Raghuvara’s Royal Consecration
Rāma’s Coronation and Familial Reconciliation
जननीं वीक्ष्य विनयी ताटंकद्वयवर्जिताम् । कराकल्प पदाकल्परहितां बिभ्रतीं तनुम्
jananīṃ vīkṣya vinayī tāṭaṃkadvayavarjitām | karākalpa padākalparahitāṃ bibhratīṃ tanum
Pagkakita sa kanyang ina, ang mapagpakumbaba ay namasdan siyang wala ang pares ng hikaw, at taglay ang katawang salat sa mga palamuti sa kamay at sa mga palamuti sa paa.
