She loved Raja too, which enhanced Raja’s love for her.
The love of both of them was epitome of the love of (legendary) Sita and Rama.(4)
Once, Raja was enticed coming across another woman and lessened his affection for the Rani.
When Krishna Kunwar realised this, she was infuriated.(5)
Krishna Kunwar was enraged and she decided in her mind,
‘I will undertake the arduous job of killing Raja and annihilate myself.(6)
Dohira
The Rani was so much maddened in her mind,
That she cracked like glass.(7)
The Raja sent an emissary and invited that woman.
And, after shattering the ego of the Cupid, he felt blissful.(8)

When the Rani heard this, she raided the place brandishing a sword.
She first murdered her husband, Bishan Singh, and then the woman.(9)
Dohira
After killing her she cooked her meat instantly,
And sent that to the house of another Raja.(10)
Considering it genuine cooked-meat, they all devoured it,
And none ofthem could discern the mystery.(11)
Then, with the a bludgeon, she repeatedly hit (dead-body of) Raja,
And pushed him to roll down on the ground.(12)
He had been extremely under the influence of wine, when he was hit with dagger,
Now he was pushed and he was thrown down the stairs.(13)
All the ground around him was drenched in blood,
As he had been killed with a dagger.(14)
Chaupaee
(Pretending) When the woman saw the dead-body of Raja, she started to express her anguish,
And shouted, ‘What has Kaal, the god of death, done to me?’ ‘Raja has died by hitting a dagger.’(15)
When Rani, showing grief, shouted very loudly, all the people heard,
And asked, which enemy had killed the RaJa.(16)
The Rani expressed as if in a great distress, ‘Noone knows the mystery.
‘Primarily the Raja had ordered some meat, from which he ate some and, some, he distributed among the servants.’(17)
‘Then Raja sent for wine, he drank some and, some, he gave me.
