“I trust no cares invade thy peace,
While holy works and zeal increase;
That thou content with scanty food
All touch of ire hast long subdued;
That all thy vows are well maintained
While peace of mind is surely gained,
That reverence of the saints who taught
Thy faithful heart due fruit has brought.”
In plain words: Rama kindly asks Shabari if she is at peace, if her spiritual practice is growing, and if she has conquered anger while living on little food. He asks if she keeps her vows, has peace of mind, and has been rewarded for serving her teachers.
