Please tell  with interest   and great joy,

The story  of Sri Rama further.

Please hear , I will tell it in short,

Many  types of problems will disappear ,

And sorrows  will also not come,

By hearing  the stories of the lotus eyed God

Rama who is the treasure house of luck,

Of Sita  who is but  Goddess Lakshmi,

 Put an end to the pride  of Lord Parasurama,

Travelled   further  and entered  the city of Ayodhya,

And entered  the  great palace  along with  his father,

His mothers , The  guru Vasishta  who  was son of Brahma,

With his brothers , with the  army,

With  Sita who was  the daughter of earth,

And along with the people who received them ,

And there  was happiness  for  the earth,

Because   they saw  the very good qualities of Rama.

The divine one , he who grants safety, the god  and  destroyer of evils of Karma,

Started telling   the essence of the story of Rama  to the goddess who was his wife,

Who  was wearing  incomparably  great corals and was the daughter of the mountain,

She was drowned in joy  and saluted the  feet of her lord,

And    he started  telling  the story   with very great devotion.

Bhoolokam appol alangaricheedinaan.

One day Rama  ,the son of king Dasaratha ,

One with lotus eye , one who looks after devotes,

One who likes auspicious gods , Raghava,

One who is saluted by Lord Shiva , Kesava,

Was in the private quarters engaged in love sports,

Along with Sita   who has an auspicious body,

And he was   black like  the blue lotus,

Had   moving eyes like leaves  of blue lotus,

Had the shine of blue sapphire,  was incomparable ,

Was pure , one who is liked  by Shiva  with blue neck,

One who is forever , one who does not have any stains,

And his body was covered with ornaments of gems,

And he was sitting  on a gem studded  throne,

And was being fanneed  by white fan  with gem studded handle,

By his  own wife , and  he had decorated  his crescent like forehead ,

By marks of sandal paste  , and whose neck ,

Was  decorated by  the shining  Kousthubha gem,

And  when  he was   spending his time chewing,

The  betel leaf  given by Sita  with moon like face ,

Narada  came  and decorated  the world ,

For the sake  of all the worlds of universe.

Mugdha  saraschandra  thulya thejassodum,

Shuddha sphatika  sangasa  sareeranai,

Sathwaram ambarthingal  ninnadharaal,

Thathraiva  vegaal avatharicheedinaan.

He  was   with the  shine of the full autumn moon,

And had a body   shining    like  a pure crustal,

And came immediately   from the sky ,

And appeared  very fast with great respect.

Sri Rama dvanum  sambhramam kaikondu,

Naradana kandu ezhunethu saadaram,

Nari maniyaya  Janaki thannodum,

Paril veenasu  namakaricheedinaan,

Padhya asana  aachamaneeya Arghya  poorvakam,

Aadhyeena  poojithanayoru Naradan,

Than niyogathil  yirunnoru  Raghaan,

Mandasmitham poondu nandichu sadaram.

Sri Rama also immediately  got up with agitation,

Seeing Narada  and immediately stood up,

And along with the gem of lady Sita,

Fel l on the floor and saluted him.,

And he provided  water to wash his feet ,

And Seat , water for drinking  and also for worship,

And  after the honourable  Narada told,

Raghava  , he  sat down  and smilingly  saluted him.

Mandam muni varan  thannodu arul cheythu,

“Vandhe  padam Karunanidhe , Saambratham,

Nana  vishaya Sangam poondu  mevina,

Manasathode  samsarikalayulla,

Manavanmaaraya jnangallku  chinthichal,

Jnani yakum   thava  Pada pangeruhum,

Pundarkothbhava  puthra , Maha  mune,

Yennude vamsavum janmavum  Rajyavum,

Yinnu Vishudhamai vannu thaponedhe.

Slowly he told   that  great sage ,

“Salutations to your feet Oh ocean of mercy,

To us who are  family people  who  are ,

With  mind embroiled in various matters,

Your  lotus like feet  , which is extremely,

Difficult to see would make us wise.

