Bubbley marriage (1)

Baharmara ke sabse susabhya pariwar mein se ek ke kuchh yaadgaar pal.

नौमी तिथि मधु मास पुनीता। सुकल पच्छ अभिजित हरिप्रीता।।
मध्यदिवस अति सीत न घामा। पावन काल लोक बिश्रामा।।
सीतल मंद सुरभि बह बाऊ। हरषित सुर संतन मन चाऊ।।
बन कुसुमित गिरिगन मनिआरा। स्त्रवहिं सकल सरिताऽमृतधारा।।
सो अवसर बिरंचि जब जाना। चले सकल सुर साजि बिमाना।।
गगन बिमल सकुल सुर जूथा। गावहिं गुन गंधर्ब बरूथा।।
बरषहिं सुमन सुअंजलि साजी। गहगहि गगन दुंदुभी बाजी।।
अस्तुति करहिं नाग मुनि देवा। बहुबिधि लावहिं निज निज सेवा।।

It was the ninth day of the bright half of the sacred month of Caitra, the moon had entered the asterism named Abhijit, which is so dear to Sri Hari. The sun was at its meridian; the day was neither cold nor hot. It was a holy time which gave rest to the whole world. A cool, soft and fragrant breeze was blowing. The gods were feeling exhilarated and the saints were bubbling with enthusiasm. The woods were full of blossoms, the mountains were resplendent with gems and every river flowed a stream of nectar. When Brahma perceived that the time of Sri Rama’s birth had approached, all the gods came out with their aerial cars duly equipped. The bright heaven was crowded with their hosts and troops of Gandharvas chanted praises and rained down flowers placing them in their beautiful palms. The sky resounded with the beat of kettedrums. Nagas, sages and Devas offered praises and tendered their services in manifold ways.

सुर समूह बिनती करि पहुँचे निज निज धाम।
जगनिवास प्रभु प्रगटे अखिल लोक बिश्राम।।

Having offered their praises the gods returned to their several abodes, when the Lord, and abode of the universe and the solace of all creation, manifested Himself.

भए प्रगट कृपाला दीनदयाला कौसल्या हितकारी।
हरषित महतारी मुनि मन हारी अद्भुत रूप बिचारी।

The gracious Lord, who is compassionate to the lowly and the benefactor of Kausalya. appeared. The thought of His marvellous form, which stole the heart of sages, filled the mother with joy.

Happy 2080(Vikram Samvat)
