श्रवणादीनि पंचैव नक्षत्राणि पृथक्पृथक् । तव पूजाकृते पंच क्रतुतुल्यानि तानि च । भविष्यंति न संदेहः सर्वतीर्थमयानि च
śravaṇādīni paṃcaiva nakṣatrāṇi pṛthakpṛthak | tava pūjākṛte paṃca kratutulyāni tāni ca | bhaviṣyaṃti na saṃdehaḥ sarvatīrthamayāni ca
শ্ৰৱণ আদি পাঁচ নক্ষত্ৰ—প্ৰত্যেকেই পৃথক—তোমাৰ পূজাৰ বাবে পালন কৰিলে, সিহঁত পাঁচ বৈদিক যজ্ঞৰ সমান হ’ব; সন্দেহ নাই, সিহঁতে সকলো তীৰ্থৰ পুণ্য বহন কৰিব।
