Meaning

Oh, Rama!  You are the ultimate limit of excellence, and delight of our heart, the lord of Sita.
Your face is like the moon and is dark like therein cloud.  Your garment is golden your conquer of enemies and the delight of all the worlds.
Your feet are worshiped by Devas like Indra, kindly reside in my heart always. Your gait is captivating like that of an elephant.  Your ornaments of gold shine brilliantly.  You destroy the pride of the wicked.  You remove the sorrow of Samsara and your eyes brim with mercy.
YOu are surrounded by a crowd of monkeys.  Oh, Lord!  look after my well-being.  You wear a garland of jewels of nine gems.  Your form destroys the pride of clouds.  You enable us to cross the ocean of Samsara.  You are extremely beautiful.
Oh, a friend of the afflicted!  Save me.  you are the destroyer of Ravana.  You are the wish-yielding tree Kalpataru to those who surrender to you.  Oh, Varijanabha!  Your abode is in the hearts of Rishis.  Your forehead is marked by Kasturi Tilaka.  You are the recipient of the graceful glances of Sita.
