The originators of letters and meaning,
In their reverence I am so stating,

Embodiments of faith and trust symbolizing,
Within but where God be ever dwelling,
Without whom adepts not be perceiving. [2]

Lord of Poets and Monkey King representing,
They of pure intelligence be ever thriving,
With Ram and Sita in holy forest be haunting. [4]

सर्वश्रेयस्करीं सीतां नतोऽहं रामवल्लभाम् ॥ ५ ॥
To Sita, Ram's beloved, I be ever bowing,
Cause of creation and preservation being,
And the dissolution of all that be creating,
The destroyer of sorrow, source of all blessings. [5]

यन्मायावशवर्तिं विश्वमखिलं ब्रह्मादिदेवासुरा
यत्सत्वादमृषैव भाति सकलं रज्जौ यथाहेर्भ्रमः ।

वन्देऽहं तमशेषकारणपरं रामाख्यमीशं हरिम् ॥ ६ ॥
To Hari, or Ram the Supreme, I am praying,
Whose Maya over universe with Brahma swaying,
Showing light to untruth, as rope to snake being,
His lotus feet - the only boat - for birth-death crossing. [6]

I, Tulsidas, for my own delight, this I am writing,
In accordance with Purans, the Vedas am stating,
As told elsewhere and in Valmiki's Ramayan saying,
These modern lays of Raghunath I am composing. [7]

This dust - as holy ash on divine Shambhu -  beautiful, auspicious be,
Put on forehead attracts virtues - clears votarist's mind completely. 3
