सा तु पद्मा विशालाक्षी प्रज्वलतीव तेजसा । चचार सा च सावित्री व्रतं यद्भृगुणोदितम्
sā tu padmā viśālākṣī prajvalatīva tejasā | cacāra sā ca sāvitrī vrataṃ yadbhṛguṇoditam
Gadis bak teratai itu, bermata luas, menyala seakan-akan dengan cahaya batin; Sāvitrī pun menunaikan Sāvitrī-vrata sebagaimana diperintahkan oleh resi Bhṛgu.