It may  be due to good deeds that I have done earlier,

That  I  got a chance   to see  you,

Oh son of the lotus born,  Oh great sage,

Oh treasure  of penance , my clan, birth,

And kingdom  has become  very clean today.

“Yennal  yini yenthu karyamennum  , punar,

Yennodu arul cheygs vensm, Dhayanidhe,

Yenthoru kaaryam niroopichu yezhunelli,

SAnthosha mul kondu arul cheykayum venam,

Mandanaaengilum  karunymundengil,

Sandehamilla sadhippippan yellame.”

Oh treasure of mercy , kindly tell me,

 What  I can do to you  now?

What reason made  you undertake this visit?

Kindly tell   this with great joy,

And though I  am a  fool,

If you have  mercy on me , I will be able to do all.”

Itham aakarnya  Raghuvaran thannodu ,

Mughdha haasaena Muni varanaakiya,

Naradanum Bhaktha vathsalanaam manu-,

Veerane nokki sarasam  arul cheythu.

Hearing  this  ,   with a  slow smile, that great sage Narada

Addressed Lord Rama  who likes   his devotees ,

And  also was a great human hero and told with love.

“Yendhinu   yenne mohippippathinnu  nee,

SAnthatham  Lokanukarikalaaya ,

Athi chathuryamulloru  vakkukal yethavum,

Madhuryathode  cholledunnathangine?

Loukeekangalaaya  vakyangal yennalum,

LOkathamanmaarkku  vendi varumallo

“Why you are putting me in deep illusion,

With   words  that imitate  the usual men,

And which are  clever and which were delivered sweetly ?

Oh Lord of Raghu clan , please  do not,

Increase  the illusion of my mind , with sweet words,

Though the words  were of  domestic nature ,

It may  be  needed  by  the great ones like you.

“Yogeswaranaya  nee, samsari jnan yennu,

Lokesa , chonnathu  sathyamathre  drudam,

“  The words  of yours   that you  are a householder,

Are really  very  true  , Oh Lord  of Yoga,

It is also true   that  the Goddess of Illusion,

Who is the cause   of  all the universe ,

Is your divine wife , Oh God who is the father of all universe,

When all the  fourteen worlds  are  your house,

Your word  that  you are  a householder is also true,

And all the different  people  are born out of your illusion.”

Since  right from Brahma to the lowly grass,

Which include all the moving and not moving beings,

Are  your children , it is only  true , when you claimed,

You are a householder and is  it not true   that ,

For  all the animals of the world  that  are seen,

Always , you are  chiefly their  father,

And is not the  Vishnu Maha maya,

Who takes   colours like such as  white , red and black,

And character  divisions like good , royal and base , your wife,

And she is the one who gives birth to all beings,

And so it is but proper  without any doubt  that you are a householder.

Oh greatly intelligent being  , you are  a householder,

Greatly interested  in son, friend , wife  and in all things,

And for the great house  of the three  worlds,

You are the one and only one householder.

You are  the Lord Brahma and Janaki is Goddess Saraswathi,

Are you not Sun god and Janaki  the light,

You are  the moon and Janaki is Rohini,

Are  you not Devendra  and Janaki is Sachi devi,

You are   the fire God and the daughter of earth is Swaha,

You  are the God of death and she is the law of punishment,

You  are the God of wind , and Janaki is the right course,

You are the Kubhera  and she is giver of wealth,

You are the king of kings and she is the earth,

Oh lad who belongs to clan of kings , Oh Lord of Raghu clan,

Oh God with lotus like eyes, Oh Rama , Oh treasure  or mercy,

Are you not Rudhra and she  Rudhrani,

You are the sacred tree  and she is the climbing plant,

Why should I tell these  in more detail,

Oh ocean of truth , valour  and good character.

 All that , all that  which is masculine ,

Oh God venerated by Vedas, all those  are you,

Oh God who attracts the mind , all that which are feminine,

And all that   is  Goddess Janaki,

Without   either of you , I do not see  or hear  any other thing ,

And Oh lord of the Universe  how  can one,

Search and serve   a thing  like that.

