प्रभु तरु तर कपि डार पर ते किए आपु समान। तुलसी कहूँ न राम से साहिब सीलनिधान॥ २९ (क) ॥

Transliteration (IAST)

prabhu taru tar kapi ḍāra para te kie āpu samāna। tulasī kahūṃ na rāma se sāhiba sīlanidhāna॥ 29 (a) ॥

Meaning

The Lord (Shri Ramchandra) was beneath the tree and the monkeys were on its branches—how incomparable the Lord, the supreme and self-existing divine being, and how different the monkeys leaping on the boughs! Yet He made even such monkeys equal to Himself. Tulsi Das says that there is no master anywhere like Shri Ramchandra, the treasure of noble character.
