The whole world echoed with the name
'Rama,'
THE RAMAYANA
धन्यं यशस्यमानुष्यं राज्ञां च विजयावहम् ।
आदिकाव्यमिदं त्वार्
This first great Vedic poem, composed
of old by Valmiki, bestows (on all)
wealth, fame and long life and on kings
victory as well.
यः पठेच्छृणुयाल्लोके नरः पापाद्विमुच्यते ।
ऐश्वर्
Whoever reads or listens to it in this
world, will indeed be freed from (all) sin.
To him, prosperity and birth of progeny
will surely result.
एवमेतत् पुरावृत्तम् आख्यानं भद्रमस्तु वः ।
प्रव्याहरत विस्त्रब्धं बलं विष्णोः प्रवर्धताम् ॥
May this ancient story bring good to all
of you.
May the greatness of Vishnu increase !
॥ श्रीरामाय नमः ॥
