Lalitopākhyāna: Devagaṇa-samāgamaḥ and Śrīnagaryāḥ Nirmāṇam
Assembly of Devas; Construction and Splendor of the Divine City
अथोवाच महादेवीं ब्रह्मा लोकैकनायिकाम् / इमे देवाश्च ऋषयो गन्धर्वाप्सरसां गणाः / त्वामीशां द्रष्टुमिच्छन्ति सप्रियां परमाहवे
athovāca mahādevīṃ brahmā lokaikanāyikām / ime devāśca ṛṣayo gandharvāpsarasāṃ gaṇāḥ / tvāmīśāṃ draṣṭumicchanti sapriyāṃ paramāhave
Then Brahmā spoke to Mahādevī, the sole sovereign of the worlds: “These gods, these ṛṣis, and the hosts of gandharvas and apsarases, O Lady, long to behold you with your beloved in the supreme assembly.”
