Apabila kitaran yang kedua puluh tujuh tiba, demikian juga dalam yuga bernama Tretā, wahai isteri pativratā, aku akan lahir sebagai puteramu dengan nama Rāma.

FAQs
The verse foretells that in the Tretā-yuga, the speaker will be born as the listener’s son and will be known by the name Rāma.
“Pativratā” denotes a woman steadfastly devoted to her husband, highlighting marital fidelity as a valued dharmic ideal in the Purāṇic milieu.
By announcing a birth as “Rāma” in the Tretā-yuga, the verse aligns with the Purāṇic theme of divine descent (avatāra) across yugas for the restoration of dharma.
