दृढ्भक्तिरनिन्द्यात्मा श्रुतवाननृशंसवान् | वीतसम्मोहदोषश्न तस्मात् सर्वत्र पूजित:
dṛḍha-bhaktir anindyātmā śrutavān anṛśaṃsavān | vīta-sammoha-doṣaś ca tasmāt sarvatra pūjitaḥ ||
মোৰ প্ৰতি তেওঁৰ দৃঢ় ভক্তি আছে; তেওঁৰ অন্তঃস্বভাৱ নিন্দাৰহিত আৰু শুদ্ধ। তেওঁ শ্ৰুতবান আৰু কৰুণাশীল। মোহজাত দোষসমূহ তেওঁৰ পৰা দূৰ হৈছে; সেয়ে সৰ্বত্ৰ আদৃত।

Vāyudeva is speaking in praise of a devotee’s qualities, explaining why that person is universally revered: his devotion to Vāyu, purity of heart, learning, kindness, and freedom from delusion.
