Sanskrit Original
धरि कुधर खंड प्रचंड कर्कट भालु गढ़ पर डारहीं। झपटहिं चरन गहि पटकि महि भजि चलत बहुरि पचारहीं।। अति तरल तरुन प्रताप तरपहिं तमकि गढ़ चढ़ि चढ़ि गए। कपि भालु चढ़ि मंदिरन्ह जहँ तहँ राम जसु गावत भए।।
dhari kudhara khaṃḍa pracaṃḍa karkaṭa bhālu gaḍha para ḍārahīṃ. jhapaṭahiṃ carana gahi paṭaki mahi bhaji calata bahuri pacārahīṃ.. ati tarala taruna pratāpa tarapahiṃ tamaki gaḍha caḍhai caḍhai gaē. kapi bhālu caḍhai maṃdiranha jahaom tahaom rāma jasu gāvata bhaē..
The fierce monkeys and bears would lay hold of masses of rock and hurl them against the fort. Darting against their adversary they would seize him by the leg and dash him to the ground; and in the event of his taking to flight they would challenge him to a duel again. The most agile and redoubtable monkeys and bears lightly sprang and climbed up the fort and penetrating the palaces sang Sri Rama's praises wherever they pleased.
