Devanagari script

चक्रतीर्थे च कः स्नानं कारयिष्यति मामिह । को वा दैत्यगणानेताञ्छक्तो जेतुं महामृधे । तं विना पुण्डरीकाक्षं भक्तानामभयप्रदम्

Translation

“Dan di Cakratīrtha, siapakah yang akan memungkinkan aku mandi suci di sini? Atau siapakah yang mampu menewaskan bala Daitya ini dalam peperangan besar—tanpa Puṇḍarīkākṣa, Tuhan bermata teratai, pemberi keberanian tanpa takut kepada para bhakta?”
