एवं गुणगणाकीर्णा कावेरी सा सरिन्नृप । त्रिषु लोकेषु विख्याता नर्मदासङ्गमे सदा
evaṃ guṇagaṇākīrṇā kāverī sā sarinnṛpa | triṣu lokeṣu vikhyātā narmadāsaṅgame sadā
Ainsi, ô roi, la rivière Kāverī est-elle remplie de cohortes de vertus, toujours renommée dans les trois mondes à sa confluence avec la Narmadā.
Sūta (deduced, Revā Khaṇḍa narrative style)
Tirtha: Kāverīsaṅgama with Narmadā
Type: sangam
Listener: King (nṛpa addressed)
Scene: A luminous confluence where two rivers meet; personified river-goddesses (Kāverī and Narmadā) adorned with lotuses and water-jewels, surrounded by sages and pilgrims.
A sacred river’s sanctity is intensified at a confluence; such sites are celebrated as universally renowned and spiritually potent.
The Kāverī–Narmadā saṅgama (confluence) is explicitly praised.
None directly in this verse; it is a praise-statement (māhātmya) of the saṅgama.
