Translation

King Indra said: O Supreme Lord, You are our deliverer and protector. Our shares of sacrifices, which are actually Yours, have been recovered from the demon by You. Because the demoniac king Hiraṇyakaśipu was most fearsome, our hearts, which are Your permanent abode, were all overtaken by him. Now, by Your presence, the gloom and darkness in our hearts have been dissipated. O Lord, for those who always engage in Your service, which is more exalted than liberation, all material opulence is insignificant. They do not even care for liberation, not to speak of the benefits of kāma, artha and dharma.

प्रत्यानीता: परम भवता त्रायता न: स्वभागा दैत्याक्रान्तं हृदयकमलं त्वद‍्गृहं प्रत्यबोधि। कालग्रस्तं कियदिदमहो नाथ शुश्रूषतां ते मुक्तिस्तेषां न हि बहुमता नारसिंहापरै: किम्॥ ४२

हिन्दी टीका-पाठ

इन्द्रने कहा— पुरुषोत्तम! आपने हमारी रक्षा की है। आपने हमारे जो यज्ञभाग लौटाये हैं, वे वास्तवमें आप (अन्तर्यामी)-के ही हैं। दैत्योंके आतंकसे संकुचित हमारे हृदयकमलको आपने प्रफुल्लित कर दिया। वह भी आपका ही निवासस्थान है। यह जो स्वर्गादिका राज्य हमलोगोंको पुन: प्राप्त हुआ है, यह सब कालका ग्रास है। जो आपके सेवक हैं, उनके लिये यह है ही क्या? स्वामिन्! जिन्हें आपकी सेवाकी चाह है, वे मुक्तिका भी आदर नहीं करते। फिर अन्य भोगोंकी तो उन्हें आवश्यकता ही क्या है॥ ४२॥
