Whose is the mighty hand will tame

And hold the glory of the flame?

In all the worlds above, below,

Not one, O fair of form, I know

Who from this isle in fight could rend

The lady whom these arms defend.

Fair Queen, o'er Lanká's island reign,

Sole mistress of the wide domain.

Gods, rovers of the night like me,

And all the world thy slaves will be.
