his chest illuminated by the Kaustubha jewel, dressed in yellow silk garments, / possessing the splendor of a deep blue lotus, of very smooth and charming form, / with an attractive lotus shining in the pool of his navel, and lovely pink lips, / with teeth like pomegranate seeds, the sky illuminated by his diadem, / his feet praised by the king of the gods, extolled by Sanaka and others, / his supreme majesty sung of by celestial seers such as Nārada and others, / his mind rejoiced by devotees like Prahlāda and others, / holding the staff of the Śārṅga bow, punisher of all demons, / slayer of Madhu and Kaiṭabha, portender of Kaṃsa's destruction— / that supreme Brahman which is absolute liberation, formless, beyond perception, / which had transformed into a human form for the sake of the devotion of his devotees, / whose form the Vedas knew not, nor was it declared by the Upaniṣads, / and which Brahmā and the other gods had not perceived—he became a guest of the sage's eyes. / Filled with joy, his head bowed to the ground, / that sage Agnibindu of great austerity bowed down to Hṛṣīkeśa. / With palms joined at his head, he praised with supreme devotion / Acyuta, the destroyer of Bali, who was seated upon a broad stone. / There near the Pañcanada, frequented by Mārkaṇḍeya and others, / that Agnibindu with a satisfied mind praised Govinda. / Agnibindu said: / "Om, salutations, O lotus-eyed one, granter of purity both outer and inner! / O Puruṣa with a thousand heads, a thousand eyes, a thousand feet! / With a mind free of dualities, I bow to your pair of feet which remove all dualities, / O Viṣṇu, praised by Indra and the gods! / Even the words of Bṛhaspati do not succeed in praising him; / who in this world is capable of praising him? Here, devotion is more powerful. / How can the Lord, the Ruler, who is beyond the reach of the mind and senses, / beyond speech, be praised by people of low intellect like me? / The Lord whom words do not penetrate, whom the mind does not conceive here— / who could have the capacity to praise him who transcends mind and speech?
