Capable for killing the ten headed one along with his sons,
And friends in a place surrounded by the sea,

Chandana ardhra bhuja madhyam,
Kunkumardhraka kucha sthalim,
Chapalankrutha hasthabhjam,
Padmalankrutha panikam. 6
(One who applies sandal on his chest,
One who decorates her breasts with saffron,
One who has a rope in his hands,
One whose hand is decorated by Lotus flower.)
Saranagatha goptharam,
Pranipada prasadhikam,
Kala megha nibhakaram,
Kaartha swara sama prabham. 7
(One who protects those who surrender,
One who is pleased with their devotion,
One who is of the colour of dark cloud,
One who shines like Gold. )
Divya simhasanaaseenam,
Divya srag vasthra bhooshanaam,
Anukshanam kadakshabhyam,
Anyonya kshana kamkshinou. 8
(One who sits on the divine throne,
One who wears divine garlands and cloth,
One who glances every second,
One who desires invitations from each other. )
Anyonya sadrusa kaarou,
Trilokya graha dampathi
Imou yuvam pranamyaham,
Bajamyadhya krutharthadham. 9
(Form resembling each other,
They are the great couple of the three worlds,
And I salute both of them,
And with gratefulness sing their praise.)
Idheeyam ramachandrasya,
Janakyascha viseshatha,
Krutha Hanumatha punya,
Sthuthi sadhyo vimukthidha. 10
(These descriptions of Ramachandra,
And also that of Janaki,
Were given by the holy Hanuman,
He who prays using it, )
Anaya sthouthi yad sthuthya,
Ramam Seetham cha bhakthitha,
Thasya thou thanutham preethou,
Sampada sakala aapi. 11
(The problems of him who prays,
Rama as well as Sita with devotion,
Would vanish and he would become dear to them,
And he will earn all sorts of wealth.)
