Translation
M. N. Dutt (1891–94), via Valmiki Ramayan DatasetRama, elder brother to Lakshmana is a tiger among men, a subduer of enemies, powerful like an intoxicated elephant, and a great charioteer. Blue in complexion, he has a face like the full Moon. He has lotuslike eyes, kneelong arms and fleshy clavicles. Endowed with a sweet nature, he always speaks the truth and the first to speak to others. When he roams the forest, charming like the Moon and pleasing to the whole world, he will surely make it look graceful.

Gita Press, Gorakhpur (Hindi, via ramcharit.in)‘लक्ष्मण के ज्येष्ठ भ्राता श्रीराम का मुख पूर्ण चन्द्रमा के समान मनोहर है। उनके शरीर की कान्ति श्याम, गले की हँसली मांस से ढकी हुई, भुजाएँ घुटनों तक लंबी और नेत्र कमल के समान सुन्दर हैं। । वे सामने आने पर पहले ही बातचीत छेड़ते हैं तथा मीठे और सत्य वचन बोलते हैं। श्रीराम शत्रुओं का दमन करने वाले और महान बलवान हैं। समस्त जगत् के लिये सौम्य (कोमल स्वभाव वाले) हैं। उनका दर्शन चन्द्रमा के समान प्यारा है
