avadha prabhāva jāna taba prānī। jaba ura basahiṃ rāmu dhanupānī॥ so kalikāla kaṭhina uragārī। pāpa parāyana saba nara nārī॥ 4 ॥

Meaning

A being knows the glory of Ayodhya only when Rama, bow in hand, dwells in the heart. O Garuda, that Kali age was indeed severe; in it all men and women were devoted to sin.
