रामस्य चरितं कृत्स्नं कुरु त्वमृषिसत्तम। धर्मात्मनो भगवतो लोके रामस्य धीमतः॥ वृत्तं कथय धीरस्य यथा ते नारदाच्छुतम्।
rāmasya caritaṃ kṛtsnaṃ kuru tvamṛṣisattama| dharmātmano bhagavato loke rāmasya dhīmataḥ|| vṛttaṃ kathaya dhīrasya yathā te nāradācchutam|
English Meaning
Do you now, O best of saints, compose the entire history of Rāma. Do you relate to the world the history of the righteous-souled and intelligent Rāma crowned with qualities. And do you, as you have heard it from Närada.
— M.N. Dutt (1891–94, public domain)
