Veda nāyaka datta pādamāśraye (Chorus)
I surrender to the foot of Datta, the leader of scripture.
āśrita prāṇināṃ sadyaḥ khāditākhila khedam
jñāna pradānena hṛdaya medurita modam ॥
It swallows grief of all surrendering devotees,
It pleases heart by giving spiritual knowledge,
nyāsa mātreṇaiva nāśita nāstika vādam
nakha kānti kiraṇai ranādyavidyā bhedam ॥
By entry itself, the atheism loses its address,
Infinite ignorance breaks by rays of its nails.
