Simple transliteration
namu rama ko kalapataru kali kalyana nivasu jo sumirata bhayo bha~ga tem tulasi tulasidasu 26
Meaning (English)
The name of Shree Rama is a wish-fulfilling tree and the abode of all good in the Kali age. By remembering it, Tulsidas — who was as intoxicated as a bhang-drinker (in ignorance) — became as pure as the tulsi plant.
Meaning (Hindi) · भावार्थ
Shree Ram का नाम कल्पतरु है और कलियुग में कल्याण का निवास है। जिसे स्मरण करने से Tulsidas भाँग से (अज्ञान रूपी नशे से) तुलसी (पवित्र) हो गए।
