Meaning (TK Govinda Rao’s book)

Lord of Janaki ! You are the divine Kalpaka tree of your devoees as you readily grant everyone their wishes. You are the refuge of all beings in the Cosmos.

You are delighted by music. You are of matchless beauty with the green hue of a tender leaf. You are the reservoir of compassion and of spotless conduct.

You are the Possessor of eyes like the petals of red lotus. O King ! O beautiful faced one with mirror-like cheeks ! To men who have no spark of devotion in them and who wander about intoxicated with power and arrogance like an elephant running amuck, you are the saviour.
