Translation
Rāmacandra, the Supreme Lord, chief of self-controlled, resided in that palace with his dear, pleasing wife Sītā.
Rāma resides with His pleasure potency Sītā and enjoys complete peace. The Lord and His consort, settled together, are the very image of fulfilled stillness — peace is not the absence of joy but the maturity of it.
