ਨਾਰਦ ਬਾਚ ॥

naarad baach |

Narada said :

ਮਾਗ ਥਕਿਯੋ ਮੁਨਿ ਭੋਜ ਨ ਦੀਆ ॥

maag thakiyo mun bhoj na deea |

ਅਧਿਕ ਰੋਸੁ ਮੁਨਿ ਬਰਿ ਤਬ ਕੀਆ ॥

adhik ros mun bar tab keea |

“The sage had been repeatedly asking for the food, but you did not give it to him.”

ਬ੍ਰਿੰਦਾ ਨਾਮ ਰਾਛਸੀ ਬਪੁ ਧਰਿ ॥

brindaa naam raachhasee bap dhar |

ਤ੍ਰੀਆ ਹੁਐ ਬਸੋ ਜਲੰਧਰ ਕੇ ਘਰਿ ॥੮॥

treea huai baso jalandhar ke ghar |8|

The sage flew into rage and said : “You will live in the house of the demon Jalandhar as wife named Varinda, after getting her body.”8.

ਦੇ ਕਰ ਸ੍ਰਾਪ ਜਾਤ ਭਯੋ ਰਿਖਿ ਬਰ ॥

de kar sraap jaat bhayo rikh bar |

ਆਵਤ ਭਯੋ ਬਿਸਨ ਤਾ ਕੇ ਘਰਿ ॥

aavat bhayo bisan taa ke ghar |

No sooner than the sage departed after cursing her, Vishnu reached his home:

ਸੁਨਤ ਸ੍ਰਾਪ ਅਤਿ ਹੀ ਦੁਖ ਪਾਯੋ ॥

sunat sraap at hee dukh paayo |

ਬਿਹਸ ਬਚਨ ਤ੍ਰੀਯ ਸੰਗਿ ਸੁਨਾਯੋ ॥੯॥

bihas bachan treey sang sunaayo |9|

Hearing about the curse, he was greatly agonised and his wife smilingly confirmed (what the sage had said).9.
