Fresh English translation
(5) I bow to Sītā and Rāma, seated at the center of the rāsa circle, eager for the joy of rasa and surrounded by their companions. In kāvya meter, Rāmacaraṇa bows at the feet of Gaṇeśa, Śambhu, Brahmā, Sarasvatī, Gaṅgā, Gaurī, the moon, the sun, the ascetics, the guardians of the directions, Agni, Wind, the Veda, Varuṇa, and all the gods. He places upon himself the lotus-foot dust of Viṣṇu, Śeṣa, Vyāsa, the divine sages, Śuka, Sanaka and the ancients, Dhruva, Nārada, Hanumān, Prahlāda, Vālmīki, and all devotees. In dohā meter: (1) I bow to the congregation of saints, whose limit even Śiva cannot describe; may I live at their door, accepting even their scraps. (2) I place the bliss-bestowing dust of Janaka's daughter's feet upon my head—the dust that witnessed Bharata become an incarnation of love. (3) I bow to the name Rāma, though the mouth cannot utter its measure, just as a wife feels deep modesty in saying her husband's name. (4) That name is filled with Brahmā, Hari, Hara, fire, sun, moon, and rasa; Rāmacaraṇa says its course is beyond telling.
