The Charans excel the Rajput in four things namely brains, education, purity of heart and religious piety.
आछा गुण कहण बाण पण आछी, मोख बुध में न को मणा ।
राजां सुजश चहुं जुग राखे, ताकव दीपक छमा तणा ।
āchā guṇa kahaṇa bāṇa paṇa āchī, mokha budha meṃ na ko maṇā ।
rājāṃ sujaśa cahuṃ juga rākhe, tākava dīpaka chamā taṇā ।
The Charans, capable of discerning distinction describe it well, and thus, spread the fame of good kings around.They are very intelligent and illuminate the Court by their presence.
भूपालां बातां हद भावे,
शब्द सवा वे घणा सकाज ।
देह दराज दीशता डारणा,
राजां बीच सोहे कवराज ।
bhūpālāṃ bātāṃ hada bhāve, śabda savā ve ghaṇā sakāja ।
deha darāja dīśatā ḍāraṇā, rājāṃ bīca sohe kavarāja ।
Kings immensely relish their conversation; their impressive physique and handsome features give these poet-kings (Charans) a regal bearing and as such they do not look out of place among Kings.
राजी सख सभा ने राखे,
सहज सभावों घणा शिरे ।
धजवड़ हथां मारका घूतां,
कव रजपूतां अमर करे ।
rājī sakha sabhā ne rākhe, sahaja sabhāvoṃ ghaṇā śire ।
dhajavaḍā hathāṃ mārakā ghūtāṃ, kava rajapūtāṃ amara kare ।
They keep the gathering in good humour and excel in good behaviour. These poets immortalise the valiant Rajputs and are themselves great warriors.
आखे मान सुणों अधपतिया, खत्रियों कोई न करजों खीज ।
वरदायक वहतां मद करण, चारण बड़ी अमोलक चीज ।
ākhe māna suṇoṃ adhapatiyā, khatriyoṃ koī na karajoṃ khīja ।
varadāyaka vahatāṃ mada karaṇa, cāraṇa baḍī amolaka cīja ।
Listen to Mann, and resent not, O! Kings, the Charans are verily invaluable.
