3 wives of Dashrath : Kaushalya from Kaushalraj. Kaikey from Kaikeydesh...don't know the exact story but I guess she saved Dashrath and then he fell in love with her. Don't know much about Sumitra.

as far as I know.......sumitra was given to him as a gift.........because her father was a King, and Dasarath made him happy by doing something, so he offered her hand for marriage as his gift, sort of like a way to say thank you....

I dunno the details though.....this is just what i've heard....

Yes, but I can answer your other question about the title song:

Line 1: Dasgribh Dashanan Dashkandar
Dasgribh = Ten necked Dasanan = Ten Heads Dashkandar = Strength of ten people

Line 2: Main Ravan main hi lankeshwar
I am Ravan, the King of Lanka

Hi Aradhana,
What you have written is mentioned in Adhyatm Ramayan and also in Tulsidas Ramacharitmanas.
