Rama, Rama, Rama

The only word that I heard since the day I layed eyes on him

Rama, Rama, Rama

Being exiled was not a problem, if I could be with him

Rama, Rama, Rama

I chanted this over and over when Ravana took me to Lanka

Rama, Rama, Rama

The name of my beloved Swami
He would save me, I was sure of it

Rama, Rama, Rama

Ravana could not touch me as long as my love for him stayed true

Rama, Rama, Rama

That one word is what kept me going during the time I speant in that Demon's home

Rama, Rama, Rama

He would not have exiled me of his own will

Rama, Rama, Rama

My wonderful children

They looked just like him

Rama, Rama, Rama

My prescence on this earth was no longer needed
I shall return to my mother

Rama, Rama, Rama

He was the last thing I saw

Rama, Rama, Rama

The last thing I heard

Rama, Rama, Rama

He was the reason I had come to this earth, and he was the reason I left

Rama, Rama, Rama

My undying love is what kept me alive, and it is what killed me

Rama, Rama, Rama

As I closed my eyes for the last time, one word replayed in my head

Rama, Rama, Rama
