तमीश्वरं पंचवक्त्रं त्रिनेत्रं पिनाकिनं चन्द्रकलावतंसम् । आलंबितापिंगजटाकलापं मध्यंगतं भास्करकोटितेजसम्
tamīśvaraṃ paṃcavaktraṃ trinetraṃ pinākinaṃ candrakalāvataṃsam | ālaṃbitāpiṃgajaṭākalāpaṃ madhyaṃgataṃ bhāskarakoṭitejasam
Natanaw niya ang Panginoon: may limang mukha, tatlong mata, taglay ang busog na Pināka; may palamuting gasuklay ng buwan; at ang mapulang-buhok na mga jata’y nakalaylay—nagniningning na tila liwanag ng sampung milyong araw.
