किं देवी प्राप्तुकामासि किमलभ्यं ददामि ते । तच्छ्रुत्वोवाच गिरिजा गुरुगौरवगर्भितम्
kiṃ devī prāptukāmāsi kimalabhyaṃ dadāmi te | tacchrutvovāca girijā gurugauravagarbhitam
“女神啊,你欲求何物?有何不可得?我将赐予你。”闻此,吉丽迦以庄重而有分量的话语作答。
Brahmā (first two pādas); Girijā/Pārvatī (reply begins; as indicated)
Scene: Brahmā, composed and benevolent, offers any boon; Girijā answers with grave, guru-like dignity—her words heavy with meaning, her posture steady, eyes unwavering.
Divine governance often restores order through dialogue and boons; dignified speech (gourava) is itself a form of dharma.
No specific tīrtha is mentioned in this verse.
None; the verse introduces a boon-offer and the beginning of Girijā’s response.
