He who annihilates the pain of the distressed, He who destroys fear in the minds 

of the fearful, He who is like the Weapon of Death to his enemies, that 

Raamachandra do I worship.

Ever ready for providing protection, wearing armour, wielding the sword, bow and arrows, those two vibrant youth always walk with me. O Raama and Lakshmana, protect me!

I bow down to the bow-wielding Raama, armed with incisive arrows, the subduer of all asuras, he who wards off all my difficulties.

I bow down to him whom I know as Raama, Raamabhadra, Raamachandra, Raghunaatha, Naatha (my overlord) and husband of Seetha.
