चौपाई

राम बचन सुनि सभय समाजू। जनु जलनिधि महुँ बिकल जहाजू।। 
 सुनि गुर गिरा सुमंगल मूला। भयउ मनहुँ मारुत अनुकुला।।
 पावन पयँ तिहुँ काल नहाहीं। जो बिलोकि अंघ ओघ नसाहीं।। 
 मंगलमूरति लोचन भरि भरि। निरखहिं हरषि दंडवत करि करि।।
 राम सैल बन देखन जाहीं। जहँ सुख सकल सकल दुख नाहीं।। 
 झरना झरिहिं सुधासम बारी। त्रिबिध तापहर त्रिबिध बयारी।।
 बिटप बेलि तृन अगनित जाती। फल प्रसून पल्लव बहु भाँती।। 
 सुंदर सिला सुखद तरु छाहीं। जाइ बरनि बन छबि केहि पाहीं।।

दोहा/सोरठा

सरनि सरोरुह जल बिहग कूजत गुंजत भृंग। 
 बैर बिगत बिहरत बिपिन मृग बिहंग बहुरंग।।249।।
