Then straight a mighty cry from those
Who followed Ráma’s car arose,
Who saw their monarch fainting there
Beneath that grief too great to bear.
Then “Ráma, Ráma!” with the cry
Of “Ah, his mother!” sounded high,
As all the people wept aloud
Around the ladies’ sorrowing crowd.
In plain words: The crowd following Rama's chariot sees the king faint and cries out loudly. They shout Rama's name and grieve for his mother, weeping around the sorrowing queens.
