For exile in the forest shade.

E'en as of old she used to rove

Delighted in the city's grove,

Thus, even thus she joys to tread

The woodlands uninhabited.

Like a young child, her face as fair

As the young moon, she wanders there.

What though in lonely woods she stray

Still Ráma is her joy and stay:

All his the heart no sorrow bends,
