Though a boy, this son of Dasaratha will be

more than enough to break this bow

 

Your wish will be fulfilled today

O fair-minded king of kings!

 

O crown of Raghu clan, this is Siva’s bow;

young man, string it and break it now

 

O King, these are the sons of Dasaratha

I brought them along to protect

the sacrificial rites and the boys killed

the demons and saved the rites

 

Then we proceeded here to see you

and the famous Siva’s bow.

Rama, the crown of Manu dynasty, is keen to

see the famous bow, please show it to him.
