"SHRI RAAMACHANDRA KRIPAALU BHAJU MANA HARANA
BHAVABHAYA DAARUNAN
NAVAKANJA-LOCHANA, KANJA-MUKHA, KARA-KANJA,
PADA-KAMJAARUNAN"
O mind, remember Rama, the Lord of compassion who will eradicate even the most terrible dread of life; his eyes are like newly-blown lotuses set in his lotus-face; lotus-like are his hands and like ruddy lotuses his feet.
"KANDARPA AGANITA AMITA CHABI,
NAVANIILA-NIIRADA SUNDARAN
PATA PATA MAANAHU TADITA RUCHI SUCHI NAUMI JANAKA
SUTAAVARAN"
With utmost humility I do obeisance to Sita's consort, Ramachandra, whose boundless beauty excels that of myriad of cupids (taken together). He is as winsome as the rain-laden blue clouds. The yellow attire on his body, beautiful spotless and sanctified, looks as charming as the flashes of lightening.
"BHAJU DIINABANDHU DINESHA DANAVA-DAITYA-VANSHA-NIKANDANA
RAGHUNANADANA AANANDAKANDA KOSHALACHANDA DASHRATHA
NANDANAN"
Meditate on Rama, the delight of the house of Raghu, root of all bliss, soothing as the moon to the Koshalas, Dashrath's son, compassionate to the destitute, the scion of the solar race and the extirpator of the demons and diabolic daityas (giants).
"SIRA MUKUTA KUNDALA TILAKA CHAARU UDAARU ANGA
VIBHUUSANAN
AAJAANUBHUJA SHARA-CHAAPA-DHARA,
SANGRAAMA-JITA-KHARA-DUSHANAM"
He has a (resplendent) crown on his head, a pair of pendants in hi ears, a lovely caste-mark on his forehead and ornaments on his lustrous body. The arms that reach the knees are holding the bow and arrows of the conqueror of Khara and Duushana (two of his demonic adversaries)
"ITI VADATI TULASIIDAASA SHANKARA-SHESHA-MUNI-MANI-RANJANA
MAMA HRIDAYA-KANJ-NIVASA KURU,
KAAMAADI KHALA-DALA-GANJANA"
Concluding (his festal song, the Arti), Tulsidas entreats Rama, the delight of Shiva, Serpent-King and anchorites and slayer of the troops of Lust and the like, to make his lotus-heart His abode.
