Meaning: O Ramachandra! What should we worry about? Father of Cupid! Prince of the King of Ayodhya! O Mandaara tree of devotees! All the world is a stage wherein you hold the strings with which you control and direct the activities and destinies of all with unerring dexterity. We are puppets in your hands marveling at your display. O the one worshipped by Siva!
