women all ran out in their joy (to meet their lord). With gold plates containing curds, Durva grass, the sacred yellow pigment known by the name of Gorocana, fruits and flowers and young leaves of the sacred Tulasi (basil) plant, the root of all blessings, ladies sallied forth with the stately gait of an elephant, singing as they went. All ran out just as they happened to be and did not take children or old folk with them. People asked one another: "Brother, did you see the gracious Lord of the Raghus?" Having come to know of the Lord's advent, the city of Ayodhya became a mine of all beauty. A delightful breeze breathed soft, cool and fragrant. The Sarayu rolled down crystal clear water

The term of Sri Rama's exile, which was the sole hope of his life, was going to expire only a day hence: the thought filled Bharata's mind with untold grief. "How is it that the Lord did not turn up? Has He cast me out of His mind, knowing me to be crooked? Ah ! How blessed and fortunate is Laksmana, who is truly devoted to Sri Rama's lotus-feet. The Lord knew me to be false and perverse; that is why He refused to take me alongwith Him. If the Lord were to consider my doings, there would be no redemption for me even after countless cycles. But the Lord never takes into account the faults of His devotees, being a friend of the humble and most tender-hearted. I have a firm conviction in my heart that Sri Rama will surely meet me; for the omens are so propitious. But, if I outlive the expiry of the time-limit, no one would be so despicable in this world as I."

At this sight Hanuman was over-joyed; every hair on his body stood erect and his eyes rained copiously. He felt gratified at heart in everyway and addressed Bharata in words that were as nectar to his ears: "He, in whose absence you sorrow day and night, the catalogue of whose virtues you are incessantly recounting the glory of Raghu's line, the delight of the virtuous and the deliverer of gods and sages, has safely arrived. Having conquered His foe in battle, with the gods to hymn His praises, the Lord is now on His way with Sita and Laksmana." The moment Bharata heard these words he forgot all his woes, like a thirsty man who has secured nectar. "Who are you, my beloved friend, and whence have you come? You have told me a most pleasing news." " Listen, O fountain of mercy: I am the son of the wind-god, a monkey; Hanuman is my name. I am a humble servant of Sri Rama (the Lord of the Raghus), the befriender of the meek." Hearing this, Bharata rose and reverently embraced him. The affection with which he embraced him was too great for his heart to contain; his eyes streamed with tears and every hair on his body stood erect. "At your very sight, O Hanuman, all my woes have disappeared. In you I have embraced today my beloved Rama Himself." Again and again he enquired after Sri Rama's health and said, "Listen, brother; what shall I give you (in return for this happy news)? I have pondered and found that there is nothing in this world to match the news you have brought. I am thus unable to repay my debt to you. Now, pray, recount to me the doings of my lord." Then Hanuman bowed his head at Bharata's feet and narrated all the meritorious deeds of Sri Rama (the Lord of the Raghus). "Tell me, Hanuman, does my gracious lord ever remember me as one of His servants?" (1-8)

Accompanied by his preceptor (the sage Vasistha) and kinsmen, his younger brother (Satrughna) and a host of Brahmanas, with a heart overflowing with affection, Bharata joyfully set forth to receive the All-merciful. Many women, who had climbed up their attics, looked above for the aerial car in the sky. And the moment they espied it they began in their joy to sing festal songs in melodious strains. Just as the sight of the full moon brings joy to the ocean and swells it, the city of Ayodhya too joyfully rushed with a tumultuous noise to meet the Lord of the Raghus, the women of the city moving to and fro like so many waves.

"Did the Jewel of Raghu's line ever remember me as His servant ?" Hanuman was thrilled with joy to hear this over-modest question of Bharata and fell at the latter's feet, saying to himself, "How can he be otherwise than humble, the holiest of the holy and an ocean of noble virtues, whose praises Sri Rama (the Hero of Raghu's line), the lord of the animate and inanimate creation, recites with His own lips?"

At the other end Sri Rama, who brought delight to the solar race as the sun to the lotus, was busy showing the charming city to the monkeys. "Listen, Sugriva (lord of the monkeys), Angada and Vibhisana (lord of Lanka), holy is this city and beautiful this land. Although all have extolled Vaikuntha (My divine Abode), which is familiar to the Vedas and the Puranas and known throughout the world, it is not so dear to Me as the city of Ayodhya: only some rare soul knows this secret. This beautiful city is My birthplace; to the north of it flows the holy Sarayu, by bathing in which men secure a home near Me without any difficulty. The dwellers here are very dear to Me; the city is not only full of bliss itself but bestows a residence in My divine Abode." The monkeys were all delighted to hear these words of the Lord and said, "Blessed indeed is Ayodhya, that has evoked praise from Sri Rama Himself !"

The term of Sri Rama's exile was to expire only the next day, which made the people of the city extremely anxious. Wasted in body through separation from Sri Rama, men and women alike were plunged in thought everywhere. Meanwhile auspicious omens of all kinds occurred and everyone felt cheerful at heart. The city itself brightened up all round, as if to announce the Lord's advent. Kausalya and the other mothers all felt inwardly happy as if someone was about to tell them that the Lord had come with Sita and Laksmana. Bharata's right eye and arm throbbed again and again. Recognizing this to be a lucky omen, he felt overjoyed at heart; but the very next moment he became thoughtful again

The Lord then mounted His aerial car and joyfully proceeded (towards His destination).

While Bharata's mind was thus sinking in the ocean of separation from Sri Rama, the son of the wind-god, disguised as a Brahmana, came like a bark to his rescue. He found Bharata seated on a mat of Kusa grass, emaciated in body, with a coil of matted hair for a crown and the words, "Rama, Rama, Raghupati" on his lips, his lotus eyes streaming with tears.
