This is written in Hindi(Awadi rather, the language of Ayodhya and of the
rAmacharitmAnasa).
1) The stuti itself is simple . The 1st part of each half-verse is sung
with the pitch going up [ :-) ] . The 2nd part is rather toned down . Until
someone comes up with a good idea on how to convey the pitch.
The spacing has been increased at the pauses.(It is possible that each
shloka is 12 - - 10 - - -/ 12 - - 10/- - - - )
2) The last 4 lines are repeated during rAmacharitamAnasa chanting.
