Pallavi
Son of Kausalya , Our Rama with a lotus like face

Anupallavi
Worshipped by Indra and others ,
The servant of the temple of the heart of Vasishta,
And the brother of Lakshmana, Bharatha and Shatrugna.

Charanam
After protecting the fire sacrifice of sage Kaushika,
Naturally you brought to an end the curse of Ahalya,
And in the great assembly broke the bow of Lord Shiva,
And married our mother who was the daughter of the king, Oh God of Hari Kesa.
