Is there anyone who wish to cross the river VaitaraNi?
(If you wish then be ready), the boat is about to leave.
Who is (really) willing to cross?, and who is there to take us across this river?
Is there anyone in Kali-Yuga to take our boat across the river?
O' heart, then pray our lord Rama to take us across the river VaitaraNi.

One Sakhi (friend) tells another Sakhi:
O' Sakhi (friend), when Sarayu worshiped, she met the consort of Sita, lord Rama!
Siyavar Rama satisfied Sarayu by playing his pastimes of its' bank!
Similarly, Yamuna worshiped Krishna and Shri Krishna appeared!
The boat is about to leave the bank..is there anyone to cross the river?

Sailor of this boat, was Yajna-VishNu in Satyuga, were four brothers (Rama-Lakshman-Bharat-Shatrughna) in Treta!
In Treta four brothers, and in Dwapara, Lord Krishna gave liberation to people.
However, who is there in This Kaliyuga? The boat is just to leave the bank (the material world), is there anyone to cross this river?

(Sakhis ponder, still there is no need to worry if Rama is not personally present on earth in Kaliyuga to liberate people, as) Rama Naam is easily available to all of us as the supreme sailor which takes people across the river in this Kaliyuga!
So pray to Rama to take us also across the river!
The boat is about to leave the bank, is there anyone to cross this river?

(Upon chanting Rama Naam), Shri Rama himself comes, Lakshman comes, and along with them, the mother of whole universe Sita Ji also comes to take us across the river! (Such is the glory of Rama Naam)
