Valmiki Ramayana CE — 2
Unshaken in resolve,
Ikshvaku’s bloodline,
Pure mind, an iron will—
Who is he? Say his name... Raam!
Broad shoulders, even limbs,
Deep chest, graceful stride,
Muscles defined and powerful.
Fine forehead, large eyes,
Strong jaw, conch-like neck,
Masculine and handsome—
Who is he? Say his name... Raam!
Dharma’s guardian, world’s protector,
Peerless archer, brilliant memory,
His presence, divine and elegant.
Devoted to the good,
Loved by all who seek the light,
As rivers seek the ocean—
Who is he? Say his name... Raam!
Ocean in spiritual depth,
Himalaya in fortitude,
Moon in radiant beauty.
Earth in forbearance,
Sage in truth and dharma,
Vishnu Himself in valor—
Who is he? Say his name... Raam!
Kaushalya’s bundle of joy,
King Dasharatha’s elder son,
The heir apparent.
Yet to exile he went...
Brother Lakshman followed,
As did his noble wife... Sita—
Who is he? Say his name... Raam!
Adventure and misadventure,
Comfort and discomfort,
They endured it all.
Forest duties done,
He returned to take the throne,
And his people rejoiced—
Who is he? Say his name... Raam!
In his Ashvamedha Yajña now,
He will give away vast wealth.
Earthly duty done,
He’ll depart for the divine realm.
And mortals... hearing his story,
Will be lifted to goodness.
