चौपाई

करहि जाइ तपु सैलकुमारी। नारद कहा सो सत्य बिचारी।। 
 मातु पितहि पुनि यह मत भावा। तपु सुखप्रद दुख दोष नसावा।।
 तपबल रचइ प्रपंच बिधाता। तपबल बिष्नु सकल जग त्राता।। 
 तपबल संभु करहिं संघारा। तपबल सेषु धरइ महिभारा।।
 तप अधार सब सृष्टि भवानी। करहि जाइ तपु अस जियँ जानी।। 
 सुनत बचन बिसमित महतारी। सपन सुनायउ गिरिहि हँकारी।।
 मातु पितुहि बहुबिधि समुझाई। चलीं उमा तप हित हरषाई।। 
 प्रिय परिवार पिता अरु माता। भए बिकल मुख आव न बाता।।

दोहा/सोरठा

बेदसिरा मुनि आइ तब सबहि कहा समुझाइ।। 
 पारबती महिमा सुनत रहे प्रबोधहि पाइ।।73।।
