O Mareecha, illustrious demon
Sloka:
The gallant king of demons, pushed by the hand of death, went to meet Mareecha to plot the kidnapping of Rama’s wife Sita.
O Mareecha, illustrious demon and uncle, in my mind
grows an immense grief, please hear me
Dasaratha’s son Rama
came to the forest with his brother
O noble Rakshasa, my sister
Soorpanakha at the hands of Lakshmana
Got mutilated, ears and nose chopped
