Meaning:

O Raghava (Lord Rama)! Why do you need to conceal yourself?

The Universe itself is your form, with the sun and the moon as your eyes. By deep contemplation, inquiry, and search, I have directly perceived that you are everything, and everything is within you. There is no place in my mind for any other God. I solicit your protection
