Meaning
Oh supreme Lord Rama! You fulfill the desires of devotees who prostrate you. Always protect me.
Your handsome face always shines with a lively smile. You encompass me with your compassion. You annihilate the fear of the cycle of birth and death. You are the son of Dasaratha. Your form has the beauty of rain clouds. You are praised by the celestials. Your eyes resemble the lotus petals. You destroyed the wicked in the battle. You protected the families of heroes. King of birds Garuda is your vehicle. You reside in the heart of Anjaneya. Oh, handsome Lord! You are to goddess Lakshmi, what the bee is to the thousand-petaled lotus. The beauty of your form surpasses that of Cupid. You are always mediated upon by Shiva. Kindly see that I do not fall in the trap of Cupid. Oh the son of Dasaratha! The jewel of the Raghu dynasty!
