    Kids

    King Janaka: (loud voice)

    Welcome, great kings and young


    princes! This swayamvara is for my
    beautiful daughter, Sita. Here is the
    mighty bow that Lord Shiva gifted me.
    Whoever can lift this heavy bow and
    string it will win my daughter's hand in
    marriage. May the best man win!

    (Suitor 1 tries but fails to lift the bow.


    Suitor 2 tries. He too cannot lift it. One
    by one, they all try and fail to even make
    the bow move.
    Rama and Lakshmana enter. Rama looks
    at Sita, and they smile at each other.

    Rama lifts the bow, strings it and with a


    great sound like thunder, breaks it.

    The audience claps.)

    Janaka: Prince Rama of Ayodhya has


    done it!

    Rama (bows): With your blessing, I


    would like to marry your daughter.

    (Sita places a garland on Rama's neck,


    conveying her consent to the marriage)
    Janaka: I give my consent. You are
    strong and wise, and I believe you will
    be a suitable husband for my daughter.

    Narrator: Rama and Sita get married and


    travel to Ayodhya. They are welcomed
    warmly by King Dasharatha and the
    people of Ayodhya.
