The barber's son disguised him
The barber’s son disguised himself and giving him his bundle made him to walk.
His mind was very happy.
He felt very happy but the Shah’s son could not understand the secret.(7)
Dohira
Walking and walking they reached the village of the in-laws.
But he did not dismount and did not let him (the Shah’s son) to mount.(8)
The Shah’s son insisted but he did not let him ride the horse.
(People) came and met assuming the barber’s son to be the Shah’s son.(9)
Chaupaee
Barber's son to the Shah
They acknowledged the Shah’s son as the barber’s son and the barber’s son as the Shah’s.
He (Shah's son) was very ashamed in his heart
He was very much ashamed but he could not say any thing to contradict.(10)
Dohira
The Shah’s son was received as the barber’s son,
And the Shah’s son was told to go and sit out side on the door step.(11)
Chaupaee
Then the barber's son said thus,
The Shah’s son asked, ‘Please do me a favour.
Give it many goats to graze.
‘Give him a few goats. He will take them out for grazing and will come back in the evening.’(12)
Dohira
Thus the Shah’s son roamed around in the jungle,
And got weaker and weaker with the shame.(13)
Chaupaee
When he saw very weak
When he saw him getting very week, the barber’s son asked,
Now give it a bed
‘Give him a bed, and every body must do what I say.’(14)
Dohira
Taking the bed Shah’s son was very much afflicted.
And every day went to the jungle to cry and wallop himself.(15)
Once (god) Shiva and (his consort) Parvatti were passing-by there.
Watching him in agony, they took pity on him.(16)
Chaupaee
Being merciful (they) said thus,
Being compassionate they said, ‘Listen, you, the distressed son of the Shah,
Whom you will say with your mouth 'you pinch',
‘Which ever the goat you would order to get stuck, that will go to sleep.(17)
Dohira
‘And whenever you would say, get up,
The goat will get up and would not be dead.’(8)
Chaupaee
When he (Shiva) said from his mouth, 'You pinch me'
Now whenever he said, get stuck, it (goat) would lie down.
When Shiva's words came true,
As Shiva’s words were coming true, he decided to play this trick.(19)
