MAMA DEVO VIGRAHAVAN DHARMAH

I know, 4Sita is 5akalanka; a model 6grihini,
And for years she was my 7sahadharmacharini
The Goddess of Chastity emulating here 8patibhakti
Confessed, "Her patibhakti is superior to my 9swasakti"

She is the breath of my life and part of my body, 
You know, our union was admired by every body, 
If causeless malignity bids its finger raise 
It gets unbent for ever; hence unqualified praise.

She is the 10ayonija and 11sauseelya bharita 
Trained by 12Rajarishi, she is 13mahimanvita charita 
And the 14pratibimba of my 15bimba, inseparable 
Emerged to converge and remain as wife incomparable.

Hear me, I am the son of 16Dasaratha, the great 17avaneesa 
Being the first son, I can't help becoming 18jagadeesa, 
Know you not, the king has no self of his own, nor entity 
He lives for 19prajahita and strives for their integrity.
