रघुबंसिन्ह महुँ जहँ कोउ होई। तेहिं समाज अस कहइ न कोई॥ कही जनक जसि अनुचित बानी। बिद्यमान रघुकुलमनि जानी॥ १ ॥

raghubaṃsinha mahūṃ jaham̐ kou hoī। tehiṃ samāja asa kahai na koī॥ kahī janaka jasi anucita bānī। bidyamāna raghukulamani jānī॥ 1 ॥

Meaning

Wherever there is even one among the Raghu line, no one in such an assembly would speak words like these. Knowing Shri Ram, the jewel of the Raghu clan, to be present, Janaka still spoke such improper words.
