Mantra
Devanagari:
दक्षिणे लक्ष्मणो यस्य वामे तु जनकात्मजा
पुरतो मारुतिर्यस्य तं वन्दे रघुनन्दनम्
लोकाभिरामं रणरङ्गधीरं राजीवनेत्रं रघुवंशनाथम्
कारुण्यरूपं करुणाकरं तं श्रीरामचन्द्रं शरणं प्रपद्ये
Transliteration:
Dakshine Lakshmano Yasya Vame Tu Janakatmaja
Purato Marutiryasya Tam Vande Raghunandanam
Lokabhiramam Ranarangadhiram Rajivanetram Raghuvamshanatham
Karunyarupam Karunakaram Tam Shriramachandram Sharanam Prapadye
Translation:
On whose right stands Lakshmana and on whose left stands Sita, daughter of Janaka,
And before whom kneels Hanuman—I bow to that joy of the Raghus;
Delighter of the worlds, resolute hero in battle, lotus-eyed Lord of the Raghu lineage,
Embodiment and fountain of compassion—I take refuge in Sri Ramachandra.
