Sanskrit Original
अस तपु काहुँ न कीन्ह भवानी। भउ अनेक धीर मुनि ग्यानी।। अब उर धरहु ब्रह्म बर बानी। सत्य सदा संतत सुचि जानी।। आवै पिता बोलावन जबहीं। हठ परिहरि घर जाएहु तबहीं।। मिलहिं तुम्हहि जब सप्त रिषीसा। जानेहु तब प्रमान बागीसा।। सुनत गिरा बिधि गगन बखानी। पुलक गात गिरिजा हरषानी।। उमा चरित सुंदर मैं गावा। सुनहु संभु कर चरित सुहावा।। जब तें सती जाइ तनु त्यागा। तब सें सिव मन भयउ बिरागा।। जपहिं सदा रघुनायक नामा। जहँ तहँ सुनहिं राम गुन ग्रामा।।
asa tapu kāhu na kīnha bhavānī. bhau anēka dhīra muni gyānī.. aba ura dharahu brahma bara bānī. satya sadā saṃtata suci jānī.. āvai pitā bōlāvana jabahīṃ. haṭha parihari ghara jāēhu tabahīṃ.. milahiṃ tumhahi jaba sapta riṣīsā. jānēhu taba pramāna bāgīsā.. sunata girā bidhi gagana bakhānī. pulaka gāta girijā haraṣānī.. umā carita suṃdara maiṃ gāvā. sunahu saṃbhu kara carita suhāvā.. jaba tēṃ satī jāi tanu tyāgā. taba sēṃ siva mana bhayau birāgā.. japahiṃ sadā raghunāyaka nāmā. jahaom tahaom sunahiṃ rāma guna grāmā..
There have been many self-possessed and illumined sages; but not one of them, Bhavns, performed such penance as this. Now cherish in your heart this supreme utterance from heaven, knowing it to be invariably true and ever sacred. When your father comes to call you, give up all resistance and return home at once. Again, when the seven sages meet you, be assured of the veracity of this oracle. Girij (the daughter of Himavn) rejoiced to hear this utterance of Brahm echoed by heaven and a thrill ran through her limbs. [Yajnavalkya says to Bharadvja] I have thus sung the beautiful story of Um; now hear the charming account of Sambhu. Ever since Sats went and quitted her body, Sivas mind recoiled from everything. He ever repeated the name of the Lord of Raghus and heard the recitation of Sri Ramas glories here and there. (1-4)
