चौपाई

बचन सुनत सुरगुरु मुसकाने। सहसनयन बिनु लोचन जाने।। 
 मायापति सेवक सन माया। करइ त उलटि परइ सुरराया।।
 तब किछु कीन्ह राम रुख जानी। अब कुचालि करि होइहि हानी।। 
 सुनु सुरेस रघुनाथ सुभाऊ। निज अपराध रिसाहिं न काऊ।।
 जो अपराधु भगत कर करई। राम रोष पावक सो जरई।। 
 लोकहुँ बेद बिदित इतिहासा। यह महिमा जानहिं दुरबासा।।
 भरत सरिस को राम सनेही। जगु जप राम रामु जप जेही।।

दोहा/सोरठा

मनहुँ न आनिअ अमरपति रघुबर भगत अकाजु। 
 अजसु लोक परलोक दुख दिन दिन सोक समाजु।।218।।
