Jai Sri Ram,
Rama is infinite, infinite are his virtues,
The dimensions of his story are also immeasurable,
Those whose thoughts are pure will, thereupon, feel no surprise when they hear it,
With humble supplication to all, proceed to recount the virtues of Rama, I commenced this story in the Samvat year 1631 that 1575 AD, on Tuesday, the ninth of lunar month Chaitra, story shed its luster in Ayodhya, on Rama's birth, infinite sagacious souls and gods come and pay their homage to Rama, and celebrate the Birthday festival, numerous pious men take dip in the holy water of Celestial Sarayu, muttering the name of Sri Rama,
Jai Siya Ram,
