DrsA drAghIyasyA dara-dalita-nIlotpala-rucA

davIyAmsam dInam snapaya krpayA mAm api Sive;

anenAyam dhanyo bhavati na ca te hAnir iyatA

vane vA harmye vA sama0kara-nipAto himakarah

 

 

O Spouse of Siva! may Thou graciously bathe even me, who stands

helpless at a far off distance, with Thy far-reaching glance,

beautiful like the slightly blossomed blue lily. This [mortal] will

derive the summum bonum of existence from such [action]. By such

action, no loss is after all sustained by Thee. The snow-beamed

[Moon] sheds the selfsame lustre on a forest as well as on a mansion.

 

The ArthAntara-nyAsa in the last line may be noted. The votary

appeals to the Devi to extend her glances, which are capable of being

extended to an unlimited distance, to him also as he stands separated

by a very long distance from her holy presence.
