Devanagari script
संनिकृष्टश्न देवस्य न चान्यैमनिुषैर्वृतः । एष मे दास्यति धन प्रभूतं शीघ्रमेव च,यह देवताका संनिकटवर्ती है और दूसरे मनुष्योंने इसे घेर नहीं रखा है। इसलिये यह मुझे शीघ्र ही प्रचुर धन देगा
Transliteration
sannikṛṣṭaś ca devasya na cānyair manuṣair vṛtaḥ | eṣa me dāsyati dhanaṁ prabhūtaṁ śīghram eva ca ||
Translation
ಇವನು ದೇವನ ಸಮೀಪದಲ್ಲೇ ನಿಂತಿದ್ದಾನೆ; ಇತರ ಮನುಷ್ಯರು ಅವನನ್ನು ಸುತ್ತಿಕೊಂಡಿಲ್ಲ. ಆದ್ದರಿಂದ ಇವನು ನನಗೆ ಶೀಘ್ರದಲ್ಲೇ ಅಪಾರ ಧನವನ್ನು ನೀಡುವನು.
