Ah, how Kausalyá will rejoice

To hear again her darling's voice,

And, all thy weary wanderings o'er,

To gaze upon thy face once more.

Ah blest, for ever blest are they

Whose eyes shall see the glorious day

Of thy return in joy at last,

Thy term of toil and exile past.

Ayodhyá's lord, begin thy reign,

And day by day new glory gain.”
