Verse 1

श्रीरामचन्द्र कृपालु भजु मन हरण भवभय दारुणम्।नवकञ्ज लोचन कञ्ज मुख कर कञ्ज पद कञ्जारुणम्॥

Shri Ramachandra kripalu bhaju mana harana bhavabhaya daarunam.Navakanja lochana kanja mukha kara kanja pada kanjaarunam.

O my mind, revere the merciful Lord Shri Ramachandra, who removes the terrible fears of the world. His eyes are like newly blossomed lotuses, his face is like a lotus, his hands are like lotuses, and his feet are like red lotuses.

Verse 2

कन्दर्प अगणित अमित छबि नवनील नीरद सुन्दरम्।पट पीत मानहु तडित रुचि शुचि नौमि जनक सुतावरम्॥

Kandarpa aganita amita chhabi navaneela neerada sundaram.Pata peeta maanahu tadita ruchi shuchi naumi Janaka sutaavaram.

His boundless beauty outshines countless cupids (Kamadevas). He is as beautiful as a newly formed blue raincloud. His yellow robes shine like lightning. I bow to the pure Lord, the beloved husband of Sita (Janaka's daughter).
