Entry into Agastya’s Hermitage and the Gift of Divine Weapons
इदं दिव्यं महच्चापं हेमरत्नविभूषितम्।।।।वैष्णवं पुरुषव्याघ्र निर्मितं विश्वकर्मणा।अमोघस्सूर्यसङ्काशो ब्रह्मदत्तश्शरोत्तमः।।।।
idaṃ divyaṃ mahac cāpaṃ hema-ratna-vibhūṣitam | vaiṣṇavaṃ puruṣa-vyāghra nirmitaṃ viśvakarmaṇā | amoghaḥ sūrya-saṅkāśo brahma-dattaḥ śarottamaḥ ||
O tigre sa mga tao, narito ang dakila at banal na busog na pinalamutian ng ginto at mga hiyas—kay Viṣṇu, na nilikha ni Viśvakarman. At narito ang pinakamainam na palaso, di nagkakamali at kasingliwanag ng araw, kaloob ni Brahmā.
O best among men this divine bow studded with gold and gems belongs to Visnu and designed by Visvakarma. This excellent, unfailing arrow, bright like the Sun, was given to me by Brahma.
