rAmA, the moon for the ocean of ravilkula {sUryavamSha]

dark as a cloud, listen to my plea, rAma with an exalted name[p]

Slayer of demons, protector of the sacifice [sacrificial fire] of the sages,

liberator of ahalya, [you] caused the bow to break.

[you] held the hands of sIta, [born from the earth].

[you] gladden the hearts of warriors, listen to my plea, kalyANarAmA [ap]

defending he words of the father, is your best quality, your pAdukA [sandal] is the crown

of Bharata, your arrival in the woods has brought moonlight [to the woods]

residing in sAkEta is the same to you, [as residing in the woods]

ShyAmA,[the dark hued] listen to my plea, resider of the woods. [c1]

your brothers are holding the canopy for you,saumitri [lakshmana] is near you,

with vaidEhi, mAruti saluting you, look at us with your merciful glance,

protect us, your fame increases like the moon of the bright fortnight, [ShuklapakSha]

with sixteen kaLas,you are the fulfilment of our vows.rAma, the crown prince. [c2]

******************************

[16 kaLas of the moon ]::

{The Moon has 16 kalas, or phases. Out of these 15 are visible to us
and the 16th is beyond our visibility. The 16 kalas are: 1.Amrita,
2.Manada, 3.Poosha, 4.Tusthi, 5.Pusthi, 6.Rati, 7.Dhruti, 8.Sasichini,

[Sripada]

hi Do any one of you know the composer of this song?

[Sreeni Rajarao]

Deleted, after noting Lakshman-ji's clarification below!

[Lakshman]

The request for the composer's name is for the 2nd song that starts with a different pallavi line - rAmA ravikula jalanidhi sOmA nIrada shyAmA ...
