किं वापराद्धं तव देवदेव यन्मायया नो हृदयं तवापि । मायाभिशङ्किप्रणतार्तिहन्तर्मनो हि नो विह्वलतामुपैति

Transliteration

kiṃ vāparāddhaṃ tava devadeva yanmāyayā no hṛdayaṃ tavāpi | māyābhiśaṅkipraṇatārtihantarmano hi no vihvalatāmupaiti

Translation

ああ神々の神よ、いかなる罪が真にあなたのものとなり得ようか――あなたのマーヤーによって、私たちの心があなたからさえ離れて引き寄せられるのなら。帰依する者の苦悩を滅する御方よ、このマーヤーを恐れて、私たちの心はまことに動揺し乱れる。
