Sri-Ramnavami is dedicated to the memory of Lord Rama. It occurs on the ninth day (navami). The festival falls on the ninth day of the Chaitra month of Hindu lunar year in ‘Shukla paksha’ or waxing moon.
Ramnavami occurs in the month of March. Celebrations begin with a prayer to the Sun early in the morning. At midday, when Lord Rama is supposed to have been born, a special prayer is performed. In northern India especially, an event that draws popular participation is the Ramnavami procession. The main attraction in this procession is a gaily decorated chariot in which four persons are dressed up as Rama, his brother Laxman, his queen Sita and his disciple Hanuman. The chariot is accompanied by several other persons dressed up in ancient costumes as work by Rama's solders. The procession is a gusty affair with the participants shouting praises echoing the happy days of Rama's reign.
Therefore, the festival is also referred to as Chaitra Masa Suklapaksha Navami.
Ram jinka naam hai, Ayodhya jinka dhaam hai,
Aise raghunandan ko, hamara pranam hai
Aapko aur apke parivaar ko Ram Navami ki haardik shubhkaamnaye.
Bhaji mann Ram siyapati
Raghukul eese
Deen bandhu dukh taaran
Kosaladhees
Ram kisi bhaanti bhaji,
Ravan ki reeti taji.
Jai Shri Ram!
Ram ji ki jyoti se noor milta hai
Sabke dilo ko shurur milta hai
Jo bhi jata hai ram ji ke dwar
Kuch na kuch jarur milta hai.
“Happy Ram Navami”.
Bajre ki roti, aam ka achar,
Suraj ki kirne, khushiyo ki bahar,
Chanda ki chandni,apano ka pyar,
Mubarak ho aapko
Ramanavami ka tyohar.
