तुम्ह सुग्रीव कूलद्रुम दोऊ। अनुज हमार भीरु अति सोऊ॥ जामवंत मंत्री अति बूढ़ा। सो कि होइ अब समरारूढ़ा॥ २ ॥

tumha sugrīva kūladruma doū। anuja hamāra bhīru ati soū॥ jāmavaṃta maṃtrī ati būṛhā। so ki hoi aba samarārūṛhā॥ 2 ॥

Meaning

You and Sugriva are like trees on the riverbank. As for my younger brother, Vibhishana, he is also very timid. The minister Jambavan is very old. How can he now be ready for battle?
