Shri Ramchandra Kripalu (Ram Stuti) — Word-by-Word Meaning

O mind, worship the compassionate Shri Ramachandra, who dispels the terrible fear of worldly existence; whose eyes are like fresh lotuses, and whose face, hands and feet glow like red lotuses. His beauty surpasses that of countless gods of love (Kamadevas), lovely as a fresh blue rain-cloud; his yellow raiment shines pure as lightning upon it. I bow to the noble bridegroom of Janaka's daughter (Sita). Worship the friend of the destitute, the very sun of splendour, destroyer of the races of demons and titans; the joy of the Raghus, the root of all bliss, the moon of Kosala, the son of Dasharatha. On his head a crown, with earrings and a graceful tilak, and noble ornaments adorning his limbs; with arms reaching to his knees, bearing arrow and bow, who vanquished Khara and Dushana in battle. Thus speaks Tulsidas: O delighter of the minds of Shankara, Shesha and the sages, make your dwelling in the lotus of my heart, O destroyer of the wicked army of lust and all the rest.
