Rām Rakṣā Stotra
कौसल्येयो दृशौ पातु विश्वामित्रप्रियः श्रुती । घ्राणं पातु मखत्राता मुखं सौमित्रिवत्सलः ॥
kausalyeyo dṛśau pātu viśvāmitrapriyaḥ śrutī | ghrāṇaṃ pātu makhatrātā mukhaṃ saumitrivatsalaḥ ||
May Kausalyā's son guard my eyes, Viśvāmitra's beloved my ears, the protector of the sacrifice my nose, and the one fond of Lakṣmaṇa my mouth.
