“Protecting the saints I walk this forest for,

So that Rakshasas to attack them no more.

Lakshmana, to a nearby cave Sita take,

Alone the demons’ destruction I will make.

Headed by Khara they all to hit the ground,

Struck by My arrows, their lives to lay down.”

Rama’s remarkable feat in Dandaka I particularly love,

That beautiful scene may I always think of.
