Poetic rendition in English
[edit]Pallavi
[edit]Victory to the divine Rama, the courageous hero of the Raghu dynasty, Residing in the colored city of Rangapura.
Anupallavi
[edit]The one who enchants the heart of Janaka's daughter Sita, With his beautiful dark blue form like a peacock, He who is always surrounded by devotees.
Charanam
[edit]He who is like the moon in the ocean of the illustrious Janaka's lineage, Adorning himself with the radiance of lotus-like face, Whose feet dispel all desires, Who reclines on the serpent bed, The delight of his devotees.
His gentle eyes are like lotus petals, His soft and sweet words captivate everyone, His forehead is adorned with the divine mirror, He is the dispeller of troubles, The beloved of Govinda, Venkata, and Raman, Mukunda, Sankarshana, the root of all creation, Shankara, the spiritual teacher, and Guha Ananda.
