Sanskrit Original
मुनि प्रसाद बलि तात तुम्हारी। ईस अनेक करवरें टारी।। मख रखवारी करि दुहुँ भाई। गुरु प्रसाद सब बिद्या पाई।। मुनितय तरी लगत पग धूरी। कीरति रही भुवन भरि पूरी।। कमठ पीठि पबि कूट कठोरा। नृप समाज महुँ सिव धनु तोरा।। बिस्व बिजय जसु जानकि पाई। आए भवन ब्याहि सब भाई।। सकल अमानुष करम तुम्हारे। केवल कौसिक कृपाँ सुधारे।। आजु सुफल जग जनमु हमारा। देखि तात बिधुबदन तुम्हारा।। जे दिन गए तुम्हहि बिनु देखें। ते बिरंचि जनि पारहिं लेखें।।

"I offer myself, dear child, as a sacrifice for your sake; it was through the goodwill of the sage Visvamitra alone that God kept away a number of calamities from you. Even while you and your brother (Laksmana) guarded the sacrifice, you were initiated into all the secret lore. At the mere touch of the dust from your feet the hermit's wife (Ahalya) attained salvation and your glory filled the whole universe. In the assembly of princes you broke Siva bow, hard though it was as a tortoise-shell or adamant or rock. You gained the glory of having triumphed over the world and won the hand of Janaka's daughter, and then returned home after marrying all your brothers. All your actions have been superhuman and were accomplished only by the grace of the sage Kausika. Our birth into the world has borne fruit today as we now behold, dear child, your moon-like face. Our prayer is that the number of days that have been spent without seeing you, may not be reckoned by the Creator at all."
