चौपाई

कौसल्या धरि धीरजु कहई। पूत पथ्य गुर आयसु अहई।। 
 सो आदरिअ करिअ हित मानी। तजिअ बिषादु काल गति जानी।।
 बन रघुपति सुरपति नरनाहू। तुम्ह एहि भाँति तात कदराहू।। 
 परिजन प्रजा सचिव सब अंबा। तुम्हही सुत सब कहँ अवलंबा।।
 लखि बिधि बाम कालु कठिनाई। धीरजु धरहु मातु बलि जाई।। 
 सिर धरि गुर आयसु अनुसरहू। प्रजा पालि परिजन दुखु हरहू।।
 गुर के बचन सचिव अभिनंदनु। सुने भरत हिय हित जनु चंदनु।। 
 सुनी बहोरि मातु मृदु बानी। सील सनेह सरल रस सानी।।
