Meaning:
Please make me a slave of your lotus like feet,
As I am singing your praise Oh lad of Raghu clan, Oh ocean of mercy,
Who is being praised in the pretty banks of the ocean of milk,
By Brahma, Shiva, Indra, Maruths, Rudra, and groups of saints,
Who is partial in protecting good people, who is greater than the greatest,
Who has appeared in this world to reduce the burden of this earth,
As a pretty slightly black human being, though he is full of wisdom.
Padma dalyatha lochana, hey Raghu vamsa vibhooshana deva dayalo,
Nirmala neeradha neela thano, akhila loka hrudambhuja bhasa ka bhano,
Komala Gathra, pavithra paadabhja rajakana pavitha Gowthama kanthaa,
Thwaam bhajatho Raghu nandana dehi dayanagha, may swa padambhuja dasyam. ॥ 2 ॥

Oh God, who is like Sun helping the entire world open like lotus,
Oh Pretty God and Oh God who made Ahalya pure by the holy dust of his feet.
Poorna, Parathpara, Palaya maam, athi dheenamanaha manantha sukhabdhe,

Oh God, who wears the yellow silk shining like a streak of lightning in the rainy season,
Oh, Rama, Oh God who removed the pride of the God of love by the shine of his face,
Oh God, who wears Golden ornaments and Oh God with gem-studded crown, my salutations.
Divya sara sch sasi kanthi harojjwala moukthika malya visala sumoule,
Kotira viprabha, charu charithra pavithra vichithra, Dhanu sara pane,

Oh God who does several pretty acts of Dharma,
And oh Valorous God who killed the very powerful and strong Ravana.
Dosha vihimsra bhujanga sahasra sukopa mahanala keela kalape,
Janma jara maranormmi mama mano madha manmadha nakra vichakri bhavabdhou,

Please make me a slave of your lotus like feet,
As I am singing your praise Oh lad of Raghu clan, Oh ocean of mercy,
And save me from the ocean of cruel serpents which are nothing but my faults,
From the flame of the great fire, in the tide of birth, growth and death,
From the ocean of the crowd of crocodiles called mental pride and fatigue,
And from the collection of sorrows where I have fallen for some time, Oh Rama.
Samsyathi ghora madoth kada kunjara thyatshudha neeradha pinditha thundam,
Dandakaron madhitham cha rajas thama unmadha moha padodh jaditha vvaartha,

Oh, Rama please save me who is a fool but surrendered to you,
As I am the source of satisfying the hunger of the rutted elephant,
Which is the domestic life and being grinded by the feet of God of death,
And have lost my health due to the madness created by regal and base qualities,
And as I am oppressed, does not have any other go.
Janma sarjitha papa samanwitha hruth kamala, pathithe, pasu kalpe.
Hey Raghu Veera, maha rana dheera, dhayaam kuru mayyathi mandha maneeshe,

As I am downtrodden and like an animal, Oh Hero of the clan of Raghus,
Oh Valorous God in wars, please show mercy on me as I am a slow-witted one.
And though you are my mother, sister, and father, accept me as your slave.
Thwam thu dhayalu makinchana vathsala mulpala hara mapara mudhaaram,
Rama vihaya kamayama namaya mesa janam saranam nanu yayam,
Thwath pada padma matha sithameva mudhaa khalu deva sadavasaseetham,

Oh, the merciful one, Oh God who loves the poor, Oh God who wears a garland of lily,
Oh, Rama, arguing within myself as to Whom else can I surrender to, except you,
I decided to surrender at your lotus-like feet, Oh Rama who is along with Sita.
Ya karunamrutha sindhur, anadha janothama bandhu, rajothama karee,
Bhaktha bhayormi bhavobdhi tharee sarayu thati neethata charu viharee,
Thasya Raghu pravarasya niranthara mashtaka medath anishta haram vai,
Yasthu padeth amara sa naro labhathe Achyutha rama padambhuja dasya. ॥ 9 ॥
Meaning:
He who reads without fail all sorrow removing octet of the chief of the Raghu clan
Who is nectar of the ocean of mercy, The closest relation to all orphans,
Who does only good deeds, who is the boat to the devotees,
Which helps them cross the ocean of domestic life with torrential waves,
Who wanders on the shores of River Sarayu, would get rid of death,
And becomes lucky enough to serve the lotus feet of Lord Rama.
