इन्ह कै दसा न कहेउँ बखानी। सदा काम के चेरे जानी॥ सिद्ध बिरक्त महामुनि जोगी। तेपि कामबस भए बियोगी॥ ४ ॥

Transliteration (IAST)

inha kai dasā na kaheuṃ bakhānī। sadā kāma ke cere jānī॥ siddha birakta mahāmuni jogī। tepi kāmabasa bhae biyogī॥ 4 ॥

Meaning

I will not recount their condition, for they are always regarded as servants of desire. Even perfected beings, renunciates, great sages, and yogis became separated and helpless under the sway of desire.
