"alam iha kuśalaṃ pṛṣṭvā kuśalaṃ kuśalaṃ bhaved yasmāt |
kintu svaka-kuśalārthaṃ kuśalaṃ tatra ca vipṛcchyate sadbhiḥ || [udgīti]
svāgata-pṛcchā dhārṣṭyaṃ bhavati mahiṣṭhe sadeti gīr-yuktā |
tad api surārcām anu sā yadvan nirmīyate tadvat || [āryā]
kevala-vacasā toṣo vaibhava-sattve na yujyate nunam |
kintv idam apūrṇa-viṣayaṃ pūrṇe kiñcin na māty eva || [āryā]
na sataḥ svārthāpekṣā kintu sadā sā parārthaiva |
tasmād viharati tasmin para-para-vijñāpanaṃ sukhadam || [upagīti]
jyotiḥ-śāstraṃ bhavatā kṛtam atha vede' pi niṣṇātam |
tat tat para-sukha-mātrāpekṣaṃ tad idaṃ nivedyaṃ me || [upagīti]
bālo yo mama jātas tasmād adhikaś ca vāsudevo yaḥ |
nija-dṛk-sudhayā taṃ taṃ śīkitum āstāṃ bhavān karuṇaḥ || [upagīti]

"Enough of asking after your well-being here, since well-being itself becomes well-being [from your presence]; / but for the sake of their own well-being, the virtuous inquire after well-being. ||
'An inquiry after welcome is boldness toward the most exalted'—that saying is true; / yet just as it is made after worshipping the gods, so it is here. ||
Contentment by mere words is surely not proper when wealth is present; / but this applies to an incomplete object; in what is complete, nothing at all can fit. ||
A virtuous person has no regard for his own purpose, but always only for that of others; / therefore, informing him of one matter after another brings delight while he disports himself. ||
The science of astrology was composed by you, and you are proficient in the Veda; / that awaits only the happiness of others, so this is my petition: ||
The boy who has been born to me, and the one who is superior to him, the son of Vasudeva— / may you be compassionate to sprinkle each of them with the nectar of your glance!" ||
