Simple Translation
1754. When Rāvana, the king of Lankā
surrounded with oceans with rolling waves,
afflicted the gods in the sky with his valor and conquered them,
Rāma went there to bring his wife Sita back,
bent his bow, fought with Rāvana
and made the ten crowned heads of the king of Lankā
fall on the earth like the fruits of palm trees.
He stays in Thirukkannangudi
where flocks of forest peacocks dance
and the clouds roar like drums
and the lined bees drink honey and sing sweet music.