Mayaya  moodi maranjirikkunnoru,

Are  you not the one  who is hidden by illusion,

And are you not the one  that which should not be made clear,

And only from that  arises the great philosophies ,

And from that  arose pithy formule  to make things clear.

Oh Lord of the earth , From the total soul of the mind and body,

The entire world was  developed  and this  would also include,

Pride , the five vital airs  and the magic of sense organs ,

And then there is birth, death , pleasure  and pain,

And that which is called soul by the pure beings,

 Is that  which  is the primeval knowledge   , which cannot be described,

And some people call this  as the cause  of action,

And the  three  ways of action of  the mind , which is the root ,

Are  the reality , that  which is hidden and that  which is the cause

And all these  together   becomes specially the being ,

And Lord , you are complete , divine and separated from it.

Are  you not that lotus eyed one ,

Who is shining divinity   and the  divine soul,

Which is the reflection of the entire world,

Which exists   above all the  worlds  ,

And which is the witness for everything ,

From you  all these  worlds  were created ,

And all that  exists   , exists   within you,

And at the end all these  merge with you,

And proper thought shows that all these are your sports,

And definitely   for everything you are  the cause ,

Oh Narayana , Oh killer of Naraka   and lord of human beings.

All  beings carry the fear like feeling,

That  the  real rope is assumed to be a snake,

And once we  come to know that  we are the divine soul,

Then the sorrow of life , birth and death  come to an end,

By hearing your name and stories,

The devotion grows   in the branch of mind,

And when that  devotion  slowly  matures,

In the mind , the  knowledge of you  would arise,

And when  that devotion  becomes  fully mature,

Without any doubt , one  gets salvation,

Please count  me also as  one amongst ,

The slave  of the slave  of your devotees,

Please  do not  attract me by your illusion,

Oh Lord of universe and bless me daily.

Once upon a time from a  lotus growing out of your belly,

 My father  the Lord Brahma  took his birth,

And specially  bless me as  I am existing,

As  your grand son and your devotee,

Again and Again Narada  saluted him,

 And told   these  things  along,

With eyes  completely filled with tears of joy,

 And that sage who carries the Veena continued.

I have come here  at this time  due to,

The wishes  of Lord Brahma ,

Since you have promised that  you would kill  Ravana,

And protect the world and have taken incarnation as a man,

And as the son of Dasaratha  and though this is assured,

It seems   King Dasaratha  has decided  of  crowning you,

So that his  country would be protected

And you also would agree  for this proposal,

And later  there may not be  any time or chance,

 To kill  the ten headed  Ravana and though,

You are a truthful man   who has told ,

That  he would protect the truth,

But Brhama  has  asked me to tell you,

That    since  you have taken birth as a man,

There is a chance that  you may forget it.

Itharam  Naradan chonnathu  kettathinnu,

Hearing   that  which was related by Narada,

Sri Rama told  the following as the answer,

“ I would not break my oath at  any time,

And so do not get  sad  within your mind,

This is only   postponing  the act,

And I see  there  is a reason for that.

For completing any task  , we have to

Study the suitable  occasion   , so that task is accomplished.

Does  not God Shiva  have the form of time,

And sometimes  attempts    do fail,

And so everything has  to be done at proper time,

For otherwise  our attempt would be only an apology.

“Nale vanathinnu  pokunnathundu jnan,

“ I am going to the forest  tomorrow,

I am telling this as  an oath   at the feet of Lord Vishnu,

Afterwards   we would live  in the forest ,

In the form of sages for fourteen years,

And I would  completely eradicate ,

The clan of Rakshasa as well as  Ravana at that time,

Making     Sita  as the causal need for it ,

This is a promise that  the Rakshasa  would be killed.”

Said Sri Rama  and with mind full of joy,

That time  Narada  went round  Sri Rama,

And after taking permission from devas and sages,

Went with great  happiness to the place of devas.

Those  men who read  or  hear or even remember,

This discussion of Sage  Narada  and Sri Rama,

With devotion would get salvation without any doubt.

Suppose  you want to hear the story further ,

For removing problems,  I am going to continue telling it.
