| "O
Rama! worshipped by the obedient Hanuma, | O Rama! granting wishes to the faithful Sugriva, | O Rama! killing the proud Vali, | O Rama! sending the Monkey-chief on an errand, | O Rama! accompanied by the pleasant Lakshmana, | Salutations to you!" | | "O Rama! always remembering Hanuman, | O Rama! removing all the impediments, | O Rama! the source for the life of Sita, | O Rama! blaming the ten-headed Ravana, | O Rama! praising the righteous Hanuma, | O Rama! arising out of Sita the Kakavana, | O Rama! identifying the jewel on Sita's head, | O Rama! listening to the comforting words of Hanumanta, | Salutaions to you!" |
