Meaning: Personification of unalloyed bliss! Darling of Dasharatha! Sleep soundly. One who delights in the company of sItA, the daughter of Mother Earth! Gem of the Raghu race! With curly fore-locks and the eyes matching the brilliance of the sun and the mellow lustre of the moon, how daintily you are lying on the soft couch formed by the ciols of AdishESA! O one who transcends the pairs of opposite attributes! O one with whom viruous attributes sit with natural grace! Your soft and gentle speech fascinates as much as your ravishing beauty. You are surrounded by devotees and worshipped by tyAgarAjA. Lord, sleep, lulled by the lullaby of this humble devotee.
