Lyrics –

Kada shabd lakshman ka sunke bhoop sabhi tharraye
(All the kings shake, listening to the assertion in Lakshman’s voice)

Farkan lagi baah Raghupati ki guru ishaara paaye
(Raghupati’s arms begin to shake with anger)

Dhanua todi tad bahaaye hain Awadh ke laalna
(Shri Ram picked up the Shiv Dhanush, broke it, and threw it away)

He Awadh ke lalna
(Oh Lord of Awadh!)

Aaj mithilapur mein aaye hain Awadh ke laalna
(Awadh’s beloved has arrived at Mithilapuri, Oh Lord)

Jaya Jayakaar machi duniya mein khushiyan sabhi manaaye
(The whole world rejoices, congratulating, reciting Lord Rama’s name)

Kahein bhawani baksh chaudhary jayamala gale pehiraaye
(Goddess Sita adorns Lord Rama with a garland; the singer recites with joy)

Sita behi ghar laaye hain Awadh ke Laalna
(Lord Rama has married and brought Goddess Sita to her new home)

He Awadh ke lalna
(Oh Lord of Awadh!)

Aaj mithilapur mein aaye hain Awadh ke laalna
(Awadh’s beloved has arrived at Mithilapuri, Oh Lord)
