Sri Rama Janaki Sthuthi – Lyrics and meanings



|| Jai Sriman Narayana ||

















I shall always meditate upon supreme Lord Rama who is Mahapurusha, I shall surrender at the lotus feet of Rama who is unblemished, he showers abundance of boons, he has milky ocean as supreme abode, and he is sought after by Lord Shiva and Lord Bhrama, Oh! Mahapurusha, I am your sincere servant, kindly protect me from miseries and sorrows of  unfathomable ocean of worldly existence,  I shall meditate upon the lotus feet of Mahapurusha and I shall surrender at his lotus feet, he has abandoned the most desirable Rajyalakshmi/kingdom of Ayodhya, he sincerely followed the promise and righteousness, proceeded to the dense woods at the command of his father, he killed demon Mareecha who was disguised in the form of a golden deer, I shall meditate upon the lotus feet of Mahapurusha and I shall surrender at his lotus feet, he is highly confidential, even Veda and Vedantha are incompetent to describe his splendor, he is eternal, he is primeval deity, he is Adhimoolam which burns the mountain sized  sorrows and miseries of the worshiper, he has personified as young cowherd in the sacred land of Vrindavan and performed various pastimes, Oh! Devadeva, you are my mother and father, you are my relative and closest companion as well, you are my wisdom and wealth, and you are everything to me.  I shall prostrate before supreme Lord Sri Raghava who is beloved son of Dhasharatha, he is beyond human intellect, he is Seethapathi who is beloved consort of Goddess Seetha, he is precious gem which illuminates in the illustrious clan of Raghu, he has powerful arms and great stature, his beautiful eyes has the resemblance to lotus flower petals, he has personified as Rama in order to destroy the wicked demons on the Earth. I shall meditate upon Pundareekaksha whose eyes has the resemblance to lotus flower petals, his lotus feet are worshiped by the daughter of Kingdom of Vidheha, he is worshiped by deities, and celestial,  he symbolizes Yoga and perceivable through Yoga, he is the destroyer of three types of miseries and grief, he is worshiped by illustrious Rishis, Sages, learned and wise people, he is store house of virtues and disciplines, he has the luster of precious yellow metal and pollen of flowers. I shall prostrate before supreme Lord Anjjaneya, who is mighty monkey warrior, crossed the vast ocean  in order to remove the wild fire like sorrows of Janakaja who is the daughter of King Janaka, eventually he burnt the city of Lanka into ashes, I shall surrender to the lotus feet of Ramadhootha who is the emissary of Lord Rama, he has the resemblance to his father, he has the speed of wind, he has won over the senses, he symbolizes supreme intellect, he is most excellent son of  Lord Vayu, he is the commander of monkey warriors, I shall prostrate before Lord Maruthi who is the destroyer of wicked demon clan, his eyes overflows with the streams of tears and whose head bow down with intense devotion at the recitation of endless glories and myths of Lord Rama, I shall prostrate before  Anantharoopa, Lakshmana, Balarama and Ramanujamuni, I shall surrender to the shadow of the lotus feet of  Ramadheshika, who eradicates the root cause for the worldly existence and miseries, Hail to Yathiraja who has embodied as Phaniraja, Hail to supreme Lord Rama along with Goddess Janaki.
