## Original text

काहै झगरिनि मैं बड़भागिनि निरख्यौ है नंदजूको लाल । जाकौ दरस देव नहीं पावै मैं पायौ है इहि काल ॥१॥ यह औसरेमें कैसे पायौ कौन पुन्य कहो कैसे जायौ। प्रभुकी कृपा बिना कछु पावत लैहों अब अपनों मन भायौ ॥२॥ जातिन छोटी करमनि मोटी देव निकट कोऊ बैठ न पायौ ॥ मैं अपने हाथन करि लीनों नाल छेदनकों मोहि बुलायौ ॥३॥ अपनों जनम सुफल करि  मानत दुर्लभ दर्शन सुलभ पायौ । सगुनदास तिन सब कछु पायौ जिहि पारस ते लोह मिटायौ ॥४॥
