चौपाई

नारद कर मैं काह बिगारा। भवनु मोर जिन्ह बसत उजारा।। 
 अस उपदेसु उमहि जिन्ह दीन्हा। बौरे बरहि लगि तपु कीन्हा।।
 साचेहुँ उन्ह के मोह न माया। उदासीन धनु धामु न जाया।। 
 पर घर घालक लाज न भीरा। बाझँ कि जान प्रसव कैं पीरा।।
 जननिहि बिकल बिलोकि भवानी। बोली जुत बिबेक मृदु बानी।। 
 अस बिचारि सोचहि मति माता। सो न टरइ जो रचइ बिधाता।।
 करम लिखा जौ बाउर नाहू। तौ कत दोसु लगाइअ काहू।। 
 तुम्ह सन मिटहिं कि बिधि के अंका। मातु ब्यर्थ जनि लेहु कलंका।।
