Chaupai Text
देखु गरुड़ निज हृदयँ बिचारी। मैं रघुबीर भजन अधिकारी॥ सकुनाधम सब भाँति अपावन। प्रभु मोहि कीन्ह बिदित जग पावन॥ ४ ॥
Transliteration (IAST)
dekhu garuḍa nija hṛdayaṃ bicārī। maiṃ raghubīra bhajana adhikārī॥ sakunādhama saba bhāṃti apāvana। prabhu mohi kīnha bidita jaga pāvana॥ 4 ॥
Meaning
O Garuda, consider in your own heart and see: am I fit for devotion to Rama? I am the lowest among birds and impure in every way. Yet even so, the Lord has made me renowned throughout the world as one who purifies it.
