On the route, the Raja was to come back, she had erected a death-pyre,
And she had gone there with new red clothes on to become a Sati(14)
(to immolate herself in case Raja was dead).
When Raja passed that way, he observed the Sati.(15)
Dohira
On Raja’s order his emissary approached the place,
And brought the news of the secret desire of the Sati.(17)
Chaupaee
Hearing this Raja was delighted and praised her vehemently,
‘I did not love her at all but she was going to sacrifice herself for me.(18)
‘I should be ashamed of myselfthat I did not acquiesce the secret.
‘Not even from the women I loved, came to wish me success.(19)
‘Now, I will marry her immediately and spend whole life wit her.
‘I will save her from immolating in the fire, rather she is already burnt in fire of love for me.’(20)
The pyre the Sati had built, he thought it to be the pyre of separation.
He circumambulated three times through all the four corners and honoured her as his Rani.(21)
After observing this incident, he relinquished all the other Ranis. And
new Rani took control over Raja as if she had bought him.(22)
Dohira
From that day on, Raja’s love was enhanced towards her.
Raja eradicated from his heart the love for all other Ranis.(23)(1)

Chaupaee
Durjan Singh was a great king; he was revered in all four directions.
His handsomeness was admired by every body and his subject was very blissful.(1)
Dohira
Who-so-ever came to his country, watched his magnanimity,
He would forget all his own home and wealth, and remain as his (the raja’s) menial.(2)
