Meaning:

Peerless (“samaana evaru”) Rama ! The Raghu race (“vamsa”) attained supremacy thanks to your advent therein. Your beloved Sita (“bhama”) is like a tender and fragrant creeper on your bosom. She is the parrot (“chiluka”) gracing the devotion (“bhakyanu”)  to you. You have (“gala”) brothers (“sodharulu”) whose words (“mataladu”)  drip with sweetness (“paluku palukulaku”) of honey (“thene”). We are privileged to have you as our family (“kula”) deity (“Vibhusha”). You are gentle and soft in speech (“Mrudusubhasha”).
