धर्मबन्धेन बद्धोऽस्मि नष्टा च मम चेतना। ज्येष्ठं पुत्रं प्रियं रामं द्रष्टुमिच्छामि धार्मिकम्॥
dharmabandhena baddho'smi naṣṭā ca mama cetanā| jyeṣṭhaṃ putraṃ priyaṃ rāmaṃ draṣṭumicchāmi dhārmikam||
English Meaning
I have been bound fast by the ties of virtue, therefore have I lost my senses. I now only wish to behold my beloved eldest son, the righteous Rama.
