Ramrang's composition in Khamaj: Raam Lakhan Bal

This bandish describes an event from Tulsidas' Ramacharitamanas, where Parshuram challenges Lord Ram to draw Vishnu's bow (the Sharang). But while he is handing over the bow to him, the bow goes on it's own accord into Lord Ram's hands. At the point Parshuram realizes who Ram is. He then sings the praises of Ram and Lakshman and goes back into the forest. See  chaupai 1-283-4 (and 1-284-4) in http://www.shriramcharitmanas.in/p/blog-page_49.html. See http://www.ramcharitmanas.org/full-book-baal-kaanda-1.html for English translation.

The (original) words in Ramacharitamanas, as penned by Tulsidas:

??? ?????? ?? ??? ????? ?????? ???? ??? ??????? 
??? ???? ?????? ??? ???? ??????? ?? ????? ????1-283-4?
??? ?? ?? ?? ??????????? ??????? ?? ???? ?? ?????
????? ????? ???? ??????? ??? ??? ???? ?????? ??????1-284-4?

This anecdote has been retold by Pt Ramashraya Jha in his own words here:

??? ??? ?? ????? ?????? 
??? ??? ????? ???? ?????? 
?? ??? ?? ??? ??????? ????? 
??? ??? ?? ??? ?????? ??????

Translation:
To see the strength of Ram and Lakshman, the Sharang bow is given to them, so any doubts (about their strength) could be removed.
Praise be to Ram! Praise be to Lakshman! So said Bhrigupati (Parshuram). The dark-skinned ascetic bowed his head and went to the forest.
