Devanagari script
विष्णो: सहायानृक्षीषु वानरीषु च सर्वश: । जनयथ्वं सुतान् वीरान् कामरूपबलान्वितान्,“वहाँ रीछों और वानरोंकी स्त्रियोंसे ऐसे वीर पुत्रको उत्पन्न करो, जो इच्छानुसार रूप धारण करनेमें समर्थ, बलवान् तथा भूतलपर अवतीर्ण हुए भगवान् विष्णुके योग्य सहायक हों!
Translation
«Zeugt überall unter den Bärinnen und Affinnen heldenhafte Söhne—kraftvoll und fähig, nach Belieben Gestalt zu wandeln—damit sie würdige Helfer Viṣṇus seien, des Herrn, der auf die Erde herabgestiegen ist.»
