रूपेन त्वं असदृशो पुण्यवन्तो वर्णेन तुह्यं सदृशो न प्राप्तो ।
सुसंप्रजानो मरुपूजनीयो लोकैकवीरो स्थितो वृक्षमूले ॥ १२२ ॥

rūpena tvaṃ asadṛśo puṇyavanto varṇena tuhyaṃ sadṛśo na prāpto |
susaṃprajāno marupūjanīyo lokaikavīro sthito vṛkṣamūle || 122 ||

“Thou art without a peer in beauty, Virtuous One; none equal to thee in beauty can be found. Mindful, worshipped by devas, the pre-eminent hero in the world, thou standest at the foot of the tree. (122)
