| O kingly swan of my mind! Sport at pleasure with the ladies of devotion, residing in the privacy of the mansion of Siva's feet -- a mansion rendered brilliant by the rich light diffused by the nails, white-washed with the nectarine rays of the crescent moon, rendered charming by the ruby-like lustre of the lotus-feet, and resorted to by the swans of sages who meditate on the meaning of Hamsamantra. |
