ते मे पूज्यतमास्तेषामहामाराधकश्चिरम् । इत्यहं गायमानो वै भ्रमितः सकलां महीम्
te me pūjyatamāsteṣāmahāmārādhakaściram | ityahaṃ gāyamāno vai bhramitaḥ sakalāṃ mahīm
ସେମାନେ ମୋ ପାଇଁ ଅତ୍ୟନ୍ତ ପୂଜ୍ୟ; ଦୀର୍ଘକାଳ ଧରି ମୁଁ ସେମାନଙ୍କର ମହା-ଆରାଧକ ଥିଲି। ଏହିପରି କହି ଗାଇଗାଇ ମୁଁ ସମଗ୍ର ପୃଥିବୀ ଭ୍ରମଣ କଲି।

Reverence for the truly wise and sustained devotion to dharma leads the seeker across sacred landscapes toward right guidance.
No single tirtha is named; the verse conveys a pan-Indian pilgrimage ethos.
No formal rite is prescribed; the act described is devotional praise and seeking.
