विलक्षण॥करहुं आपका किस विधि पूजन।कुमति विलोक होत दुख भीषण॥करहुं प्रणाम कौन विधिसुमिरण।कौन भांति मैं करहु समर्पण॥सुर मुनि करत सदा सेवकाई।हर्षित रहत परम गति पाई॥दीन दुखिन पर सदा सहाई।निज जन जान लेव अपनाई॥पाप दोष संताप नशाओ।भव-बंधन से मुक्त कराओ॥सुख सम्पति दे सुख उपजाओ।निज चरनन का दास बनाओ॥निगम सदा ये विनय सुनावै।पढ़ै सुनै सो जन सुख पावै॥ In EnglishDoha: Vishnu suniye vinay sevak ki
