kapi bhālu caḍhai maṃdiranha jahaom tahaom rāma jasu gāvata bhaē..
Description
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.
