Meaning:
(P) Delighter/Husband (ramaNa) of sItA (jAnakI), and son (nandana) of daSaratha, Hey rAma with a moon-like (sarvarISa) face (vadanA).
(AP) One who has tender sentiments (vatsala) towards the miserably wretched (dIna), you are the repository/ocean (jaladhE) of compassion (dayA), Oh rAmA. Wielding the kOdaNDa in your hands (pANE), you are exemplary (SIla) in granting (dAna) boons (vara).
(C1) You are the one who protected (samrakshaNa kara) the festival/yagnya (makha) of viSvAmitra (kauSika), and the one who granted (vara) ahalyA (gautama kAnta = gautamA's wife) her original (nija) form (rUpa). You then went on to break (daLana kara) the bow (cApa) of the mighty (mahita) SivA (mahESvara) and subsequently accepted (dhara) the var mAlA from the hands (kara) of the daughter (tanayA) of janaka (maithila - king of mythila) - sItA.
(C2) One whose hands are resplendent (virAjita) with a bow(cApa) and arrow (sAyaka), you are the one whose divine (Subha) feet (caraNa) are tended to (sEvita) by lakSmaNa. Oh rAmA, the lotus (sarvarISa) faced one (vadanA)! you are prayed to by all (sakala) the exemplary (vara) sages (muni) and ascetics (yOgi).
(C3) Oh one whose feet (caraNa) protected (pAlana) the demon (daitya) who took the form of a crow (kAka) and with beautiful/shining (vilAsa) eyes (lOcana) like a lotus (ambOruha). You offered protection (abhayasta) to vibhISaNa who sought (Agata = came) refuge (SaraNa) in you. You are the one who has manifested (vilasita) in my (mama) heart (hridayE) permanently/always (satatam).
