Shree Ram Stuti (Shree Ramchandra Kripalu)




Shri Ramachandra kripalu bhaju man haran bhavabhai darunam
Navakanja-loochana, kanjamukha, kara kanja pada kanjarunam

Kandarpa aganita amit chavi nve neel-neerada sundaram
Pata peet manahu tadita ruchi shuchi noimi janaka sutavaram

Bhaju deenbandhu dinesh danav-daitya-vansha-nikandanam
Raghunand anandakand koshalachand dasharath-nanadanam.

Sira mukuta kundala tilaka charu udaru anga vibhushanam
Aajaanubhuja shara-chaapa-dhara, sangrama-jita-khara dushanam

Iti vadati tulasidasa shankara-sesha-muni-mana-ranjanam
Mama hridai kanja-nivaasa kuru, kaamaadi khala-dala-ganjanam


Translation:
O mind, remember Rama, the Lord of compassion, who will eradicate even the most terrible dread of life; his eyes are like newly-blown lutuses set in his lotus-face; lotus-like are his hands and like ruddy lotuses his feet.
With utmost humility I do obeisance to Sita's consort, Ramacandra, whose boundless beauty excels that of myriads of Cupids (taken together). He is as winsome as the rain-laden clouds. The yellow attire on his body, beautifully and sanctified, looks as charming as the flashes of lighting.
Meditate on Rama, the delight of the house of of Raghu, root of all bliss, soothing as the moon to the Kosalas, Dasaratha's son, compassionate to the destitute, the scion of the solar race and the extirpator of the demons and diabolical daityas (giants).
He has a (resplendent) crown on his head, a pair of pendants in his ears, a lovely caste-mark on his forehead and ornaments on his lustrous body. The arms that reach the knees are holding the bow and arrows of the conqueror of Khara and Dusana (two of demonic adversaries).
Tulsidas says this: Ram, the enticer of Shiv, Shesh (Sheshnag), and saints, reside in my lotus-like-heart and destroy the evils generated by desire
